Welcome.

What are your big plans that you have, as depending on what they are it may mean there are different suggestions to normal as to what your first steps should be.

OK, well increasing in stages is not the most economical method if you have a high power end goal.

But if you want to keep the outlay low then start with removing the cats, changing to a freer flowing exhaust and increasing the boost pressure.

That is of course after giving the car a good service.

Should be a fun project for the summer months and give you a smile from ear to ear

Hey Monz, good to see you on here. At least there will be a supe outside D's again!

Fensport is fairly close to Newmarket, although they did tell me that it was impossible to turbo an NA!

I'll have to pop over Newmarket once my little baby is back on the road.

Which is false, so that doesn't say a lot for them does it.

Hi, welcome to the club. Just a quick question, what car did you have before this and have you had experience with the amount of power a standard Supra throws out?

I had mine for over 3 years and the power delivery of my UK auto never failed to put a smile on my face.
