We rolled off at 25 up to 110 or so the first time and around 130 the next time. I pulled a few car lengths both times. Big win for the S2k. Can't wait to see the Supra fanbois reaction to the videos.

Big surprise there! That Supra is pretty much stock and your S dynos more and weighs much less. Wait 'til it has mods.

I'm running the stock 5psi on the Comptech kit.
Do yourself a favor and upgrade to the 7# pulley + test pipe. After I did, I was like, "WTH didn't I do this earlier?!"

A pulley + belt is ~$130, can be installed easily in your garage in ~30 minutes. Usually net 20whp. Add a test pipe for ~$100 for another 10whp (note that the gains only come if you're FI... stock not much difference).

sorry but I never see a stock supra... after being in a few modded supras and feeling a stock supra you wonder how it ever goes with all that weight...

everyone has their own definition of slow, so there ya go.

If there's one thing I've learned from hanging around cars and car enthusiasts, it's that "slow" is a very relative term.

I've been toying with the idea of a smaller pulley but my car is a daily driver and my only car, with +77,000 miles (supercharged for 55,000). I'm really trying to avoid jeopardizing the reliability too much until I can buy a beater. Then I'll go crazy with it

Thanks for the comments.

Nope. 7# pulley is considered the limit to the "safe" upgrades. It's comparable to the stock Vortech. Just get it tuned afterwards, it might lean out a little.

With the 7#, you can run stock injectors and ECU.
