From what I have read you won't need to do that much to get big power. Adio will fill you in though as his is pushing that sort of power.

You don't need much Irshad, once you've got the exhaust then do the following:

1 bar restrictor ring
Boost controller (Manual or electronic)
Free flowing air filter such as the Blitz LM panel filter.
Decat
Fuel Cut Defender
Colder spark plugs, such as Denso IK24

If the SMIC is in bad condition you'll need to either replace that or get an FMIC.

It's also recommended that you upgrade the fuel pump or even just replace with a new stock one - it's cheaper to just buy a Walbro pump and have that fitted.

That lot should get you there easily and beyond, the restrictor ring is just to restrict the boost but I have read various things saying that they aren't required on a VVTI as the wastegate is stronger and doesn't overboost like the old non-VVTi one but I don't know if that's right or not.

Decat is the big one and the air filter to start with breathing more easily gets the ponies flowing. You don't have to opt for an expensive cone type either you can jsut get a panel filter there isn't much in it.
Fairly definitive list for the basic stuff aido has given you and all of it is fairly easy to do on your own without a garage intervening. Don't be scared of fitting an electronic boost controller either its easier than it looks, and whatever you do please don't go down the cheap mod route with upping the boost the t bleeder mod is a no no. Also typing supra into ebay can be your friend for engine bits ;)

Have anyone had problem with the Denso dropping an electro and killing the engine?
Very common stories over on the GTR section as the Denso use a 4mm tip.

Thats why I always use NGK Iridium, just not sure if the Supra/Aristo have the same issue.

These are the third set of Denso Iridiums I've had and never had that problem, used the IK20s in the IS200 when that was supercharged and it was fine, had some NGK BKR7EIXs in the Aristo and they were ok and now got Denso IK24s in and they're the best I've had so far :)

Sounds like a lot of work to me why not just fit my BEANS mod AND a POWERBAND to get even better results! :whistling:

I'm sure I read somewhere that denso plugs are actually NGK's rebranded...am I right?
aido
No mate I don't think so, Denso and NGK both manufacture their own plugs, however the likes of HKS take the Denso plugs and rebrand those as their own and sell them for twice the price as HKS Racing plugs :)
