I've seen that vid before, and I'm more curious about it now because the kit on my car is very similar to the TTi design. Anybody know what size turbo was on the t/a there and/or how much power those cars were making at the time?

I think he had the race kit if I remember right, and power wise I think around 700rwhp but not positive, its been awhile since that vid was made.

That T/A has the TTI race kit and if I'm not mistaken it came with the T76 turbo. Powerwise, I think the T/A was in the 700rwhp range and the Supra was in the 600rwhp range. I must have watched that about a million times when I first saw that vid. LOL! Awesome race, and super awesome T/A!

I know he has a setup very similar to MightyMouse now and it does close to a 1000RWHP on E85.

No, that was Mecham. Video came out years before 2000 Tran Zam built his car.
