click on the site and go down to dyno testing!!

wow, props for coming up with the dyno stuffs, even if it IS import tuner
(tho maybe they've gotten better, they were certainly considered fodder a couple years ago.. like SS level)

So yay, they made bigger power on a supra, in a mag that's been more than a couple times accused of false reporting and inplications of being "buyable" ... not that I'm saying that this is one of those instances of misrepresentation, but the mag, at least a couple years back, had a very bad rep. (hell if I was going to re-sub!)

Apples and oranges STILL tho. It's a supra, and in no way related to any S-chassis. The plumbing of a JZ vs. SR/RB etc is different, and thus is not a straight across the board comparison. The gains seen on the supra are not really indicative of any other applications besides.... you got it, another Supra.

I still say that 24whp is unrealistic on an SR, if you can prove me wrong GREAT!!! cuz if I'm wrong, that means my car is putting out more power than I thought, and that's ALWAYS good news All I know is that I've been thru 3 different intakes, 4 if u include the stock airbox, and there was VERY MINIMAL feel via the ole butt-dyno for any of them. If the difference was anywhere close to 24whp, I'd definitely feel it. Besides, like ZK said, get an intake for the filtration to prevent bad things happening to your engine... if performance is all that matters (ie. track only drag car), run w/o a filter, that's the most air u can shove into that turbo
