CT26, the bigger of the two variants. No known compressor maps, but it's fairly large-ish turbo, would work well on a D16 or LS I think.

EDIT: 7MGTE's are from 3rd Gen (MKIII) Supras, not first

Pft, only 300? Car is pigslut heavy highway brawler, unless you throw the engine into a 2900 lb MKII shell, but I would never do anything like that....

Lunsford has his gutted + sawzalled to less than that. There's video of him stomping the ---- out of a ~500 whp Procharged C5 on jblmk3.com, from a roll, from a standstill, unstoppable Corvette ownage. And people think MkIII Supras are jokes...

Less than 2900, confirmed? That car must be chopped to ----, most MKIII's weigh in at around 3600 pounds depending on the options, people have had them on the scales weighing 3900 pounds wet. 1986.5 NA hardtops are the lightest from the factory but are still pretty hefty. The cars are lowbuck destroyers, I've always loved them.

I think the car has run an 11.8 with typical IRS wheelhop. 438 whp 490 wtq, and weighs enough less than aforementioned 3500 lb Vette to destroy it by a significant margin.

Like most platforms, it's the man and not the machine.... although a willing machine is always a bonus.b

I've watched enough videos of enough high HP hondas hitting enough shitty times to realize that much.

11.8's mean about 120ish mph traps? So going on that the car only weighs about 3200 pounds if you reverse engineer a few HP calculators, not that they're accurate, but it's hard to find 600-700 pounds of stuff to cut out of that chassis. The cars are tanks, pure and simple, I used to troll the MKIII supraforum, pictures of various poles with more damage than cars were common.
