New I think the Supras were in the mid 40s. They costed (is that a word?) about the same as a Vette. And they can be very mean. They come with all forged internals in a very strong block.
With a few fairly simple modications: boost/fuel controller, down pipes, and a clutch, they can easily make over 400 hp. It gets worse when the twin turbo is swapped out for one larger one. They went away because they didn't sell very well. Most people who can slap 40 some Gs down for a sports car don't like the shopping cart handle/fart pipe look, so the Vette was a better choice. The Lexus GS300 uses the NA version of that engine (220 hp) and there are rumors that Toyota might bring back the TT in a Lexus Supra. |
