Having a fast car and being quiet...that's my goal right now. I have the stock exhaust system hooked up and even the wastegate on the turbo is recirculated back into the downpipe. At the absolute best, I will only be able to make 500-600whp(wild guess) through the restrictive stock exhaust system. I also have an exhaust cutout which I can flick a switch and it will dump the exhaust right after the downpipe. That alone can free up to 200+ more HP.
The only reason I'm doing it is so when I am in stealth mode, I can fly down the street and all you will hear is a jet flying down the street

you could get rid of the sensor 2's and splice sensor 1's together to just one o2 sensor. however you have to worry about the heater circuit. most likely you will have a CEL. Don't even bother with the o2 skew until you have MAF and fuel table tuned correctly. I did a write up on clubna-t.com you should look there.

Alright heres a question.
I'm starting to piece my turbo kit together. Heres the way I'm going, feel free to give input.
Turbo, what size? (and where to buy?)
Intercooler, what size? (buying off ebay)
GS300 Turbo Manifold (ebay)
HKS SSQ Blow off Valve
Universal Intercooler piping kit (ebay or wherever cheap)
AEM FIC or Greddy emanage (which one?)
Supra TT Headgasket
Walbro Fuel pump (size?)
Injectors (600cc?)
ARP Headstuds
Tranny:
Valve body upgrade (SRT)
Sprag Uprgrade (??)
Cooler
What am I missing? and where are good places to buy these parts? (other than ebay) Thanks.

Turbo you can run t57- which is safer for your transmission. or a t61(t70) which you can use on the long run.
Medium is fine. large intercooler you have to modify your crash bar. or figure out how jeff put his. LoL
the ebay Manifolds are fine but Mark(mkiv) at ClubNa-t.com has it in his kit (XSPOWER)
IMO i prefer the AEM FIC
any headgasket should be fine. i think the thicker the better??
Stock fuel can handle up to 300hp. or a Walbro 255lph for 350+
Jeff in the beginning thread said that you calculate hp by how many cc. most people run the 550cc injector for the supra.
but you can get a complete kit from Mark from clubna-t.com

Thanks for the reply. I was going to try to piece together my kit. The problem with The one from Club Na-t is, it's not a complete kit. But I will probably go that way in the end. I just don't know what else I'll need with that kit

After all this is done to the NA, shouldn't a torque converter be added to the list to change the stall for better acceleration. I would also add an LSD.
