yeah dont know how it is but seeing two turbos and a supercharger hooked upto a 2.0L engine overkill.

I know what you mean but the reduced lag from the supercharger but then you got to take into consideration this tiny 2.0L is losing power from driving the supercharger, and it takes a bit of power to do that. Then you have two stupid turbos again being sort of a restricting the flow of power.

Up high it will be brilliant but down low i dunno, even with the supercharger which i reckon is a photoshop haahahaah.

Do you have any figures on the WRX? I'll try and find them for the Supra.
Weight, 0-100, 1/4 mile etc.

You should really be comparing a STI to Supra,

Both are around 1.5 tonnes and low 13's quarter mile.

My man in the supra says this

"Two very different cars the supra is a high speed touring car, scobbie 4 wheel drive rally car.
So round the mountain passes the scobbie should win if the pussie can drive .
out on the open road , not a chance it will rev too high flat out 160 out of any quick scoobie the vanishing point 208 so I would say no contest but if he wants to have a go tell him to email me, grand on the table if he can put his money where his mouth is !!!!."

He's taking the supra to the US next year too, so it might be on! 8O :twisted:

BTW Vanishing Point = the supra. And he's talking MPH here too.
