If you converted to a single turbo, additional lag may not be as big an issue as you might think. Note that there have been some advances in turbocharger technology since mid-to-late '92 when the Mkiv Supra's oem twins were spec'd. For example, if you got a modern-day single turbo that was exactly twice the flow capacity of one of the oem twins, there would be more lag than with the oem twins operating in sequential mode, but less lag than the oem twins operating in parallel.

Unfortunately you're wrong there. The Mkiv Supra's oem twins are two very custom twins squeezed into a very tight configuration. Replacing them with a bigger pair while still preserving the sequential operation is just not feasible.

Yes. To be more precise, the 2jz-ge driveline differs greatly from the 2jz-gte driveline.

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.
