The car the way it is feels great around town but it feels like it runs out of steam up top. I would love a tune that doesn't make me lose low end but add some power up top. I know the tune/tuner is a big factor in this. Would hate to blow the car up with 2k miles on it
I've put off doing anything to the car for too long. I've decided for now I am going to do downpipe (99% AMS CATLESS) and a tune. I cant decide on tune though. Down the road as more options pop up I will upgrade Turbo exhaust etc. Im thinking Ecutek tune from all the research I've done. Is...
Without a doubt there will be alot of work required to get to those levels, but, there is no 7 second GTR that isn't massively modified either.
Also, majority of the people in this forum probably won't be chasing a 7 second Supra, it will not be a good street car, basically a car you trailer...
I think it will be much sooner than that but only time will tell. A90 has been only out for less than a year and many people are already in the 9s. Thats with no trans tuning, limited production on parts and minimal developments because of limited parts. One of the big performance shops will be...
AMS is a big name when it comes to performance, look at their GTRs. I think heard someone from AMS say the A90 may give the GTRs a good fight. I can't wait to see what they come up with
I almost pulled the trigger on Pure 800 and a tune but I am waiting to see what AMS is going to do as a package with the new turbo setup they are testing out.
I've heard alot of good tuners say the same thing you did, its all in the tuning. I dont want a undriveable low end monster that is no...

This depends on the tune. i ran a downpipe with Bm3 OTS Stage 2 93 pump and the car i felt had too much torque too fast. it just wasn't a smooth torque curve like the stock one and made it to where i felt i was spinning wheels more.
Thats my mistake I didn't really write...
I love how this car has no noticeable lag in stock form. After couple days of driving the Supra, my Audi feels so laggy.
I almost went with the Pure Turbo recently till I saw AMS post video of their supra with their new turbo setup they are developing. I'm going to wait and see how their setup...
In stock form the car already has that problem where off the line it will spin pretty bad. Even rolling about 15-20 if you floor it, she will go sideways.
I wonder if the other tunes bring the torque in more Smoothly.
Can anyone put input about the feeling of having a downpipe and tune and if it makes the changes I'm looking for. Pureturbo 800 does add alot of fun from what I read but will i lose the torque down low?
I'm not really after how much more horsepower with numbers if that makes sense. I just want the car to pull just as hard as it does down low without losing down low around town torque.
I've been following AMS pretty closely with their new turbo setup they are working on. Only problem I see with the bigger turbo is lag and loss of low end torque.
If I went with a catless downpipe, cai and possibly JB4 or a custom tune, will the car keep its same characteristics down low but...
Came from, still have my 2018 Audi S6. Two different animals. I'm must admit Supra is much more fun to drive. All wheel drive V8TT in the audi is a blast but Supra has a different feel.
As probably like everyone on this forum im interested in more power. Low end upto about 90-100 this car pulls hard and you can definitely feel it, but, after that it feels like it runs out of steam. What I compare to is my daily which is a 2018 Audi S6, the audi off the line feels slower then...
Thank you guys all for your inputs, been crazy busy at the shop and didnt look here.
Something weird happened today. I was pulling the car out of the shop and I heard the exhaust flap open and now exhaust was much louder. One of the things I did with bimmercode when I turned active sound off...
If I can hold off until warranty is gone, the day warranty expires UPS will be dropping off a lot of boxes. Seeing all these sick Supra's give a nasty itch to modify. I believe Adam LZ is in the 9s with stock motor, NUTS
Yes warranty is my main issue. The thing is my daily is a 2018 Audi S6, I dont know which one to go all out on and blow the warranty. Supra is the best bang per dollar on mods as Audi mods and tuning is very expensive.
If I modify the supra and lose the warranty it will not look good if I ever...
