Agreed. Another item to consider - to push 800hp, you'll need to run a huge shot of meth/water injection, or race fuel. Ask him how much horsepower it'll put down (rwhp, not "hp") on 16psi (max safe boost pressure on pump gas and a near-oem timing curve).

Be sure to get a detailed list of modifications, maintenance records, carfax, and the exact per-cylinder compression numbers (preferrably tested in front of you and/or by an independent Mkiv Supra TT expert).

Do you need to daily-drive this vehicle?

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.
