what is the the turbo that i shold use and what it's cost
1 - please find out the motor octane of the fuel that you're planning on using. Octane rating - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the US, typically we see 87, 89, and 93 octane available at the pumps, using the (R+M)/2 formula to calculate the octane. Are you saying you can get 98 octane 'race fuel' at the pump where you live?
2 - 600hp wheels is typically referred to as 600rwhp.
3 - do you already roadrace? which tracks?
4 - do you have an auto or a 6spd?

If you're planning on making 600rwhp with (for example, 93 octane (R+M)/2) pump gas, then you'll need to supplement with alcohol injection. There's really no way to do this with a 3L engine and 93 octane fuel. Honestly, it's doubtful that you could do this reliably with 98 octane race fuel as well, especially if you're using a turbo small enough to roadrace. For roadracing, you need a relatively small turbo so that you don't have to deal with terrible lag coming out of the corners...

Assuming you'll be supplementing with a methanol kit, you'll need to budget about $5k for your turbo kit, and then about another $2K or so for a proper, professional install of the turbo and the meth injection kit. Based on what you've told me so far, a 67mm turbo should do the trick.

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.
