The 5spd can hold about 400rwhp. A T61 is reliable. You should always get a complete kit (eg. fuel kit or turbo kit). Do not try to piecemeal it together with turbo then header then hoses/lines/pipes/couplings, or injectors separate from fuel pump separate from fuel rail, and then try to piecemeal it all together and make it work. It probably won't work properly, and you'll end up with weeks or months of headaches.
Hy, thank you very much for answering.
I think you are kind of right, but the next affordable supra is the auto tt supra...i've driven auto cars before but nevers sport cars...isn't the supra kinda meh with the auto tranny ?And plus how many hp could it withstand?
The manual tt si expensive and after that i have to make it like apu for ~ 500 hp, right ? that means at least 3000$ ? with the fcd,ecc,downpipe,exhaust,cams etc ?
EDIT : Or will I be better buying the auto supra + t61 kit ?

Another set of questions and I won't be bothering you anymore.
If I build the na supra, let's say to around 500hp / ~ 430rwhp...because I still think is less expensive then the twin turbo(I know it's not the better choice) and is better for me because I can add the turbo after like 1 month of buying the Supra(so I don't need all the cash in an instance), how much time will the tranny resist if I don't drive really hard ? And I saw some rebuild kits on ebay like THIS, are these good ? Because if it can hold this amount of power I don't mind paying for rebuild once every ~15k because I won't be driving too often.
I know the brakes are better on the twinturbo, but are these necessary or just recommended ? What about the diff and ignition system ?
Thank you again for taking your time !!!!!!!
L.E: What are the exact differences between a TT and a NA beside : brakes, turbo, tranny...do na's have ABS or Airbags ?
