That’s awesome on your temps! Why did you choose the Wagner over the EOS or other brand? Ease of install?

Design and cost. It’s $1600 cheaper than anything else currently available.

Well well... An intake manifold option that doesn't break the bank you say 
just has me wondering how or why they were able to produce this for so much cheaper?

So all last season I tracked the car on 100% stock power. I love power as much as the next person but I had some specific goals I wanted to hit before moving to aero and power.
Well, I accomplished those goals last year. Now it's the new year, I already posted that I upgraded to Verus Aero and now I have been working on the power part of the equation.
My goal for power was to have a very driveable track tune that I could beat on all day long, no huge torque hits to upset the car and no big boost numbers to create a bunch of heat. I'm not chasing numbers, I've been there and done that and that is not what I wanted for the Supra. I came to the conclusion that I wanted a powercurve that mimicked the Porsche GT3/GT3RS. Yes, those are NA cars but their power curves are very track worthy. Plus, anyone that has been in or shared the track with those Porsches can tell you they are very very fast.
Well, the tune is still being worked on but the power has already surpassed a Porsche 992 GT3 by a good amount and there is still a bit more in it before I would call it finished.
**again, this is not about chasing numbers. Could it make way more torque? Yes. Could it make more power with the fuel used? Yes. That isn't the point.**
Power mods:
Pure 700 turbo
FTP intake pipe (oem airbox, oem filter)
Wagner intake mani-cooler
MAP GESI catted downpipe
E30
Bootmod3 ecu tuning
More to come!

Yes, just to combat any possible knock. If I start getting fuel starvation more easily, I might have to go to a lower blend. We'll see!
I have it setup for full flex-fuel capabilities so I can run it from E30 to E10 (93).

Holy shit, that torque curve is flatter than a picnic table!

I'm really curious about how you're going to source your ethanol and how you're going to get it to the track.
Buying E90 by the drum and mixing it seems like a good way to go along with a flex fuel kit.
I'd like a track tune with something more knock resistant than trackside 93. I won't do methanol again (was a huge PITA on my STi). I'm not sure if Thompson/LRP/Palmer all have the same unleaded race gas available. Buying and mixing my own ethanol seems like the only viable option.

Great question! I was all about the E85 life with my Evos and lugged a ton of containers to the track all the time. However, that was full E85 so I had to bring a ton.
I wasn't going to use any ethanol with the Supra but I found out that there are two stations very close to me, one being literally down the hill from me, about 3 minutes away. So it was hard for me to say no.
For my last event, and first event with a ethanol mix, I was able to fit three 5 gallon jugs in the Supra, along with all my other track stuff. I had two jugs with premixed E20 in them and 1 jug with full E85. I was able to do five sessions with no issues. The full E85 jug I used towards the end of the day to basically mix E20 in my tank.
What I will probably do now is just bring two or three of the 5 gallon jugs with full E85 and do the mixing in the tank.
I also slightly overfill on Ethanol on the drive to the track so when I put some normal 93 in, it goes back down to my target mix.
Not all tracks will be feasible for this. Palmer for instance will be okay for the first day but if I do two days, I won't have ethanol for the second day, which is fine since I am running a flex fuel tune and can run 93, just won't be as powerful.
