    Wastegate Chatter or Compressor Surge?

    Roll call: White/white supras! Rare?

    the power metal sunroof (the only OEM sunroof) was only offered in '91 + '92. considering there were only 3623 and 1193 TOTAL sold in each year respectively, i'd say it's fairly rare.

    Those with a SHORTENED C's, question...

    the c's is a true short shifter. the problem is that the R154 does NOT like true short shifters. all it did was make me miss shifts when it mattered (i.e. drag strip, etc.).

    new vs. old turbos

    there really isn't a comparison- the newer tech stuff has HUGE gains in efficiency. this translates into less heat, faster spool, greater range of use and of course, more power. yeah the old stuff works, but if you can swing the $$ you won't be disappointed.
