All the videos I saw stock Supra traps 108-110 mph in the quarter, surely decatted stage 2 340/440 trap higher.

And the usual reminder that the aggresive BM3 tune only makes your burbles louder. It doesn't make the car faster.

The most consistent thing I can think of is caranddriver testing the Supra at 113 and a 440i at 109. Not considering any weight, gearing, blah blah, I agree that a stage 2 catless 440i should wipe the floor with a stock Supra. You're adding easily 8-10mph to a stock 440i which should sit at 118-120.
Again this is just what makes sense in paper but I think the stage 2 tunes need more track time. There was a user who did 118 FBO 340i BM3 I believe. That should pull a stock Supra reasonably.
