There really ins't that much of a comparison between a Supra TT and a 996 TT, but I totally respect the fact that the Supra can make that kind of HP. I agree with the German gent, there is no way you could run flat out with that much boost for extended periods of time. My Audi runs 21 psig of boost and I don't dare hold it open out on the highway.
I think there is a lot ot be said for German reliability in cars, but they too have come down in quality over the years. Still though, they are built to travel at high speeds for extended periods of time. No Supra or Japanese car is designed with that being the sole purpose. This is what makes German cars unique and able to run in that manner for long periods of time.
