Import troll.....with a mission. - Page 3

Oh and unfortunately, the exhaust on my car HAS to be enormous to be effective...so its actually functional, and not just big for the sake of ricey-ness...if that's even a word.

So besides being great at launching veggies out of, it also allows the turbos to boost up faster and stronger, with better backpressure!

Anyone that has turbo system knowledge knows what I'm talkin about.

Whoooosh!

I was looking at a '94 turbo stock supra in 1997 at 18,600. Had 30k miles and I knew the owner. Car was immaculate. I couldn't afford it being 14 at the time. =/

Here's a pic I made for these boards. :tweetz:

I'd say that is a matter of opinion. I don't find the Supra the least bit appealing from any angle.

I'm basically BPU as it stands.

Here's a list of my current mods so far:

Stock twins @15psi
Blitz cold air intake system
GReddy boost cut controller
Turbo XS manual boost controller
HKS 3" catless racing downpipe
HKS Super Dragger Exhaust system

It's not much just yet, but enough to get me into the low 12's for now.

All I need now is a FMIC, cuz the heat here in TX is killing my power.

If you hit low 12's with that, you're either an automatic with very sticky tires, or a God that defies the law of gravity.

I was APU+ and was a mid-12's 6-speed on pretty BFG KDWS (pretty shitty tires, but still).

Tires will gain you about 1.5 seconds if you're spinning on street tires. Reaction time is also a big plus.

I was on Nitto 555's and yes, I am auto.

Also keep in mind, I ran @18psi on race gas.

EDIT: if you were truly APU+, you should have been in the 11's easy.

MerF · 08-22-2007, 08:06 PM

I probably could have with an automatic with Nittos...but like I said, I had awful street tires and a 6-speed.
