ok guys, soo this 7afe engine is a real pain in the butt although i love it.... i just had my exhaust put on and my resonator removed and i love the sound and everything but the deal is that i can now tell that i'm blowing some smoke >> and most likely the piston and rings and pistons.. so crap i need to redo those anyone know where i can find a good set of pistons and rings and/or just new rings cause i don't wanna poop out my engine just yet >> >>

Who told you that it was the rings and pistons?
How much mileage is on the car?

What color is the smoke? Black/Blue or white? New exhausts usually have chemicals inside and you'll blow some smoke until ur burn them off. And not always is it a piston or ring. If ur looking for stock components u can type in a yahoo search and go to any one of the toyota parts places, they're basically all the same.

well its not a new system i had custom pipes bent for me so it's not that and i know the smoke is a blueish white so it's oil (motocross helped me there lol) plus i'm also figuring that racing is a factor from the extreme high reving and working the engine alot. soo i'm pretty sure it's the rings... but i did try the yahoo search it kinda sux... but i'll keep tryin

RE: Your question, my SILLY hood scoop i got off ebay, its fiberglass it cost around $80. But watch out, its SOOOOO SILLY!
