The Raven Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 I dont get it? turbos? there are only n.a supras of which mine is the fastest! Denial is a wonderful thing. As for the upgrade BPU is the best way to get more power for least cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 Welcome to the club Luke Click here for upgrades to the stock turbos -> BPU ps. Please loose the non standard font Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supra-love Posted March 15, 2008 Author Share Posted March 15, 2008 nice response.. What i meant was you never know the state your turbos are in once you purchase the car,just to be safe i would like to get new turbos its not really for the speed just the peace of mind any extra BHP is great. but is their any specific turbo i can buy without going for the whole kit thing?

Guigsy Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 no. Unless you swap them for original turbos (new or 2nd hand). Other than that you can get some hybrid ones with different internals but where you get them from i'm not sure anyone knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stock turbos use a unique flange to fit on the stock manifold, there are no aftermarket turbos available that will fit. Your only option would be to fit either new OEM turbos or rebuilt stock turbos with new internals, generally known as 'Hybrids'. I supply brand new OEM turbos for around £900 each delivered.

Sheefa Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 You're jumping the gun a bit Luke. You can find a lot of decent Supras, some low mileage still, with strong stock tubbies that are still pulling well. I'd suggest you enjoy the car you purchase in early 2009 first for a bit before thinking about upgrading the tubbies straight away. Always good to save though asap. My hybrids were fitted by Phoenix Performance (Envy hybrids) at a total cost including parts and labour of £2200 iirc. That included an AFR, Boost controller and a few other bits too. Only way of renewing your turbos without any major modification is as Nic and others have said to buy new stock tubbies or switch to Hybrids. Keep us posted Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Hi Luke & Welcome! I'd take a step back and find out more about the car. A lot can happen in a year..... Also, if you were female you'd have had 50 replies by now... H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
