Hi I just bought a 1987 Supra Turbo. I am not experienced in the car field looking to see what to upgrade next to get more hp and/or run more boost or just to build a better car.My current mods are on my profile. Im in grade 11 dont have a huge source of income haha but a really wealthy mother that helps. Thanks much appreciated.

i would suggest making sure it is flawless mechanically, no leaks, etc. make sure your maintenance is done all the time. then work on power mods. in the end, what are you looking for out of the car?

Well as it is now it has 382 hp and 394tq ran on dyno 2 weeks ago and I just sent it in to a high proformance shop to replace a few hoses and it was pouring white smoke but he said he fixed it from all that (assuming it was the hg) and im looking to be able to run 20 psi boost roughly and hopefully about 450-500 hp

Looks like you've already got most the easy go fast parts. I'd keep an eye on the mechanics of it, keep a good solid tune, work on suspension and interior/ICE. Did I mention maintenance, lol?

Ya it will be maintained and tuned regularly. why work on interior and what kind of suspension to you suggest?
