so a big power, say 500+ could be used as a daily driver without too much hastle in daily traffic.

All you would have to factor in would be the extra maintanence costs or running a higher state of tuned engine, plus the old Optimax bills ;)

Daily driving isn't a problem. All the time the car is off boost, it drives like stock.

High boost and wet weather can be a little entertaining though!

 

I had been driving Terry's car for a few days, commuting to and from work. IMHO, his car drives far better than any stock Supra I've ever driven. Very tractable, predictable and near perfect linea power delivery.
