Stenno Regular Location: Sydney Registered: March 2003	Re: Buying a MKIII Supra Sun, 30 March 2003 02:03 SUPRA MAN wrote on Sun, 30 March 2003 01:18 ahh, ok, cool. you sound like you know a bit about them. 1. Do you want to sell your cams then ? 2. do you think the head should be tensioned down more to handle more boost, or are they already tighter than the standard 52pound ? 3. Do you know what boost they run standard ?? my boost guage only goes to 4psi 4. Have you heard anything about strengthened internals ? could the Turbo-A engine handle moore boost than the standard 7MGTE ? 5. should I boost to around 12psi, or go for 15psi/1bar ??? I know a little bit about them, nothing much more than most Supra owners know. They've been for-sale for a while, but they require major mods to the head, different valve springs and shim under buckets (echo unit's will work), it's not something you can just plonk in and drive off unfortunetly. http://www.turbosupras.com/images/general%20pictur es/trd%20cams%20dummy%20fit%201.jpg http://www.turbosupras.com/images/general%20pictur es/trd%20cams%20dummy%20fit%202.jpg No idea what boost they run from the factory, I would have thought it'd be around the 5.5-6psi mark, but if you're only reading that much on your gauge I'd be having the car put on a dyno with an A/F probe up it's backside and give it some more boost. Nope, same internals, same comp ratio, they do have a larger throttle body though - 65mm vs 60mm. Put it on a dyno and increase the boost to a level which is safe on the A/F side of things, it also depends on where fuel cut is on the Group A ECU.
