Motor is ported so a 75hp shot of power @ 10psi = alot more power than builing to max psi over time.Also if you run 15 psi only by 7800 rpm your intake temps are way higher than mine just comming off n2o no matter what ic you may be running thus at 7800 rpm I keep more power at the same boost level also the vent boost pattern is 10psi 2200-4000 13psi 4000-7800rpm 7800-redline 15 psi.This this will also be better on the turbos life span than 15psi always.And at a 75 shot your trading 5psi of boost for 75 NOW hp and like I said at 7800rpm the intake temps are far cooler for the 15 psi .I have run the same car with all the mods before adding nos and @15 -16.5psi alltime and I will never go back.THANKS ROB

supras are not as big as you make them out to be. Quite a few of the supras with hardtops weigh in from 3000lbs to 3400lbs (stock hard top weight). My targa weighed in at 3500 lbs with a full tank of gas and this was before I did a single turbo conversion which lightens up the car a bit.

BPU have no chance, maybe bpu+++ with good amount of weight reduction.

Plus if you factor in the price of a Supra, you're probably at the level of most stock Supras entry price for the price of your mods + your car give or take 5K.. (I think)

Respecognize!
once again...dont not use BPU in any sense of the term! its retarded. You cant not measure the preformance upgrades of a car in + symbols! you dont see F1 announcers saying "and here is jimmy whateverthefook in the #5 car upcoming up the rear." "yea, john, he is running BPU ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ while his comtenders are a bit up on him with BPU +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++!++++++++++++++++++++ ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++++++++"
no you dont. why? because its making words replicate the car select screen from NFS underground.

^^lol i dont know
reason why BPU got out of hand is because everyone started using that term for every car when really it only pertains to supras..
i mean its ok to say bpu cause that means basic performance upgrade but saying my focus is bpu ++ is stupid cause you dont know..supra owners know what that is in terms of their own car..

3400lbs is a mighty light Supra btw. Their published dry weight is 3445 and with 18 gallons of fuel, fluids and normal driver (180 lbs) that is around 3800lbs. My RX-7 with a full tank of gas (tourning edition, single turbo, roll cage, etc.) and me in it is 3020lbs on the scale at Silver Dollar. I would love to know how people are getting RX-7s down to 2700lbs with full fuel and driver.

To the people trying to be smart asses on the whole BPU++ thing. From my experience, yes, it means something in the Supra world, it is short for which/how many mods you have, instead of listing all 138 ******* ones you have. I don't have the list memorized, but isn't just a simple "my car is BPU-infinity" like some people are trying to badmouth.
