Hi everyone.

I'm new to the Supras world and being a more or less rare car, I have this doubt.

A guy sent me the photo of his car (it is for sale) telling me it is a twin-turbo with 239PS

I thought that then twin-turbo always had something like 320PS (or hp or bhp, it is all arond the same I think) and the non turbo 220, so I asked for the engine photo. However, it is not really clear to me still.

Could you check the photo and tell me what you think?
