A BMW engine in Toyota's best-known coupe? Time for Manhart to liberate another 200hp
A BMW engine in Toyota's best-known coupe? Time for Manhart to liberate another 200hphas modified the GR Supra; probably no surprise, given the A90 has been around five years now. Its first effort made 450hp, which it sometimes feels like the BMW B58 straight-six might make with a really good fill of V-Power, such is its tuneability. Now things are getting a little more serious, with hardware and software upgrades, for 550hp.
Mahart’s in-house ‘turbo performance kit with turbo upgrade’ is the big news this time around, which we’ll assume makes important bits of the blower bigger and faster spinning. There’s also a new radiator and aluminium charge pipe to keep a lid on temps, plus a carbon intake that’s said to help keep the air coming in cool. Surely won’t do the sound any harm, either.
Expensive, too, it should be said, because carbon always is. Even the mirror caps are €900, the spoiler is €2,670 and the covers for the rear lights are more than €1,000, so it’s easy to see how the full thing would add up. And it would be hard to go without the full GR550 look having seen this. The headline power and torque are available via the €12,000 Performance Kit, with the carbon intake advisable but not mandatory for another €935 on top.
