I know there are a 'lot' of SC3's that are turboed (compared to GS3's).

What are the differences in doing so?

Are there issues that need to be looked at upfront that the tuners will not 'readily' tell you?

What is the most reliable rwhp # that can be expected from a turbo bolt on installation?

Any FAQ's floating around on the subject, links, etc?

thanks!

I am not sure about the GS400, but the SC300 has 2JZ-GE motor that is known for amazing capabilities with a turbo. It's the same motor as in Toyota Supra which most come with twin turbo. I plan to turbo my SC300 soon. Does anyone know what's the best/cheapest way to do this safely?
