Maybe check out Real st. Performance website. They have a build recipe for they're a90. They run 9's and spent less than 7k if I remember right on parts not counting some good tires and suspension. All bolt ons.

I'll keep that in mind, thanks. Octane/meth/e is all off the table for long term as things stand now. PI/intake manifold is definitely on the table to match with the turbo.For safe pump gas performance, I'd look into a GC Mid Turbo to deliver 500+whp on 93 and then 600 on some higher octane/meth/E-blend. The Mid will still deliver punchy performance and make the numbers safely.
Why is that, curiously?meth... off the table
My current thinking is it's mostly one less thing to deal with. If I can get my goals without an extra tank to top off, I'll be happier. If meth is going to improve longevity better than, say, an intake manifold PI upgrade, then I'd consider it.Why is that, curiously?
I am following along because I have very similar goals for my build. Doing anything other than pump gas tune kind of have me feeling the same way. Less things to worry about up front and probably a little more reliable. I will eventually get to probably E85 once i consider myself near the end of my build but not for a while. I just want to roll up to any regular gas station, not have to search for specific high octanes or store anything at my apartment.My current thinking is it's mostly one less thing to deal with.

How much of a hassle is meth for you? Consumption rate, etc? What benefits are you getting from it that you don't feel you're getting with an alternate solution?
Absolutely fair.My current thinking is it's mostly one less thing to deal with.
That's good info that fills in some meth blanks for me, thank you. I'm another nocturnal 21 Supra software engineer, but I'm one of the lucky 21s with a March '20 build date....I go through a tank about 1x a week, 2x if I go to the drag strip. ... the Meth is trigger at 8psi + 2700rpms, so it really rarely sprays unless I'm hitting it hard.
I don't daily my Supra (or any other car, I've been FT remote in software engineering for many many years).
When I take it out, I take it out hard . Oh, meth only sprays under WOT as well, and I'm spraying 1000cc/min (2 500cc injectors).That's good info that fills in some meth blanks for me, thank you.

Just out of curiosity, how do you manage to not daily the Supra and go through that much meth under those parameters? Aggressive grocery shopping? I put around 250 miles a week on mine for my hobby, rather than my job.
