sell it and buy a 2G. A chip will only help a little, but you don't wanna chip it AND turbo it. Goes BOOOOOM!

133 will take more than alot of road. that would take like miles and miles of straight line lol. God I remember those days. Then in the end of my Evo era that thing would hit 130 within like 4 seconds from 60MPH. Hell I did 155 one time on the stock turbo and it hit that pretty damn quick and easy. The supra is even more insane at those speeds. as soon as you hit like 55MPH the supra really starts to pull hard
