the CT26 from a MR2 is junk IMO.. CT20B is the 3rd gen 3sgte turbo and that still cant do more then 300whp.. on a 3sgte

Maybe that's partly why two of them together won't flow more than about 200rwhp above stock when the boost is raised...
Btw, upon further research, it turns out that SKILMATIC was misinformed about yet another item - the 2jz-gte's oem twins are CT12B turbos (not CT26s).

Well, I agree that 40psi on the oem twins is rediculous, but 20psi from them is a walk in the park. They may be relatively small, and perhaps not optimally efficient at high boost levels, but they'll push 20psi (and more) with a good degree of reliability.

Agreed.

That makes sense as well, but note that with 'only' 450rwhp a bpu++++ Mkiv Supra is still an awesome vehicle. When driven where it really shines (on a roadrace course), an Mkiv Supra at 450rwhp with a good set of tires is easily enough car for most intermediate-level drivers.
