Just wonderin how those supra guys can punch like 100 and go to 150 in no time? Is it the turbo(s)? Thats what Im thinking. Can this be acheived with an LS1?

Turbo, nitrous, supercharger. Throw enough boost or juice at something and it can run like a bat out of hell.
My buddy Seth has a Procharged Trans Am that has beaten 800hp Supra's on a roll. Click the link in my sig, and then click the cars picture. There are video's of daily driven vehicles that can do exactly that.

Speed is just a question of money. How fast do you want to go?
