  1. Mmmm... I just checked on google maps. You're located quite to the North of my route
  2. I will be at Lee's on 14th of April. On 15th in the morning, we drive to Abbey Motorsports hub dyno (Oxted - south London). After the dyno, I will head to Folkestone to take the Eurotunnel back to the continent. Are you in Kent near Maidstone??
  3. You will never get to that speed with what I see under the bonnet - - - Updated - - - That's a deal
  4. Holy s**** mate. Your Supra looks the nuts : WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good idea to go for the hood vent .. I find it very special on the Supra. The more I see your colour, the more I want it
  5. Cheers mate. Oh yes it does. The first time I saw one was in a local Toyota Garage : it was a silver 6 speed targa roof. This was in 1993 and I was 18 years old. I told my mum that I would get one one day. She was when I came home with my Supra in 1998 :d
  6. Well .. to be honest Kaan, I never would have imagined driving a 900bhp Supra one day. The fact that I went from 330bhp to 430bhp, then to 500bhp, 630bhp, 700+bhp and currently 800+bhp is the best way I could have imagined upping the power. The fact that I had small power increases each time made me get used to the car progressively. Even after 16 years of ownership, my Supra still puts a massive smile on my face everytime I get behind the wheel. It has almost triple the power it had in the beginning ... thinking about that is simply crazy :d
  7. Cheers Alex. Yeah ... was one of the best days since a couple of months.
  8. I found some old and recent engine bay pics on my computer. Had a good smile when looking at them. Full BPU in 2007 2008 : My first single kit : PHR Stage 1 In 2010, the turbo was replaced by a BW 91-79 unit. It made 626 bhp on SRR at 1.5 bar of boost In 2011, a new intake plenum with adjustable cam gears took the power to 651 rhhp on TDi hub dyno / boost was 1.8 bar. In 2013, built 3.0 engine with the BL366 turbo. It pushed 747 rhhp on AME hub dyno at 1.5 bar of boost. Pictures of the new 6766 turbo and engine bay begining of 2014
  9. Don't let Steve blind you ... he just wants his car in at your's before DB :d
  10. Nice one mate What turbo is that??
  11. Wow. Quelle bête. Félicitations. Congratulations
  12. I saw the car at Lee's on Monday. Bodywork is amazing. I had never seen such in bodykit in flesh. WOW. Congrats.
  13. +1 I would start with 500bhp and then raise the power progressively. I went from stock to BPU, then single with 500bhp, one year later 600+bhp, one more year 700bhp and currently 800+bhp. This will let you enjoy everytime the little more punch
  14. All depends on the ECU and the mapper's skills. I'm sure Ryan would extract 1000+bhp from a proper built engine (with Syvecs) even on 95 octan.
  15. With a built 3.0 engine, you could take much more out of that turbo.
  16. No mate .. no time after those 7 hours of traveling. Luckily, it was dry on the road all the way up.
