    It does mean shit. If you turbo a bigger displacement engine it will always make more power then a smaller one. Thats why the supras can't compete at the Orlando Street Nationals. They need nitrous on top of boost to compete with the other cars with only 1 power adder.

    I'm going cliche here but "bigger is not always better". Top Secret has a top speed Supra, that is not JZ powered but SW powered...yeah it has MR2 turbo motor in it. It prolly has a shitty 1/4 mile time but that little four banger is toping out at about 200+ mph. To say that is impressive is an understatment.

    This thread seems more a domestic vs import to me but I'll give my opinion.........If I want a challange Supra.....If I want a Easy speed/power Mustang. As for the domestic VS imports it's been done plenty (Detroit vs The Imports) They held it several years and it's on dvd I do belive. The races they hold have surprizing outcomes.

    no offense but that 10.5 class does not even compare to the orlando world street nationals. The 10.5 tire cars in that class run high 6s at over 200 mph with just one power adder. A supra could never compete unless they changed the rules to allow 2 power adders.

    How come we don't see any supras running the outlaw 10.5 circuit? These are huge money races with 20,000 payouts going to the winners. Its basically anything goes on a 10.5W tire...with a few limits on weights of cars depending on the power adder.

    Hahahah you FAILED to mention that the Supra was a 6-Speed!!!! Not even auto!!

    Marco is auto... and faster than Woon in the 1/4, too bad his cable had to break!!!! The videos are on SF as well.
