LM Designs goes to the Bradan Group

Posted on by

LM Designs took a special trip with Costas Alestas, a good friend of ours, to the Bradan Group in NY. Costas just recently installed a brand new 3.2L stroker engine built by Sound Performance for his toyota supra. Our mission that day was to get a street tune on the supra and push some decent power. As soon as we walked into the Bradan Group we were amazed of how clean the entire shop was! As soon as you walk into the main entrance into the garage you’re bambarded with supras all over the place, it was a great sight to see! Most of the supras were getting engine work done and some kind of a tune. Check out the video above, Costas’ Supra on the dyno!!!
