"My Supra ran a 13.47 ET in stock form. My old 89 TTA ran a 13.52 ET in stock form. What is your point? Nobody is debating mods/cost/stock anything. Please stay on topic. Sheesh... "

I have no point and neither does this 8 second supra on drag radials post on an ls1 board. However for further explanation to those too busy defending this and that and not listening to the argument, what I was attempting to say is the forced induction thing has been done by both manufactures (import and domestic)with equal results ,however I was just curious to why there are no fast all motor imports that don't compare cost effectively to domestics. Just and observation and in no way is it offensive or any more off topic than most of the posts on this thread.

Potentially one of the most smug, condescending, 'holier than thou' responses I've ever seen on a message board.

While you might be correct that his post (which also happened to have a big smiley icon at the the end of it) has little or nothing to do with the topic at hand, responding in such a manner can certainly only create more friction and flaming...maybe consider simply avoiding the insults and attitude in the future. Maybe not.

I don't see why everyone is "hating" on this post. I for one am a FAN OF ALL CARS THAT ARE FAST. These numbers rock and show testament to how strong Supra's run. I am assumming this is with a STOCK block and how much power/boost it can handle. I have to admit that Supra's are pretty impressive with all the good times/numbers that they put out.

I agree this is a forum for our cars.. If anything we should be happy that our performance parts do not cost as much as the Supras.. I have friends that have to take out 2nd mortgages to mod their Supras... One day we will catch up. There is no way we will not figure out how to boost the hell out of a ls1. There are already twin turbo'd LT1's over 1000rwhp..

Sure you will...if the ford 5.0 crowd can figure out how to keep their heads on i'm sure you LS1 guys can too plus you have an ADVANTAGE over them
aluminum heads to an aluminum block (if you decide to the keep the aluminum) They figured it out and you guys can too, just takes the pockets/determination to do it
