    my cousin ended up buying his first supra in the late 90's, a mkii, only cause is had a cd player. he ended up buying another mkii, then selling both for a 88 turbo targa in which he had about 350hp, stock ct-26 with 12psi, and the most expensive thing he bought was his exhaust, and ran low...

    Rebuilding head

    well i looked at the selection at horsepower freaks, and just being new to bigger mods like this, i was amazed at the price. i guess the way i am understanding it is that for bc valves, its 180 something for just the exhaust valves or just the intake valves. not all 24 valves. am i understanding...
