I'm an RB fan through and through but I still respect the power some of the Supra guys are getting.

I'd say the most powerfull RB ever built would probably be around 1600hp but I know of one Supra motor with over 2000hp (big capacity difference though, 2.6/2.7 to 3.4)

If you have plenty of money it seems both motors have great potential but in the 1000-1500hp range it seems the Supra motor is probably easier to get that power and its more reliable.
