Then there is BPU+ which is where you add things a big larger, I think Cam gears fall into this, and BPU++ is where you have everything except bigger turbos, fuel systems, and big things like that. In good conditions i've heard of just plain BPU supra's getting 380-410rwhp on a dyno, of course you lose some power going to the streets but that is nothing. if you google supra build there will be tutorials and/or guides that will help you get the highest hp/$ ratio while keeping your car practical (not running 22psi on stock turbos). Because you have a Jdm car the dicks turned the boost down, restricted with exhaust and stuff unlike the usdm which start at 330hp, jdm start at 280, however with bpu upgrades both cars will be exactly the same, you will just notice a lot bigger change from jdm-bpu than usdm-bpu
An aftermarket exhaust is not necessary for BPU.
USDM starts at 320hp (not 330).

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
