    I was reading somewhere on this site about some Supra yakkerwhackers who claimed no one modified Ferrari engines so how can they compare 800 HP Supras with anything Ferrari?
    Wellll, here are before and after photos (sorry about the quality, I'm rephotographing them with a digital camera because I'm too lazy to reinstall my scanner software, will do that one of these days) of a 365 GTB motor, stock before and "tuned" after.
    "Tuning" includes hollow cams from the factory, TRW forged pistons, special valve springs, stainless steel valves, nonstock dual ignition, custom made carb air horns, and *urkk* both fuel injection and nitrous oxide injection into 6061T6 aluminum plates mounted under the Weber carbs.

    Now where is that tuner Supra? lol

    Tuner Supra still has 800 hp, in fact tuner Supra probably has over 1000rwhp.

    Neat what you did anyway :cool: Nice to see someone modify a v12 for "once"

    I'm looking for around 650hp in my race TR

    then again the Slutmobile is twin turbo but she's no racer

    I have a feeling my race 512TR would give a lot of Supras a bad hair day on a road course :)

    So you are runing the webbers as modified throttle bodies for the new FI setup? Cool deal, when are you going to engine dyno that sucker?!!! Can't wait to see the numbers, looks good.
