Now can everyone stop with the off-topic?

i thought that GTM was going to release a dyno and info regarding the HR motor since they were one of the first company that officially stated that they were going to be at sema with HRTT. i still want to see official claim of what we can expect from the HR, and what its limits are.

You can't compare the turbo kit for a supra to the VQ. It's like comparing apples to oranges.

the reason i said ur still limited to but one turbo is cause of how short the power band is, it takes forever to spool up cause of the exhaust configurtion, and the power falls off pretty quickly cause of the exhause configuration again. a single on a vq makes for allot of exhaust back pressure making it difficult to get a wide powerband unless ur in the low end of power (350-400ish whp). and unless all u wanna do is drag race, there is alot more to a car then peak power. i prefer wide power bands, but if a short peaky power band is ur thing, then go ahead and blow 11k on a single turbo set up.
i'm not trying to talk anyone out of buying this, just stating my opinion that its not worth it, especially considering that the guy asking about this as thinking of taking out a loan to do this. it'd be a much better idea to wait till the greddy or gtm kit comes out and save the money till then so that u don't have to get into any debt.
+ see peak350's post, he also makes a very valid point

its similer to the previous vq (the de), but alot of the internals (if not all) are beefed up in the hr
