but i guess the scooby is more expensive in terms of insurance due to it being mroe of a thief magnet

remtonone, the Supra has 3.0 engine, 2 turbos and non of the excess weight of a 4wd system, so it ain't a fair race. Either go on a circuit, or get yourself a Skyline R34 V-spec!

Engine:
STi intercooler
STi pink top injectors
Uprated Fuel pump
3 port boost solonoid
VF28 Turbo
Green panal filter
Prodrive sports cat downpipe
Decat upipe
Decat midsection
GGR backbox
Samco hoses
ECutek remap by Powerstation

Also have AP 6-pot brakes fitted and getting Coilovers fitted next Saturday by Powerstation, so should make a very fast car.

Need to get the map tweaked also, as last time I was there Rich did get 328bhp, but my boost pipe kept blowing, So now ive uprated to Samco hoses, I can get the boost turned up a bit more.

Intercooler and turbo was both bought of here in the for sale section, Turbo cost me about £250 and the Intercooler cost me £275. Most my engine mods where bought second hand.
