...or maybe it's another user that I'm thinking of, but I thought you already had a "big turbo" Supra?

Slithers car is a candy red and not sure if he even has the turbo set up done on his.

I'm not bent out of shape. I'm just making a request.

Yup, I always park in C4 so I can get a parallel spot. I usually get there early enough that I could park in the parking garage, but it's worth the extra walk to keep the dings/dents down.

You should be able to go far beyond that with good tuning and not an FMU

Re: So the Boost Gods paid me a visit!

The stock injectors/pump/etc are limited to around 7-8psi. The clutch won't last much past 300whp (which I should put down after the install) and the tranny craps out around 400whp. I'm gonna replace the clucth, leave the headgasket the same and run a safc to tune it with. It's a great starter kit.
