The proper order for a bone-stock Mkiv Supra TT is this:
  1. All proper maintenance, according to the TSRM
  2. Boost gauge
  3. GReddy BCC (to prevent fuel cut)
  4. Downpipe
  5. At least two or three gallons of 100 octane (race) fuel in a full tank of 93 octane (R+M/2) (note: not a half-pint of octane booster)
  6. A good set of Z-rated tires
  7. Boost controller (note: you can raise your boost using a 10 cent hose clamp - no need to spend hundreds of $ here)
After that, you can worry about optional/additional modifications like cam gears, a front-mount intercooler, an aftermarket intake & exhaust, etc.
