What is the transmission ratio like in a supra also? Plus, if you look at the supra's dyno sheet they have a high curve while our '03's have a pretty level line.

high curve is from the turbo building boost s/c build boost quicker and at low RPM giving u the straight line. also the peak line also has to do with if u nail it on the dyno or let speed build up untill ur in 4th and punch it and yeah i'll try to find tranny ratios for the supra's
