'94 SC300 "SYNOPTIC" Build
Engine/Chassis Modifications:
Turbocharger with aluminum air-to-air intercooler, in-cab boost controller/gauge, in-cab fuel'air ratio gauge. [Currently producing 328 rwhp @ 13 psi boost. Fifteen year old analog fuel/air mapper doesn't have sufficient dynamic range to reach correct oxygen ratio at 5K ft elevation where I currently live. Engine runs excessively rich above 4K rpm at full throttle. Currently studying options to replace old mapper with modern digital technology. Local performance shop that just upgraded the wastegate system opines that achieving the correct fuel mixture would add another 30 hp without additional boost.]
Aftermarket SST mufflers with custom SST hanger brackets.
Tokiko struts with Eibach springs (minus one inch lower than stock).
Urethane steering box and suspension bushings all around.
Bright zinc plated, drilled and slotted brake rotors.
Brushed aluminum caliper covers., ceramic brake pads.
20 x 8.5 Milani "Blade" chrome 3-spoke wheels.
Falken 245/30ZR20 tires.
Body Modifications:
All exterior badges removed (California style).
Three stage white sparkle pearl paint.
Aftermarket front headlamps with HID conversion.
Aftermarket rear taillamps.
NM vanity license plate "LEXUS".
Custom engraved SST license plate frame.
Interior modifications:
Modified front seat frames to add side bolstering.
Full leather reupholstered front seats, stock color.
Custom drivers side armrest and hip bolsters in stock color leather.
Modified center console armrest in stock color leather.
Momo shift **** (5-speed manual)..

Patience
The engine compartment looks just like dozens of other SC300's with turbochargers of which photos are posted on this site. In fact, an under hood picture of this vehicle appears in the turbo thread. Because the boost controller/gauge and the fuel/air gauge are currently just dangling from wires I'll wait until I've created a custom mount to post interior pictures.
