i'm getting my first supra tonight. have never had one of these cars. allways been into the old muscle cars. so i'm hoping i can get some good tips on what i can do to modify this car. it's a 86 5speed. the guy i'm getting it from says it's at 8 lbs of boost right now. any thoughts on upgrades. i can sink a couple thousand for the motor. i'm not worried about 600hp but if i can get 350hp to 400hp i'd be a happy camper. the guy i'm getting this from tell me i can go 450hp on stock internals... is that true? any advice is greatly appreciated. thank you
