[Brian1980]

tell me you have videos of the supra, Brian. how much power was that thing pushing? 8.94, that's record setting not to long ago, the new record is 7.9.

Yes it was. I didn't set the record but its nice when your cousin works for sound performance. One of the biggest modifiers of the Supra.
look for previous post there is a link.

I know I love supras but here ya go.

Thats not torque thats dumping the clutch at 9000 rpm and having an engine that weighs 250 lbs over the front end and a car that 4 ft long.

That would equal on most cars broken axle parts scattered all over the ground. No those s2000s can make tons of power for a small engine. some in the 600 rwhp range. It's pretty amazing. I used to be all about displacement. Then I got into tuning imports. Let me tell ya I felt more accomplishment making more horsepower than some big block cars did. The best was tuning my car I went from a mild tune to a squeeze every ounce of fuel and boost/ timing out of the car to net 300 more rwhp with a laptop only.

:spin1: The stock 2.0 liter put out more horse power per liter (120 hp) than any other stock n/a engine ever made. Could have something to with it. I think one of the exotics might have beat it now though.

Jmalone81 Nice car. What size motor? Looks like an early suncoast car. Also did you just rewire the car? I would have moved all the electronics up to the front (thats what I did) . keeps them away from all the vibration and eliments. If it rains or water spray from the burnout.
