    It is not a question of How much power does she want to make, it is a question of how much power can the auto hold. Stock supras can easily hit 600 with out building the block so the sky is the limit.

    figure out what u are trying to put down. then go about selecting an intercooler. if u aer only going for conservative power just buy a 3 row. if u r looking to make big power get the four row. and do not sell yourself short on parts. do it right the first time.

    and i can get you an intercooler at wholesale price. usually any brand you want. just let me know.

    tank i saw you out saturday night. car was looking real good man.

    The greddy is a waste of money nowdays. I'm willing to bet the cores are all made in china. You can get the ebay 24x12x3 for $249 and is polished as well. I run that on my mustang and it works great...a few people have made over 600 rwhp on it and outlet temps were well within accepted limits. They also have the 4 inch for 50 bucks more.

    Unless you just want greddy bling i'd get the ebay one. I have the Xo2 version bar and plate version. Just buy that one and have someone make you some IC pipes.

    NO it is a question of how much power she wants to make. Nobody said a damn thing about a tranny, how do you know shes not going to upgrade that.

    Stock Supras can hit far more than 600hp on the stock block.

    So again the question is how much power do you want to make, no matter how much it is, there is only one shop that I personally would trust to touch my Supra but I'm sure everyone already knows who that is.

    Dude calm down. I have known a couple of people with BUILT auto trannys and they still cannot hold the power. 600 is a safe easy number with no problems, can it make more, of course it can. But from what I have seen 600 is good power with no problems from the tranny.
