It started out as a na and i went with the boostlogic na-t kit, aemems stand alone computer. It has a 5 speed in it rite now but have a 6speed to swap in to it one of these days. The 5speed is holding well for now as it only make 400 to the wheels on a rich tune. The set up is good for 500 with a new tune but my poor 5speed will break.

that's cool, but don't forget to swap out the rear end,it'll get chewed up too, you can drop it right out of GS400,it'll cost you less than half of a price on 6 speed rear end

more pics of the progress

Wow does that thing look amazing!!! :drool:  That paint job is awesome and those huge rear tires will come in handy when trying to get all that power to the pavement (without being just a smoke show).

Any plans for a wing?  I still like the original Supra turbo spoiler.  I think it fits the car so perfectly that even with the wide body kit, it all works.  :2cents:

BTW, the car looks absolutely fantastic.  How much boost?

As the pictures rolled by I just kept thinking one four letter word that starts with F. That thing is amazing dude!!!!!!  Looks like you can dive into the paint and I bet that engine is a screamer. There is some serious coin tied up in that beast!   :worshippy
