What kind of "track"? Autocross? Drift? Dragrace track? Roadrace? Rally?

You can take almost any car to drag racing events. What kind of performance do you expect from it when you get there? 12s? 10s? 8s?

Note: If you want to build a 1000rwhp Mkiv Supra that you can both dragrace and roadrace effectively, you're talking some REALLY big $ - probably close to 6 figures. If you want it to be show-quality too, then you'll be over 6 figures easy...

I already posted the answer to this question (click this link to get to my post, above) - about 32psi or so, depending on several items.

Sure. Just be d@mn sure your boost stays down, or it's kaboom bye-bye to the engine.

Thank you for your kind words! About 800rwhp now, and planned is about 1250rwhp or so.

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.
