Ive just never been sure how a BPU would go in the real world outside of a track when they really start to get going after 60 (mind you here in Australia we only get J-spec which has less power) So it would take a couple mods to surpass a stock US spec. So far ive been dissapointed im really wanting someone with stock twins in BPU form exhaust, FMIC, downpipes, intake to give me a test. Once you go APU your spending a fair bit of cash.
Deffinately would be interested to see how you go from a dig and roll from 30mph against your mates. BTW what would u be dealing with now What mods do they have?
the look on the supras is timeless. to me, the look will never look old. people who don't know cars/supras but have seen them swear they look brand new.
i'll definitely get some videos in though i will get killed in likely all of assuming they can't launch well from a dig. the whole turbo lag thing is overplayed. if you get the right turbo setup or a ball bearing turbo, you can effectively eliminate a majority of lag. if you brake boost, there will be no lag and you will always be in boost after that in a race (assuming you can drive and your car is tuned properly).
the one i uploaded pictures of i believe has a Precision Turbo PT76. He will be running E85 and is expecting upwards of 730whp after all is said and done.
the one in the video, again, was full BPU plus race gas brake boosting me on the highway
the one i've raced recently is actullay the red one. thats the only picture i have of it. the dealership he bought it from still has one online right here (
95 Red TOYOTA SUPRA Turbo for sale in Arizona | Avondale Used Cars Classifieds at LemonFree.com) - i know it says twin turbo, but it isn't. they're dumb. it has an SP59 turbo on it, though stock intercooler for right now. it puts down somewhere in the 450whp+ range we think (he just got it, hasn't dyno'd it though will be within a week or two).
