If you are looking for a rake look then you should get wider tires in back with the same (or larger) profile rating. but wider tires are expensive
Larger wheels are usually heavier which means more rotational inertia which will make them harder to get rolling so you may lose some...
So did you make the turbos, IC, WG, and piping yourself in SW? or were you able to source those and combine them all in an assembly??
How is the engine bay model coming along?
My daily is a 2013 Elantra with some lighting mods. I also have a bagged 77 two wheel drive blazer with a 350 TPI and a lifted 76 chevy truck and of course my supra.
I drive the Supra most fridays unless it looks like rain, drive the blazer on the weekends when its nice (~1000 miles a year)...
It doesn't seal perfectly but it is pretty dang close. I have a DDP and you can hear a small leak when the engine is cold but once it gets hot it seals.
Here is a thread that talks all about it

Yea tuning would pretty expensive if you learned through a trial and error method.
I would like the learn how to tune as well, I want to get a NEO and eventually go standalone but where to even start! Any books on ECU tuning?
I was one of these people when I first started in the turbo Supra game...I figured "higher full pressure means more fuel per pulse of the injector...brilliant I can turn up the boost."
WRONG!!
All it did was lower my MPG...didn't help the car run any better. It made the exhaust smell...
The other side of this coin is that you don't met something on the checklist but the inspector still passes you. We are required to have cats here in Arizona...I don't have one and I still pass visual. Also check if your state has any exemptions for "collectors" vehicles...I know in Arizona if...
Wowzers!!! with no wideband how did they get the NEO tuned properly? With your mods you should definitely have a wideband.
If it all of a sudden started running rich then something obviously has changed...if the weather got warmer then you will run richer...but without a wideband its hard to...
I had a The Fast and The Furious moment not too long ago...I was sitting at a light (my girl in the passenger seat) and a guy in a prelude pulls up next to me...all riced out...I look over and he says "hey nice car"...I say "thanks man" and look back forward...he then says "I just got this baby...
Integrated elbow causes quite a bit of turbulence in the elbow with reduces flow efficiency...the DDP separates the turbine exit flow from the wastegate flow so you reduce turbulence due to the two flows not mixing. I would say the 29whp BIC claims is probably pretty close...I went from an...
I get the same thing with my DDP. You get the cool turbo spool sound at lower RPM but when you get on it...HOLY COW...it screams!!!! I also have the boost lead sound but like you...it goes away when warm.
My BIC DDP fit perfect!!
