Now that's what I'm talkin about!!!
Do you have any more info on the car? It is very nice to see that even though the L6 is considered "bulletproof", when a max effort is targeted the V8 gets the nod. As I stated elsewhere, Incon Turbosystems builds 800hp Landcruisers/LX470s for Arab Sheik types in UAE in the middle east. These guys drive 180+mph for extended (20+min) blasts accross their desert highway/autobahn system. Toyota engines make great turbo platforms.
I am seriously considering a positive displacement type supercharger for the LS. I just had a packaging idea that may make it very reasonable and relatively uncomplicated. I would target apx 5psi to start which should be good for 80-100rwhp and similar torque improvement.

funny you mentioned
Now that you mentioned those Arab Sheiks...why the hell would you want to run at 180mph+ across the dessert for 20 minutes...I bet there is no traffic...are they trying to waste all the fuel they can put in those Landcruisers? common, I know they own great amounts of crude but they can't waste it by themselves...
Why do I always come up with these stupid statements?, please don't answer
Anyhow you can find more info in www.overboost.com they have a small article about the V8 Supra there.

Abdul10000, Incon Turbosystems is in Australia. Dave Inall, the owner, spends a great deal of time in UAE building these supertoys. They have a US presence in Florida. Try www.forcedinduction.com
