Motor Trend (About the only mag I trust to run correct 1/4 mile times) ran both the Supra Turbo, and the 3000 GT VR4 against each other. They both ran identical 1/4 mile times of 13.6 sec. The Supra had a noticeably higher trap speed (106 mph versus 101 mph for the VR4). The VR4 had a 0-60 time of 4.8 sec., while the Supra had a 5.2 sec. 0-60 time. Basically the Supra had to play catch-up. I have no doubts about 98Mitsuturbo beating a supra in a stoplight to stolpight race, but from a roll, that's a different story. I think everyone here knows that Supras are notoriously hard to launch, in order to get a decent 60' time.
