Supras are fast because they have turbo so i think if you want to beat a supra get TT for your ls1.

Only 25 psi? Holy crap! (Just joking around)

Supra's are fast, but they are fast because they are good RWD cars, with a turbo stock. They aren't the greatest thing to man. Just like the Cobra, it has FI stock. It really saves you money, and thats what makes it go. I'm not complaining I didn't have a blower or something stock. I'm just saying that these cars may be overrated considering, or some people forget that.

This is one of the most ridiculous claims I have ever heard. Try 800-1000hp before needing to builf the bottom end!

Yea most people spend 3 times that, but really don't need to.

Greddy t88 kit-3800
Fuel system-2200
Standalone(AEM)-2000
Clutch-600
Suspension-1200

That alone would net you atleast 8-900 hp, with under 10,000. Oh plus tuning $500

That was funny.

Since we are talking about Supras here, watch this video. This car is driven on the street DAILY, has A/C, radio, subwoofer and a full interior.

He goes to the track, slaps the slicks, runs, then takes them out puts his street tires and goes home.

Nice death bud. Nothing to be ashamed of. You were just sleepered.

Wow.. by looking at my partial sig of a car I don't have (same setup went 12.3 @ 115mph) you would probably be correct. Your the one with the obvious inferiority issues.. supras are not to be taken lightly. The comments you made above made it fairly obvious you are uneducated in the world of BPU Poopras.

Show me where I was 'talking ****' and i would gladly apologize...as for my comment regarding your obvious misunderstanding and 'Well IF I had a turbo' argument.. you had it coming.

Im sure you use the same argument regarding 03+ Cobras too...

And if you want a lil of the Z0h when I get it... I would gladly run..win or lose..not a big deal to me.


*edit* BTW noticed in another post you just installed the cam and your untuned..might want to take it easy for a while before you go calling people out. I would get a tune in that thing and take it easy for a while.

It's sad to see people on this site with no respect for japanese super cars. Supras can handle 1000 rwhp on a stock bottom end and can easily bolt on 400+ rwhp... if that is considered rice now days, I give up.
