But ease up a bit...

I didnt say I knew what I was talking about... now did I?
23 PSI is alot of Boost Pressure.


So what if the motor/turbo can handle alot more?

Just informing people. That is what I am here for.

Hmm.. it's a supra... no wonder he didn't wnat to post his ET. What do a 400hp supra and a 700hp supra have in common? They both run in the 12's. :-P I supra trapping that speed I would guess to be running a low 12.....

I here that statement weekly, it's actually not true. It's a driver thing just like every car.

It is mostly true because it happens more often than not. I saw two Supras race each other at the track last time I went- low 12's at 121 and 122. Then again, you see Zo6's like mine run anything from high 11's (Ranger, JRod) to high 13's. I seem to run consistent mid 12's though.

Seems a lot of Supras have HIGH traps but slower ETs. My buddies BPU OBD1 MK4 Supra ran consitant 12.99-13.1's, but he'd trap 117-119 which was a high trap for that ET.

It would bog or spin out of the hole, 1st and 2nd wen't too fast to even see full boost, it wasn't until 3rd and 4th where it'd start reallly pullin.

I just watch your bike vid. Did you ever find out what bike it was? Reason I ask is I've raced 3 gsxr's 600/750/1k. Just to get a comparison between the cars.

How was it not seeing full boost in 1st and 2nd? Blown turbos? It should pull full boost in every gear... There is a Stock turbo Supra that runs 10.7's where I live, so I don't know anything about this dumbass all Supra's run 12's myth. And the fact that there are about 100 in single digits.

hey, i gotta give you a compliment for draggin it down the track and seeing what it's got. Usually a kill story involving a supra is always a *** (roll) race.

sounds like a high 11 sec car that traps a little over 120, I guess I just don't see why you need to hide it. Im willing to bet my cam only SS could ET with your supra on 17" drag radials, and im full weight with a stereo and stock rear end. Where do you live?

Edit: just read you ran 12.1, lol

I was gonna guess 12.1 or 12.2 too I'd rather have a car that can run 12.1 @ 122 than a car that can run 11.8 @ 113

old times from the original owner was 130+ trap speeds. I expect 135+ now with 100+ more hp.
