My redline is about 500rpm higher IIRC with the hybrid turbo, the combination makes it a lot more fun to use on the road; peak power is at the top end end now too - drives like a petrol sports car and not a diesel TT now!

Mine's now up to a whopping 1530 miles! ? :drive:

*put's on flame suit and flak jacket, grabs tin hat* I've actually found now I have a few more miles on it mine is less and less of an issue... Although as and when the clutch dies I'll probably remove it still.

I'm assuming the mis-sell would relate to final value or exit options? It's a strange one...

Akrapovic stainless link pipes & titanium silencer + whifbitz downpipe. https://www.supramkv.com/threads/uk-black-manual.18587/post-346745

Little video, shows how unobtrusive the exhaust setup is whilst still having a roar under load.

I traded my LC500 for it, so they had to pay me! ? :cool: :lol:

They actually tried to get me to finance mine even though I was buying outright!

Whifbitz do a few options, might be worth asking on the wider forum for videos & opinions. I had an Akrapovic silencer that made very little difference with OPF and CATs in place. As for the MOT thing... its each to their own. Replacing the OPF/Downpipe if needed isn't that arduous. :)

https://www.armytrixuk.com/ Based near Leeds IIRC. I looked into one of their systems for my LC500, they are quite responsive to email etc.

Main dealer or respected independent are usually considered good. (The latter is often better in he eyes of an enthusiast)

If it's done in line with Toyota requirements and using the appropriate parts then it should not be warranty impacting.

It was dry AND warmish on Sunday, so as well as going to Upton Bridge I finally got the chance to actually use the throttle... she really does shift now! :bow: :cool: :drive:

Mine has only ever been to Whifbitz, and will probably only ever go there now. (It's a bit of a trek, but I really don't want Toyota "accidentally" locking my ECU in the event of there being a recall etc)

It's an August 2022 car that I purchased from Toyota July last year - it was a demonstrator that was mothballed by the dealer when it hit 200 miles. :)

It occurred to me that a lot of the Supra's I see on here and up for sale tend to be 2nd / 3rd cars and hardly used. Have any of the UK owners hit larger mileages yet? With the dismal weather since I got mine it's sitting at under 1400 miles still! :drive::wave:

Glad it all worked out for you. :) There's a nice LC500 V8 up for sale on the L-OC at the moment...
