All years 93.5 through 98 are the same, but buy a TT and not an n/a (unless you want all show and no go).

No limitations (really!). Rear end and 6spd trans can take 1500rwhp.

Single turbo conversion with fuel system is about $10K+, depending on the details and how much of the work you do yourself.

Much of this type of information and lots more is in the FAQ - please consider doing some reading...

Thanks for the info... 10k seems kinda steep for what I was finding all the work would be done by me and maybe I'm missing some parts to complete the swap also what is reasonable price to buy a tt or a single conversion supra

Okay, maybe $7,500 if you go with cheap ebay stuff. I was thinking quality, name-brand components. This is a $50,000 GT sportscar you're modifying, after all.

$20K minimum for one in half decent shape. This is a very rare, highly desireable vehicle.

I may be off-base (apologies if I am), but there are several other types of vehicles to consider if you're looking to build an upgraded sportscar as inexpensively as possible...
