MSD stuff is pretty good, dunno how well it would work on a Supra though. MSD's DO burn up though, my bro worked at an auto parts store and got them in on warranty all the time...

The Ignition system on the 7M-GTE is really well made, until recently it wasn't common to have the type of system it has. The weak link if the sparkplugs and the plug gap. Get GOOD spark plugs from NGK, and gap them right and it will immediately run better. The plug wires might also be old.

You will eventually need a fuel computer and a boost controller to push that much HP, but you'll find that the Supra is pretty well built to begin with and is able to handle increases in boost, as long as the headgasket issue is taken care of.

Also, the metal headgaskets are sold in proper sizes, so you won't get much of a compression change...
