    Here I am 18 mos after getting my silver ‘22 Supra and sadly it’s still OEM. It still is very fulfilling to drive though.

      Enjoy your car. There are people who can't even afford a MKV. Build it slow. It's costly.

      Agree with Chris! Enjoy it because even in its stock form, it's still an awesome car.

      @@VinceChristmastree Yo VC, question. I’ve been happily enjoying my 22 Supra with OTS Stg2 pump 93 on BM3 for about a year now. I’ve tried E30 blend but wasn’t impressed so I stick with 93. My speedshop offered to give me the E50 map which they forgot to initially install saying it would be relatively safe even without a sensor as ling as I get a precise 50/50. My question is this, is it worth it to get the Visconti kit and supporting mods to be able to run full E85? or any blend for that matter? Or would it just represent marginal returns? I am still on stock charge pipe and intake so clearly I would also get that done. I guess you can say I’m still chasing power gains without wanting to take the “plunge” like you… at least not yet

    @mkvpoopra Год назад

    you think it’d be possible to meet up with some other owners and see the difference in the top mount kits? klm vs full race vs p2uned etc. not sure if the difference is worth the effort but it’s an idea

    • @VinceChristmastree
      @VinceChristmastree  Год назад +2

      I could do that, but the main difference between them is just the positioning of the turbo, wastegates utilized (brand and size), diameter of the downpipe, and if there is a BOV/BPV on the chargepipe.

    does the pure850 keep the twin scroll aspect, Just a billet form factor?

    Dumb question. If I go top mount turbo, do I HAVE to go catless downpipe or can I run an Active Autowerks catted highflow pipe or something similar?

    • @VinceChristmastree
      @VinceChristmastree  Год назад +1

      No such thing as a dumb question. So majority of the kits are catless and all top mount kits have the downpipe included. KLM started offering an option for a catted downpipe, but you'll want to make sure it's a top mount specific downpipe because the stock location ones will not be compatible.

      Basically the same thing, but more capable for power. I would say still worth it if you're staying stock location turbo.

      I've seen two Supras in the forums break their turbos in the forums, and the only thing they had in common was a catted downpipe. They only had BM3 OTS, so pushing the car with catted downpipes doesn't sound good to me
