Sorry to drag this up, but I have one of these on the way for my n/a Supra. As far as I can see, the only thing I really have to worry about is weak points in my exhaust system, if I don't abuse the bee*r too much. Would that be right, ya?

I thought that was just on sr20's. I won't be using it too much anyways, so should be ok. I hope.

Ya I presume the "bang" would find the nearest leak or crack, and burst straight through that. I'll find out quickly enough anyways. Anybody got a fitting guide for a mkiv Supra lying around?

I've had mine on for a while now. No problems. Just don't be silly with it, I've never noticed it blowing anything apart.

It cracks me up that so many people would STILL risk their engine even though there are so many warnings.

You are all willing to sacrifice your engines for a few bangs. Because let's be honest, no one buys a BEE*R for any other reason.




Edit: I'd also appreciate it if YashioFactory didn't give any advice out to members of driftworks. He ISN'T part of the real YashioFactory in Japan, and is actually some guy who was almost banned from the SXOC for being a cock. Butters isn't it? Don't hide on here. and PLEASE stop giving advice out on here.

you could say that when turning the boost up, shortens the life span of a turbo.

why would you want to do that?! becasue boost is fun!

What a crock of sh!t.

If you're not sure what 'information' you're spreading, stop spreading it, as it's probably misinformation.

And every time you post on here, you wear my patience out? Or that soon your keyboard tapping fingers will be worn to a nub of their former selves, due to you telling people to put BEE*R's in because 'apernatly' replace the rocker arm, and nothing will break.








(I purposely spelled 'apernatly' like that btw.)

I also think the real Yashio Factory should be contacted and made aware, that someone posing to be them is offering incorrect technical advice on a UK drift forum.

I'm sure there's a law-suit somewhere there.
