    Just looking for a specific picture of a turbo-A supra.

    I've been looking everywhere, and I can't find it. It's just a pic of a bone stock turbo-A sitting on a dock in japan (i believe there were multiple shots) Does anyone have this picture and/or any other awesome photo's?

    Is there any REAL advantage to a dual split downpipe?

    you're still not factoring in flow capacity the non-recirculating ddp has flow capacity equivalent to a 4" exhaust ... where as a 3" dp has the well..... you're not an idiot, right?

    r154 top gear speeds?

    could have to do w/ the rear end (nevermind, i see you're talking about the same car) just for reference... i had a 3.73 rear end and my gears went like so... (r-154) i also got 30+mpg (80mph @ 3,000rpm) 45 60 90 120 165 all speeds are at or very close to 6,500 rpm
