The car just recently made 1520rwhp but they dont intend on ever running it at that power level (55+lbs of boost, and 125+shot).

Watch out for TX2k5 he WILL be running it down the track with ALL 1520RWHP maybe a little bit more Hello 7's with a full weight street car!

Supra owners are very cocky sometimes. I called out a local supra to race last summer in a very very friendly way, and he started the **** talking. I didn't get to race him for some reason, but I will this summer and i'll post the video when it's done.

Um.... i doubt that, unless they have changed their mind. They said they only put it at that level "KILL" to see if anything would fail in attempt to max it out. They (Sound Performance) stated they have no intentions of running the car at that level anytime.

nothing pisses me off more when people say take a 1.8l vtec and make it 7l and see how much more power it puts out...there are advantages to each engine...less rotating weight mean you can do different stuff ie higher rpms...this dude is comparing a n/a engine to a turbo engine......he also said a 7L with a a turbo and a 400hp shot is only making 1000hp and 700ft/lbs...haha yea right...first off the torque would be way higher

Yeah, it's sorta' like we (Supra owners) don't believe some of the stuff posted here, either LOL. You see, no matter what car forum you are on, there are ALWAYS dumbazzez posting stupid crap due to their lack of knowledge.

Anyway, best to just ignore those kinds of posts and go for the ones that make sense in order to actually learn something. That's what I try to do.... and not just on Supra Forums, either.

It would, however, be great to post up a video of this a$$ whooping, and then invite the owner to the thread so he can wallow in his shame.

I wasn't accusing supra owners of anything and I do know a fair amount of bs gets tossed around everywhere(even here). The only reason I joined supraforums was because I like the car.....

I think you have me mistaken with someone who cares. Marko's car is fast, but id be more impressed if it were a 6spd car.

I hated racing supras from a roll, until I got the spray. There are some fast supras here in atlanta.
