hi all came across your wee forum thru google lol. i have an 89 widebody supra with the 7mgte in front of an auto...havn;t had it long but i love it (apart from the frequent visits to the gas station)

i'm going to take down the quater mile this sunday for a bit of a laugh, but i was wondering whats the max boost you can run safly on a stock motor? i'm thinking bout taking stealing the boost tap and guage from my r30 skyline for the day lol

safely i think it is 15-17lbs on the stock head gasket. the engine itself can handle 500hp daily stock if i remember right. but you'll only be able to goto 12lbs of boost because at 12 you'll hit fuel cut the turbo itself can handle 15lbs to the houseing. post some pictures of the widebody im thinking of getting a widebody kit for mine.
