Tacoma Fuel Upgrade Progress

Tacoma VZN170 A few weekends ago, I completed the boring work on the Tacoma: new water pump, timing belt, thermostat, and all accessory belts. Then I pulled off the supercharger / intake manifold assembly. I have a remanufactured supercharger from Magnusun to use, since mine was still noisy after the snout bearing replacement last year.
I was intending to use the Supra 7MGTE injectors, based on comments at the CustomTaco.com forums that they would or 'should' fit. Not even close. So I ordered a set of 318cc injectors from URD, which should arrive today, I hope. Anyone need a set of cleaned/tested Supra 440s? Since I want the MAP ECU2 to do realtime barometric air density correction using its internal MAP sensor, I've installed a GM 3-bar MAP sensor to measure engine MAP. I was too cheap to buy the MAP ECU harness, so I ordered all the right Molex part numbers and made my own, finishing it with self-adhering silicon harness-building tape. Nice! Here is the harness pictured with the GM 3-bar MAP sensor: I drilled and tapped the firewall for some 5mm bolts, mounted the sensor, and ran the new cable to the MAP ECU2 in my glovebox. Hopefully, like I said, the 318cc Bosch injectors will arrive today, so I can get them installed tonight, and the supercharged put back on. I'll have to cut the stock injector harness clips off, and solder on the new Bosch models. HERE are the injectors I ordered from URD. I need to figure out my PCV mods first....
