What did you do to your Supra today?

Went for a scenic cruise in a city called desert center. I saw a lot of desert.



In the middle of all that, this guy decides to make his own course.

Great job amigo. Was that GR86 purposely going off line (as he shouldn’t) expecting you to pass or just missing his apexes watching you in his rearview mirrors? Nice to have a track that has a lot of runoff - practice areas for things you want to improve on, find your limits, etc. Be even more fun if it ever got wet. Early morning dew?

did you get to install this?

I managed to install the hpfp...next is the injectors. I had to do some digging to work out the s58 injectors and the exact Bosch part number.

For anyone who is curious:

S58 injectors oem part number and btw some b48s use this same injector:

13538671991

The bosch equivalent is:

0621500502

Installed the VX1. Material, construction, fitment, are all A+.

Back to OEM wheels / all season tires for the cold.

Not bad!

He stayed on line. I passed him on the inside right when the next turn was another right hander. So I would say he did it the correct way. But ya most of the tracks out here are in the middle of the desert so there is endless runoff. The issues are rocks and some places have very soft dirt. I have seen cars flip if the wheels catch the soft stuff. So not really ideal. Plus it makes a terrible mess on the track when you get back on and they never clean the rocks off. And no, typically no morning dew. Its too dry out there.

Holy shit that’s massive. Any pics with it on?

Mounted the rear diffuser. It’s a little bit of a Biatch to screw it in, but fitment is A+

kyle and razorlab advise to loctite these nuts as vibrations can loosen them, along with check-ups before track days just an fyi

Thanks. I didn’t use the OEM screws. But it can see it may rattle.

Oooohhhh, since we're peppering semi, or completely unrelated posts in here...I discovered a design feature on the complete-shitbox FiST I just bought. I took one look and instantly thought @BMWAF and others would get a kick out of it..

Now back to our regularly scheduled programming

If it only rattles, you are lucky. Most vibrate loose and fly away (the whole diffuser). Also make sure you keep checking where it mounts to the plastic webbed bits as those will eventually fail.

The mounting of the product leaves a lot to be desired.

I don't think that is stock, or maybe a design update in the later models. Both my 2014 FiST and my 2016 FiST didn't have those.

Installed the Mad Intake with the CTS turbo inlet inspired by @razorlab. The turbo sounds amazing now. Ive also noticed a tad throttle response improvement and also when downshifting it’s more responsive. Less “rev hang” compared to the stock intake and inlet. Turbo also appears to be in mint condition.

How loud is the MAD intake? I already have the CTS turbo inlet on stock box + Paradigm intake pipe
