dan where did you find the stuff for rb20det that is in a english web site?
Whatever your redline is... make sure that your turbo is mapped accordingly. It may exceed your efficiancy range if you rev are reving too high (dunno... but it could)... that and you have to watch out for the efficiancy of your water pump and oil pump at those RPM's... the last two are why Supra's don't go much past the 7k range (even though the rest of the motor can easily do it... according to
http://www.mkiv.com).
I don't think 8k is out of the question though since that is where the GTR is. I would write HKS, APEXi, TODA, or JUN about this subject and see what they say. Let us know if you find something out!
