You think the supra will beat this supercharged & turbo STI??

But hell yeah the supra engine bay looks hot, don't know about the exterior though.

Just thinking of the cash spent on those engines makes me shudder...

i know the supra would win...
you can get 600kw out of a supra BEFORE doing the internals wiht one big turbo... i dred teh figgeres that tri turbo puts out...

sides

the subi would have to be able to change gears

crappy gear boxes of glass!

i remember its figgers where about 450 or so?

I bet the different, getting lots of power is one thing, getting useable power on the road with traction is another.

With AWD for traction, supercharge for low end & twin turbo for mid to top end, there are no lag & the useable torque it got are from low rpm. Rexie do have a weak drive tran, but if you spend that much on the engine, you think the guy going to run stock tranny?

It does produce 330kw at all 4 wheels, so thatâ€™s a lot for a AWD system, consider stockie is around 110-120kw at all 4. I'm sure it would produce at least 30-40% more if he have it RWD bias.

3 turbos looks good and all but is it gonna produce any more kw's then a big single or twin setup? I can see how 3 turbos in a triple rotor would be beneficial. There's a few 1000+hp versions floating around. As for rexies the rigolis did have the worlds fastest rex. Pretty sure it was in the very low 10's. May have even been 9's. C&V performance have got something similar with a power glide in it. Not bad for street registered cars.

looks quite show I think a charade might have some decent competition now.

~bangs head on table.

But its still only 2.0L! Increased load from the Supercharger and having turbos which would not help its cause either! I imagine you would have to give it a bit before it starts going!!! Really to eliminate lag completely bigger CC engines is a major help!

Also the Supra motor should not even be compared to the WRX motor! The Supra motor is way superior!

Also that WRX motor just does not look right??? The supercharger looks like a photoshop? I dunno but all the piping looks wrong! or lack of with the supercharger.

BMW built a diesel 5 series that could (almost) keep up with the petrol V8 it made, it was twin turbo, a small 1 to compensate for lag and a large 1 to get you moving.... and it was so quick they had to limit it to 250kmph... id strap a small turbo and 2 larger 1's on that supra and i have to say its most likely quite a bit lighter than the sti... gotta give my vote to the supra... but ive always had a soft spot for them

The supra is a heavier car isnt it???

The STIs run very high boost because they are such small motors! Eg the XR6T only runs about 6pounds! Thats nothing!

have you boys got the figures for the cars?

being a STI perhaps it would be lighter, but im sure you could strip the interior of the supra....

i guess we'll never know!

1.5tonne for the Supra so very similar. The Supra is at least 206KW around 450-500NW of torque. The Supra would have better power delivery as the WRX is is too peaky.

The Supra does not lose at speed!

The XR6T trend is become very common at the moment! People sending $3000.00 on their turbos and they are getting 300RWKW and 800-900NM of torque! Its too easy to extract power out of them as stock they run very mild boost!

Indeed. Especially now that a lot of them are coming out of warranty periods. Was a big no-no to play with the turbo under warranty.

a lot of people are still doing the flash and taking the risk.

Yes bigger CC would definitely help, but if you a good tuner & with the right setup you can eliminate lots of lag, especially this kit use twin turbo setup, which mean it can start spooning from very low rpm (from memory it was setup for mid range & top end) imaging that & with a supercharge which is basically instant â€œpullingâ€
