Hey, another noob to tear apart... JK, well hopefully... looking to purchase my first supra pretty soon:icon_bigg i'll be picking one up with a 1JZ and i would like some guidance as to what i should begin with, after research/lurking and my own thoughts and preferences this is where im sitting.
(This is assuming it's stock, most likely a JZA70 from Japan)
Full 3" or bigger exhaust
Intake
Boost/Wideband gauges
Large FMIC
Heres where i get lost, that i know of there aren't many "tuners" where i live and i have no experience doing it myself (just chipped my turbo golf). Most standalones come with base maps or stock like maps that need to be adjusted to your specific car (or at least thats what i thought), so how noob user friendly are these standalones, are they something the average person could pick up and use? I will be going to a single turbo conversion, but that will probably have to wait while i pay off the car. So stock twins will have to do for a while.
*Specifically i was looking at an Apexi Power FC as i know a few people who have used them to tune FD's* Is there something else i should look at?
Note: My power goals arent ridiculous, so with a decent size single turbo set-up with decent tune (hopefully done by myself) and supporting mods i believe 450 WHP is reasonable, am i safe to assume this?
Thanks
