I want to keep my 81 5ME powered Supra original, but do crave a little more power to keep up with todays speeds. I would stray from original enough to install a turbo or supercharger, but have never had any luck finding help with the subject. Not looking for a rocket, just a few more ponies. I have owned this car for 20 years and wanted to give it an anniversary present this year. Anyone know of anything that might help me? Thanks

Thanks for the input. Mine is a 5ME and not the later twin cam motor, so turbos are not as easy. Still like to find a company that might try the turbo swap on it.
