HKS Speed Delimiter
TRD speedo
Cold Air intake
Hard pipes
upgraded temp sensor
wider rims and tires
bigger brakes

Any help appreciated! Thanks
No speedo necessary for BPU. No cold air intake necessary for BPU. No hard pipes necessary for bpu. Bigger brakes not necessary for bpu.

You will need:
- A way to limit fuel cut (in the us-spec, this is done with a GReddy BCC)
- A downpipe to eliminate the oem catalytic converter
- a way to raise the boost (the clamp-mod should work just fine).

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.
