Anyone know anybody that makes a turbocharger for the GS400. Looking at www.suprastore.com there is a Supra turbo for sale that has 1050 hp!

Default I'm looking too

I have tried to call different tuner companies to see if they have a turbo which they may be R&Ding for the GS4. So far no luck and no takers. I have yet to contact Bruce Nomura to see if he would do one. It seems that he has put on a turbo on an NSX and has tuned many different sports vehicles. He is the one that did the work on Martin Kraft's GS. If you have any information, I would greatly appreciate it. Dave, keep me informed and I'll do the same. I do have friends here that are willing to work at putting a turbo in, I just need to find a company that will fabricate the exhaust manifold, fuel management will be another story.

I've mentioned the TopSecret turbo project for the LS430 in Japan before. It's still in the works. If I find anything new I'll keep you guys informed.
