It will fit if you use a BFH on the firewall or go single.

BFH= Big F'in Hamer and you have to do no such thing. I am running stock twins and only had to do some bending of the heater core lines.

My only concern about this swap is the management! I know that there is ways to do it by running both ecus and piggy backs are really not something i like to mess with. I spoke with a few guys from Stage6 here in Jax about this swap, and all they had to say is that its a pain in the neck to get it wired up right, and there is no standalone out for it. AEM only makes the universal kit for it with the harness that has to be custom made, has anybody messed with that before, and is there any other alternative to the ems out there? Im just looking for something that has full capability to tune, and tune right, I cant afford down time in case something goes wrong, it has to be tuned safe. What are the options, what piggy backs do you use, anything would help!

if you are looking for that power range, you will need a turbo upgrade. stock supra twins start maxing out in the 425-450whp range.

slogs3, i am running the aem on my car, all i did was buy a stock supra tt harness and run that instead of the lexus one. i also relocated the ecu to inside the cabin, instead of in the engine bay. there are definetly wiring concerns that need to be addressed even with doing this swap, but in the end you have the best engine management available.

So the supra harness will work fine? Thats great news here, looks like im gonna have to break the piggy bank anyway and go for the swap! Thanks!!
