hahaha... especially with that color.. old man's tan.
I told you what my Old Man's Tan has made and am still trying to squeeze 150-200 with the nitrous even if it is already past the 1k rwhp mark.
Old Man's Tan .. my favorite car right now.... my new Daily Driver Sleeper !

Quoting this for when you start searching for more power. 500whp will be good enough for about a week. lol, Or until you get beat by a car you didn't expect to get beat by or you don't run the time at the track that you expected to. That's just the nature of the game.

TweakedIS3 said it right .. you will be satisfied until no one passes you . Once you can't catch up with someone , there goes the 500rwhp satisfaction. It's a virus without any cure once you start modding a car. It progressively gets worst as long as you have the means to spread it. Only way without contracting that virus is keeping your car stock .
My build is more racing oriented....i.e I plan on tracking the SC

for the streets and for the weight of these cows , around 650ish rwhp is the sweet spot . traction issues , daily driving reliability etc etc to me is what stops me from wanting to go much beyond this .im at 600 and have tons of fun . There are many faster but most of the time they are playing catch up as I get out the hole very fast

Maybe I'm wrong. I doubt it though.

Yeah it's not Miata or E30 light but it's a larger car with alot more comfort features...
The car weighs around 3500lbs which is not that heavy. You guys make it seem like it weights as much as a Bently CGT.

To this day I am still amazed why everybody calls Supras and SCs cows? How do you figure?

Let's wait and see , when you taste driving a 500rwhp car and still your *** whooped by some others whether on the streets , on the track or on the drag strip , I would love to hear you say "Do I really need that much more HP ? " . Saying "Good For Now " ... already tells me something . If you don't get your *** whooped by other cars in your area then maybe , you won't need more hp !

I'm sure you'll be grinning ear to ear at 20psi on that turbo, and will be well into the 500s. I was at 400 for 2 years, have been at 540 for a year now at that same boost level on a smaller BW. Car is an absolute blast on the street. All this after having had a 630hp dsm before this, it's still a blast. There will always be bigger fish, but I'm sure you'll love it. You'll probably be more focused on planting the power then figuring out how to make more, at least that's where I'm at...
