I'm confused too. I'm running around 12#s of boost on a built-to-hell motor and the most I'd EVER go is 18#s. I don't know much about Supras, but I don't see any way that a stock blocked motor could handle 35psi AND nitrous. The last time I saw a car running boost that high was a WRC Subaru that was at 40psi and it ended up sucking the K&N through the turbo. He may have unhooked the turbo (you know...left the wastegate open all the way)...cuz any turbo putting out 35psi would be ungodly loud. But it's much more plausable that he was lying his ass off. He must have been if the race was anywhere close.
