3 turbos and only 600hp? All that work and it can be achieved with a single SP turbo kit.

Maybe for faster spool up? I dunno, engine bay got a lil too busy for my taste

I've seen much better Supra's.

Lose the Triple Turbo, Change the body color, and Change the wheels completely. Then we'll talk about how nice it is.

this guy has been trying to sell that car as long as i can remember. That engine is a mess. First thing id do is get rid of all that clutter and put in one nice LARGE snail.

the only purpose of this triple turbo is novelty... its utterly worthless in terms of utility.
