To the other post: I'm sure he meant kilograms, which would be about 3,500lbs.

And as Isphius said, the internals are good. In NA form they last and when you let the engine breath with intake and exhaust it gets the most of the 7Ms good bits. And i love that valve on the intake manifold. The one that opens around 3800 RPM to shorten the length of intake which allows the engine to make the most of its top end aswell as having decent torque and bottom end. A great idea, this is the first engine i have seen to use this system and for the gains you get i cant believe every engine doest have one.
Man, when i first bought a Supra i was almost put off the 7M all together from what i read, but after building one, and driving it, i am sold. There great engines.

Well, I am the original owner of an '89 Supra non-turbo and have had
significant increases in horsepower by adding a few bolt on parts which I
think you might be happy with as well if you're willing to spend the money.
1. HKS Exhaust 2. HKS SuperMegaflow filterchargdr
3. PaceSetter ceramic coated headers 4. Unorthodox racing cam sprockets
5. Apexi free flowing cat

All this hardware boosted my horsepower significantly and I'm happy to say
that I have no desire for a turbo as I'm still able to smoke a lot of cars off
the line.

Any car can be made quick. How fast do you want to go = How much money do you have? (typically)

Stay with your stock cams, they are good to run high numbers. Other than that, run the gamut of standard bolt-ons.

Thanks C-town. Do you know what year Honda started using it? Honda have done a lot of good things for Japanese cars, there a great company.

im so suprised no one said this...after intake then exaust throw a 75 shot of nitrous on it, sence the bottem end is the same as the turbo version it should be fine..i have raced a couple nice n/a supras and they seem to be pretty quick, you would be pretty much unstoppable...then after your done having fun..turn that bottle off and just be a sleeper

Nitrous is like, fake power... temporary power.. =P
