If you don't mind me saying so though, that's an awefully big turbo, intake & throttle body to be running with stock cams... Are you sure your turbo is a GReddy T88? From those pictures, it doesn't look like a GReddy T88 to me...

As I said earlier (and no matter who manufactured your turbo), your engine bay is sweet!  This was the point of my post, not to start an argument about turbo nomenclature. In addition, there's a very significant horsepower difference in a GReddy T88 and (what we now know is) your GT47-88 ... my comment about your turbo not looking like a GReddy was trying to clarify the exact specs of your setup, for future troubleshooting purposes.Also note that (from the pictures you posted) I don't see either an HKS DLI or an AEM CDI mounted in the engine bay. If you're not running an ignition amplifier with your AEM, you will experience ignition misfiring under high boost. Although this might partially explain the misfire you talked about, the 18+psi you were running on 91 octane pump gas was likely a primary contributor to both your melted sparkplug and your "100 - 120 psi" compression. Again, to best recommend next steps to help you avoid melted sparkplugs, low compression (engine damage), etc. in the future, please shed some light on your horsepower goals, identify the exact type of fuel you plan to run (c16 full-time?), and detail your application (eg. drag racing?). ...and do you plan to spool up that big GT47-88 with any NO2? P.S. Did you buy your Supra from Chris Msungi? I showed your engine bay pictures to a friend of mine, and he says he recognizes your widebody Supra (less the HKS Twins) from when Chris brought it to Tx2K3...

Yes this was Musgni's supra.. It was a very poorly built motor (still is) As we discussed via messenger, Torque specs are key... sooo many things on the car were done for "pretty sake"
All that aside... I am happy with my current hp.. I am not looking to run some super duper high drag run...The car looks great and it is very fast just under 800hp. I am setting out to make it a more reliable car... sooooo.. a motor rebuild will be coming sometime and when I do the car will be capable of insane power but once agian I will be running 18psi o boost too keep my ass out of jail...
