2500hp Supra Build

Sick! I did not even know Toyota had a 6.2L. Be nice to have one in a FJ45 on some Spider 9s with 40 spline axles and Goodyear Kevlars

Further down in the comments, Rado responds to a lot of the posts. He said that the Tundra motor is a 5.7L and after they swapped out the crank and other stuff, it bumped up to 6.2L. The custom crank must have given it a longer stroke.
 
If this "street car" was set up specifically for drag it would do ok but as for an all around car definately unusable power.


Oh, and nice wing.
 
What kind of driveline do you put behind 2500hp?

My guess would be some sort of Jerico or Powerglide....either of which made it a questionable street car, IMO. Rear axle I assume would be a custom 9" or something along those lines. Ultimately, as has been said, it likely won't matter since the tires will always be the fuse for the driveline. :ror:
 
I hope whatever it is has a shield over the top of it. Does the 9 inch have a pinion nose bearing similar to a 14 bolt? With that much power I would really be concerned with pinion deflection.
 
I wouldn't trust this thing going around a corner with any amount of throttle input.

Those turbos probably won't spool until 6-7k, so as long as you're careful with gear selection it shouldn't be a problem. ;-)

You sound like you know a whole lot about something you aren't actually talking about. :ror:
 
Interesting

You would have to question 2500 HP until you see the dino sheet right after the pull on the Dino. At least I would.

My Sand Car runs a twin turbo LS-6 410 stroker motor. Ive ran it for 3 seasons and it Dino'ed 868whp w/ 37" tires @14 pounds of boost. My buddies car runs a similar motor that pushes the limits @26 pounds of boost, His is supposed to be right at 1100 at the rear tires. All I can say is his hasent made more than a trip or 2 to the dunes before crushing bearings.

That said anything can be made to do just about anything with enough cubic dollars. The two above mentioned motors are 34,000 and 41,000. So if that supra is 2500whp I would like to go for a ride, cause damb they dropped some coin.

Another totally seperate that was mentioned before was the drivetrain, lookin at the size of those turbo's they wouldnt come on till high up in the rpm, which takes alot of the pressure off of the drivetrain, If you look at the rear tires, they arent that big. The 2 above sandcars with 38" paddles (curb weight of 2300/2500) cut the tires loose pretty easy. Some will say that because its in sand, but believe me ive put dirt tires on my car and its a handful, at least with the paddles it pulls straight when you get on it!!

All in all when those turbos pull boost, even top notch drivers would have a handfull of tire smoke to deal with no matter how fast she was rollin"thumbsup"

$.20 says they'll "detune it" for whatever it is they plan to do with it. ;-)
