Whats the max boost pressure can I SAFELY run in a 100 octane EU rated fuel?And what power would result of that setup?
So sorry but never did quite understand meth and water. I understand its good to pump up octane and prevent knock-->more boost-->more power. But is it easy to find? Is it practical for everyday use or only when power is needed?how is it just trow into the fuel tank?
Widebody kit is out of question for now then
If I got it right you told that if I go straight from stock to single T I may save some money in midle mods?
Last, to achieve this kind of power is there any turbo size/model or brand you would recommend?
Sorry for this never ending questions.
Thanks m8
What's the motor octane of 100 octane EU rated fuel?

Meth is pretty easy to find - most hardware stores will have something called "denatured alcohol" ... it's a suitable substitute if you can't find methanol. Also, most companies that distribute race fuel will also distribute methanol. Alcohol+water (about a 75-25 or 90-10 mix) is very effective for everyday use AND when power is needed, for 600rwhp or 700rwhp or so. You don't just throw it in the tank (like you can with race fuel) - for alcohol injection, you need a whole separate system (pump+fogger+controls).

You can make 500rwhp (through a 6spd) with the oem twins and a shot of nitrous. For 600rwhp (through a 6spd), you'll need approximately a T61 (61mm inducer) sized turbo.

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.
