thats all i got for pics right now. yes its a turbo. its a 71 series single. use to have a smaller turbo on that put out about 680rwhp on c16. havent tunned the new set up yet cause i thought i was going to put a th400 in there over the winter. but my funds have run short so i will be staying with the 6 speed for another season. with the new set up untunned and pump gas, i ran 11.7 at 120 on only 15 pounds. she will be tunned for 35

35 psi sounds crazy, Nice car I wanted to get one, but the price range for a supra is a little out of reach for me. Once you get the supra running right and get some numbers put up another post, I'd like to see what 35 will do.

That's a nice supra (97?)...I used to have one (96) and loved the motors high rpm pull and great handling. The turbo lag kinda sucked though. If I had more money to spend when I recently got my 99 t/a it would have been another tt supra. The new one would have some nitrous to get on boost more quickly.
