Well, hey everyone! I just found this forum the other day...and I have to say it is a very good forum. I currently own a 1986.5 N/A Toyota Supra 5-speed. It does not have the TCM or whatever its called, where you can change your suspension hardness on the fly. It is bone stock, has stock interior, stock paint, stock engine, purely bone stock.

The only mods that were made to it were out of necessity, except for the sound system of course

My dad and I put Bilstein Struts on it to replace the old ones and wow! It handles like a dream...best handling car I've ever driven. For the sound system it is all done by me, I put a Kenwood KDC-5028 CD/MP3 player in it...replaced the front door speakers with Kenwoods, and ripped out the back speakers and replaced them with Kenwood 6x9's in boxes. Shortly after that I purchased a Rockford Fosgate Power Punch S3 Subwoofer in a Bandbass box powered by a Profile 1000W Amp, incredible. Needless to say I have no back seats, haha.

Just thought I'd introduce myself, and hopefully ask a few questions. I'm perfectly happy with my car's top speed, 145 topped out

But I want it to get up to speed...faster, I'd love better throttle response, any idea's? I've heard that cold air intakes help out a lot...as well as an engine cleaning, like cleaning out the ports and stuff. Any help would be appreciated!

if your looking for throttle responce from the NA I would suggest a good free flowing intake, a header and full 2.5inch pipe, gutted or testpiped cat, and a good free flowing muffler. Beyond that, your getting into serious mods and/or parts.
