Hi,
I'm in the market for a 6spd MKIV TT Supra for my daily driver.
I've been told to buy a non-VVTI model as these are easier to modify? Is this correct? From what year did these cars come with the VVTI engine?
As soon as I find & get the car I want, my immediate plans are to scrap the OEM TT configuration and go with a big single setup with 3"-4" down pipe. Haven't decided which single to go with yet, but probably be a PTE67, P-Trim, 0.84 A/R Turbine Housing. Perhaps even a GTQ Trim.
My aim is a quick spooling street turbo that will flow north of 750-800 fwhp.
If I can't obtain that with the PTE67, then perhaps I'll consider a slightly larger unit, like the PTE70 P-Trim.
I don't want the turbo to be a pig on the street and want to obtain FULL boost by ~4K RPM's and not run out of breathe in the upper RPM band.
I'll also be performing extensive head-work (porting, CAMs etc) with proper ARP fasteners, so I can raise the rev limit to around 8Krpms.
A few questions immediately come to mind:
1. Which single header system is the most reputable on the market?
2. Which manufacturer makes the best down-pipe exhaust system?
3. When aiming for such big HP, would one be required to upgrade the OEM EMS, or would piggy-back controllers suffice?
4. What type of clutch is best suited for street driving, that will hold that much HP?
Anyway, any advice you guys can provide me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance
