I hate to break the news, but it sounds like your car has a case of the Blown Headgasktes's. It is a common problem for these cars. Hence the reason the 93 + Supras have a metal headgasket. It can be fixed. email me for more info.

Thanks

well first thing i would do is check your ignition timing... make sure it's at 10 degrees with t & e1 shorted in the diagnostic box
next thing i would do is check all your vacuum pipes and intercooler pipes... make sure you don't have a leak... this can contribute severly to underpower

what boost are you making?

i wouldn't panic bout the bhg just yet.... do the other checks first

most likely cuprits = turbo to intercooler pipe coming straight off the turbo

lmk how you get on
