Realistically speaking (or guessing since I really don't know):

Transmission (stock i've heard is good for 400)
Rear-end (ask soul assasain, he's got one up that high)

wait a sec...I have an idea. Find a post in the sec gen forum and follow the link to his webpage that lists all his mods. That should be a good starter.

a friends of mine had the blitz KKK turbo on his car, a downpipe, apex gt spec dual exhaust, and some other mods but nothing major i dont think that i cant remember and he was dyno'ed at 517 rwhp and 494 rwtq...he moved a couple weeks ago and i havent talked to him so i dont know what else he did to that car to be able to handle that much power and since this is basically how i want my car im trying to find out.
thanks

Ported Motor
Big Turbo...KKK is good, convert twins to one monster turbine
Big Intercooler
Fuel Pump, injectors, fuel computer.(pretty much beef the whole fuel system up)
Haltech or power FC is a good idea
Downpipe, straight pipe, highflow catback.
MSD 6a wouldnt hurt ignition

its alot of work and more then alot of money to do...but if you have the funds, DDDOOOOOOOO IT!

you won't get 450-500 at the wheels with a 13b... they will break! 3rd gen engine is a bit stronger. it might get that kind of power but the car will not be fast! because it won't make any power till like 5000rpm when the huge *** turbo finaly spools. also an engine making that much power will not last long. even if done right. if you really want that power you need a 3 rotor.

Are you stock now? Why is your goal 500 HP? Just go for sumin like 350 & you will be bad as hell. Put the car on a diet & damn you will be fast.

Personally I don't think you would have to put down 500rwhp to be as fast as that supra. Gotta think its a different car, don't need as much HP. Aim for the 350-400 mark & I bet its pretty close to as fast.
