Yea but I'll probably never use the port injection rail. It does have an intercooler, which is the reason I bought it, well, and almost 1k off because of black friyay.

AMS

Why did you go with that one over the EOS that everyone raves about?

The plan was to get the EOS, then Black Friday happened and the AMS was $1,000 less.

Of course, right after I bought it, I saw wagner announced a much cheaper version of their manicooler:

isn't EOS the one that you can't change the oil filter with it installed? or was that a different brand?

The Wagner Tuning one isnt at a bad price. Now just to wait for other test victims to try it before me haha.

I think they redid its design and its now as easy as stock to change on the V2 model.

So this is my goal for my "higher power" map for this upcoming season. All the math checks out and this should be attainable on low boost. Purposely keeping torque "low" and more linear, it won't win me any internet hot boi points but it might win me some lap times.

I'll probably use all four map slots with different (less) levels of torque and work my way up to this one. This will make my Supra have way more power/weight than my Evo 10 had and it will only be with three mods. Bolt on Pure700 turbo, Manicooler and catted downpipe, on 93 to boot.

My problem is I have 91 or have to blend e85. I don't think I could flow enough fuel to reach the 500whp that I'd like.
That's mostly the reason I'm keeping everything stock. I'm even ditching the DP and probably the JB4

You got the wrong DP then. My MAP dp has been good for like 5000 miles now. Jb4 hasn't given me any issues either. I just did the xhp trans tune (highly recommend) and now the car has even more low end power (tq limiter removed). I seriously have no need for more power at this point.

Maybe, not sure.
The JB4 didn't give me any problems, it just didn't really seem to help. Also between that and a trans tune: I want to be sure I'm not denied any warranty claims so, not sure about possibly giving them another reason. The car spins tires in the first couple of gears...I can't imagine more torque. That must be nuts.
