okay.. what do you do with your car.. run down coyotes?? lol. : ) Very nice turbo. I thought you would want twins for street.. single is more for track is it not? (forgive me the noob question.. I am learning about this part of the car this month.. wastegates, BOV, etc.. etc.. my 87 I just bought has the PSI turned to 12 and I just discovered what a Supra really was...)

Coyote's are present where I live, but I see more squirrels that wait at the side of the street, then finally run across in front of my car right before I pass them.

I wanted to do a turbo upgrade and it's more cost effective to go with a single. I chose this particular turbo to minimize the turbo lag and get decent power at the same time.

Nice, what's the size of the exhaust wheel rodel? Any links to more info on that turbo?
I don't know the inducer/exducer size of the turbine wheel, but I know the turbine housing has an A/R of 0.68. Here's more info on the turbo:

Sorry...just haven't taken the time to do that. I will make time to take pics of the rear interior this weekend





Cell Phone pic: Getting gas in Barstow, around 6:30 am of the morning of Show and Shine, on the way to SILV 2010. The gas attendant asked me if my car is a Supra "GT-S" (He said that he had a Celica GT-S)

I apologize that it took so long. Thank you for being patient. I'm gonna be installing rear seats, so I may be removing the cage.

Here's literally the exact same cage, but painted red, in without rear panels.

Damn, I love your car man.
Just needs a tad bit lower imo lol
I kinda prefer it with the MS1's though, a little contrast never hurt haha.

Also, what are your thoughts about that supra behind you? I've always thought about one with ITB's but hes putting so little power down...

Thanks for your good feedback. I do want it lower. I'm considering the installation of either 18" wheels or removing the aero parts, then installing 17" wheels. I still have the MS1 wheels, which are actually my favorite of all the wheels that I've installed on my car.

My thoughts on the red ITB's Supra? It's definitely cool looking and way underpowered.

I badly want your headlight setup.

First my wheels. Now my head lights? Why don't you consider photoshopping my headlights onto your car? Kidding, Kidding.:naughty:
