Irritated with the MKIV community. Help?

Solus · 06-13-2009, 12:09 AM

Ok so I am trying to do a couple things to that mkiv I bought for my wife. Figured I would jump on an MKIV forum look some things up make some decisions etc. Well lo and behold, the forums... pretty much suck... they are not organized well and not active at all. Makes me have a lot more appreciation for this one (thanks AK for an amazing forum that is well organized).

Point being.. one of the first things I want to do is get rid of those tiny ceramic turbos, thinking single t61 which will lead to needing an upgraded fuel system and a better exhaust setup and intercooler, problem is I cant find much info on it, or even any shops that do a lot with supra's. Anyone have any suggestions?

I will likely post this in some of the site sponsors spots as well to see if any of them can help?

That sucks.. which forum are you on? I try to pm one of my friend your question, who has very nice supra.

I believe there are couple of supra guys here as well.. Hopefully they will chime in..

I googled mkiv forums and supra forums and every single one I found was like that. Thank you for the help

VWVortex is TEH worst!!! I've never seen some much flame troll patrol in my life. Everything I hope this forum NEVER becomes.

If you're looking for a good shop to do work for you, pick Sound Performance. They're essentially MKIV TT Supra specialists.

Did you try Supraforums.com ? Thats the diffinitive Supra community. Talk to guys like Houston T, T66Dawg, Steve Theodore, Ken Henderson etc and you will get every piece of info you are seeking. Those are there screen names so it would be easy for you to get your search on and pm them. Any one of them will give you the answer you seek. Everyone mentioned there has had a Supra over 1k hp so you will be in good hands.

Heres a link to our MKIV Supra we built and just happens to be on the cover of Super Street currently.

Check your pm. I have asked one of my Supra friend. He can help you with any questions you may have.

Check out mkiv.com it is quiet however, there are some people on there that really know their stuff. I had a 97TT that I converted to single...make sure you get the turbo that will best match the characteristics you're looking for.

Good luck!

MKIV doesn't only apply to Supras. There are many cars that are in their fourth generation.
