the OTHER Supra Site

Hi Folks,

I have joined Supramania and have been reading their posts. Over there, they act like if you don't have a turbo, you don't really have a Supra. My '89 is NA and seems plenty fast. I've gotten it up to 140 mph on the highway. Plus, the engine compartment is cramped with enough stuff as it is. I've seen turbos and I would hate to work around all that plumbing. I've never driven a turbo. Is there that much of a difference? In 1989 Motor Trend did a "Top Ten Shootout" of the fastest cars for that year, and they got the Turbo Supra up to 146 mph max. I've come pretty close to that in my NA. Is the difference in the lower ratio's? Anyway, I'm very happy with my car and I love these boards so I think I'll stick around here, If you all don't mind. It seems a lot less snooty here at home.

Sincerely,

Scruffboy
