I decided on the Supra. I just got the bootleg version of "The Fast and the Furious" and loved watching him kill a Ferrari.

That made my mind up for me. Thanks for all the help guys. I really apreciate it.

Get a Supra. It's easier to get more HP reliably and it handles just as good as S2000 with proper suspension tuning. You might want to check out www. mkiv.com They will tell you what's up. (Sorry S2000 crowd, but Supra is a step above in the "Sports" car market.)

The only thing they lied about was the sound of the car, which came from a car with twin HKS turbos and an Apex N1 exhaust.
actually he used to post on the fast and furious board when it was up at before the movie came out. The fastest he ever ran was 13.4. I talked to him quite a bit about it. The car did not have 600HP it had more like 450...at least that is what he said...and he does own the car. As far as NOS he never mentioned it. The car in the movie was not an accurate reflection of what the real car had...big surprise. The dodge charger in the movie was a shell and had to have a hydraulic lift system to simulate a wheel stand...funny, it could spin the tires and do a wheel stand! hahaha...stupid movie....

I'm the guy Mugen and Sev referred to with the turbocharged S2000. If you're looking for a street racer, get the Supra. If you're looking for something that's pretty good at street racing and something a little out of the norm, go with the S2000. I'm much happier with my car since turbocharging, not just because it's much faster but because now I can launch at 3500-4000 RPM's stil get out of the hole pretty fast and run down and pass just about anything that might have gotten me out of the hole. I still don't like to race from a dead stop, I'm still a little cautious about the reliability of the drivetrain.

Today, my mechanic is pulling out the dash to install my gauges (boost and egt) and possibly mount my V-AFC in the dash as well. As soon as that is done, we will re-dyno the car and post. He should be done late tomorrow or Thursday and I'll post dynos then.
