New Supra owner

jbl1500 · 01-19-2010, 12:12 AM

Hi I'm new to this forum and also the soon to be owner of a Mk.III Supra. I'm not sure as to which performance parts I should buy for my Supra. I'm not looking for anything too crazy just enough for a light horsepower gain. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Air filter, exhaust, spark plugs/wires and for a little more money but doesn't give any HP boost... a suspension always helps you go faster, and do so without losing control.

Any specific brands you suggest and how much do you think all of it would cost? Thanks man.

I prefer K&N filters, those are fairly easy to find at most performance shops or by searching for them online, same with spark plugs... Though I hear pulstar pule plugs really give a difference. But NGK plugs and wires are also good. You can find air filters at JDM Ultimate for about 50-100 bucks. I got 2 from them, fast delivery and didn't have any problems. All I can really say is search around, prices are different all over the place and most of those parts are easy enough to find and put in.
An exhaust? Ask some dude at an exhaust shop to make you one, its usually the cheapest but not the prettiest looking exhaust, or you can find some online for 500+ for a good one.

If I wanted to Turbo my Supra out which Turbo would you recommend?

I don't really ever suggest aftermarket parts to anyone unless they have the money to do it right. But if you want to turbo a non turbo supra, you definitely want to go the way of the CT-26 and if you're looking for that aftermarket power get a 57trim from suprastore, VERY GOOD turbo I have one and swear by it at 12lbs of boost daily driving.
