    Figured I would share my thoughts

    Strip the black one and put it on a rack and build 1 decent car out of the 2. The big component is straightening a shell is them removing and refitting parts if you rock up with a bare shell on a trailer it's not going to cost a lot.

    You can't win.... No matter how much you tip into that it'll always be a rusty Supra.

    what size intercooler are you running?

    89w: You might notice a touch more perceived lag but nothing that will make it undrivable, personally I like to future proof things and get the very best parts in place even if they're not needed right now ;)

    what size intercooler are you running?

    Nothing to add to the pics really they tell it all ;) On my car there is pretty well 1 way that everything will fit in there so that's how it came out. The 4" core was well worth the hassle in fitting, if you're running a modern BB Turbo ignore EVERYTHING you think you know about Lag/IC...
