I wish I had a list of all of my mods...I'm sure there are several hundred. Here's a very old(2001) mods list:

...but there have literally been hundreds of changes since then.

GReddy turbos kits are among the cheapest available, because their turbos are generally considered outdated/obsolete and extremely laggy for their size. You can (now) get a smaller exhaust housing for the t78 which helps to correct some of its lagginess but it is still a very old turbo especially when compared with some of the new garrett GT35, GT42, and GT47 options...

If you want to see a "pricey" turbo kit, take a look at this one:

...scroll down to the last one on that page.

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
