I think so...He told me that he was runnin the factory twins at 20psi, race gas tune, upgraded intercooler, and had some weight reduction (Backseat was pulled). I was told it traps 117-120 range. I don't know too much about supras other than they haul ***!! Who was the guy that had the green one 7-8yrs ago??
That sounds about right for the Supra. Those stock turbos are definatly maxed at that boost level though. Nick blew his stock twins in his supra at 18#'s of boost.
The guy you raced is probably running a mid 12 if he hooks up well. They run high 13's stock. The crazy thing is (and is mainly why I want one) you can just buy a big turbo, upgrade the exhaust, fuel system, and get a tune and run just as fast as my Camaro that has tens of thousands invested. Upgrade a little further and you can have a 800 RWHP monster for about 10-15k invested.

The green one was owned by my buddy Nick. He sold it a few years back. The guy he sold it to is now offering it back to Nick but I don't think he can afford it.

Got the fuel tank back from Alex. Looks great! Now I gotta clean it up, paint it, reinstall it, and plump the fuel system and I might be able to bring it out.

I know there are several of you who are doing your own work, and I need to know if you will be done around or at this time. Please let me know who ALL is interested? I kinda know who needs one, but need an actual head count?
P.S. Sorry Ken and Mike, you too won't be done for this!
Thanks, Joe

That's part of it. There's a big V8RX-7 meet down in Indy next weekend. Friday we'll be at ORP for a drag night, then Saturday we'll be at ORP for Winged Warrior, then off to the Suds, then off to cruise around Indy. Sunday we come back, I think that's the general idea at least.
Blake is going to be shitting on EVERYONE.
