Everything was replaced
Everything was swaped, except steering rack and suspension. All the drivetrain - tranny, diff, etc,etc was swapped. Sold it because I needed the money.

The car made...
approx 550 flywheel HP on stock fuel setup and engine internals. The tires are 255/40/17 and 275/40/17 Yokohama A-032Rs on 17x8.5 and 17x10 OZ competition rims with supra TT fitment/offset. RPS manifold, t-66 ball bearing, etc..... My traction limited best down the strip was 12.6 @ 120.xx MPH @ 18PSI (low boost setting) and race gas.

I never dynoed the car but
...just using a simple formula for calculating flywheel HP based on ET and weight, 120 MPH = 530 HP. I could turn up the boost another 2psi based on EGTs but I was already beyond the traction limit at 18psi.
Some guy by the name Don flew in from Dalas and picked the car up.
