Give it up, and read the previous post. We are a sport sedan, they are a street legal race car. Think about it for a second.

That would be the Blow-off Valve. It releases pressure, reducing stress on the turbo(s).

HAHAHA... any turbo car can add a $150 aftermarket BOV and make the noise.

Yes, since our cars are so damn heavy. I wouldn’t even be a contest.
And as for the Camero…I think it would be smoked too. A 600 HP Carom weighs a hell of alot more than a 600 HP Supra.

I seriously hope you're kidding, or possibly on crack. The Camaro is by far an inferior car when compared to the Supra Turbo. Sure, a stock Camaro SS will give a stock Supra Turbo a run for its money in a straight line, but throw in some twisties, and the Camaro SS quickly fades. The Camaro is, in almost every aspect, outdated technology. From the dated pushrod engine to the solid rear axle outback. The Supra, however, has a fully independent rear suspension which yields far better handling. I can go on, but I think I've said enough. :pfawk:

Unfortunately there is a lot of old men and their grandson’s have the mindset that old muscle cars are great cars. I wouldn’t think so. They are stone age technology. Bad brakes, interiors, wiring, chassis, etc. Only thing is the engine, only if it has been refurbished.
