2021 Toyota Supra 3.0
I just drove rent4ring’s built 2.0 Supra at the Nurburgring Nordschliefe and noticed that it seems to have more turbo lag than the 3.0 that I have. Has anyone else driven the two and noticed this difference? The 3.0 seems almost naturally aspirated at the top end.

Other than the power train characteristics, the front end feels lighter and front to rear balance seems to be superior in the 2.0.

After 8 laps, I was getting pretty comfortable with the car and started to miss the extra HP on my 3.0!

Not a Corvette.
Just know the Euro 2.0's can option the 3.0 rear diff. Most of them have it. We cannot here in North America.

The 2.0L is definitely more a driver's car if it came with MT, BBK, and LSD..with the same wheels/tires as the 3.0L. That would've been the shits.

I can't agree more here. I shopped the 2.0 in the USA and looked at a differential/LSD swap-install-whatever is out there. ZERO options.
