"Mia" - 2023 AT Base Strato Blue - Screamer Chaotix

[screamer_chaotix]

Hello! With spring right around the corner I figured I'd set up a virtual garage. I purchased my 2023 Stratosphere blue Supra during peak sports car-buying season--the dead of winter. My plans for her are very basic. I'm thinking downpipe and exhaust once Femto finally sets up stateside, and maybe some DW coils that accommodate EDC. That'll probably be about the extent of it. Until then, here's "Mia."

And, a couple of her big sister "Allison." My 2006 Evo IX MR that I've had since brand new in 2006.

FEMTO is already operating out of Florida. AutoTuner is operating out of Alabama.

Oh man, I hadn't even realized. Thank you for the heads up!

Interesting

I also have a 2023 Stratosphere, with a 2006 Electric Blue Pearl Evo IX that I’ve owned since new in 2006.

I’d add flex fuel to the list first and just run the OEM exhaust for now. Save the money until you’re ready to push more power. Makes more sense to pick up an exhaust when you're ready to upgrade to a hybrid. Same goes for the intake.

Clearly you have impeccable taste.

Would that I could. No E85 anywhere in the state of VT or nearby.

Catback would just be for sound. The OEM catback actually works pretty well. 100% not needed for stock turbo and even some hybrids.

DP would be the thing I would do if you are looking for sound + performance gains.

Even the OEM DP isn't as restrictive as some have perpetuated over the years.

My "normal" car is a G-series M240ix and with just a custom tune + E50, everything else stock including the OEM catted DP, it went from 12.4@112mph stock to 11.4@121mph. 4,000lbs with me in it.

My Supra has the oem catback and catless DP and has no issues making over 600whp with a Pure800.

Yep, I made 680whp through the stock catback for a couple of years with no issues.
I changed to a custom 3.5" for weight and diffuser fitment. Didn't make much difference to the power at all.

So stock HPFP at E50 too?
