Yes you can... YOu'll need the 7mgte exhaust manifold and the turbo as will. YOu'll need to get the oil line as well. You'll also need to run some 295cc injectors off from a 7mge. YOu might want to consider a metal head gasket while you're at it. YOu'll need to upgrade your clutch including your exhaust system. YOu'll need a piggy back system and you should be able to run about 8-10 psi safe. hope this helps out.

With the upgraded injectors do you need to change anything else with the fuel system? I.E. Fuel Pump, Fuel Pressure Regulator, etc? I am looking into getting a 84 MKII Supra and am trying to find out a bit more on modifying it.

You'll need to consider a walbro fuel pump and get a better fuel pressure regulator as well. If you want more boost make sure you get a AFC. hope this helps out...

What year MKII are you going too use. I did it a couple of years back with no piggy backs and just a RRFPR. 10 psi on a stock MKIII intercooler worked fine. When I upgraded the intercooler and pipes and added a HKS EGC I was able to go too 12. Stayed there for over a year with no problems. In that time I did kill a clutch and added a bigger exhaust. Still on stock but cleaned and blueprinted injectors.

If anybody is wanting to look at throwing a 7mgte turbo kit on a 5m, you should check out Rabid Chimp's turbo kit at http://www.rabidchimp.com/mk2sup_rcp_ct26turbokit.htm

Nice exhaust.....Did you have to drink all the coffee before your mom would let you have it?
