2015 GS350 F RWD Build

A few days early on this build. Bone stock at the moment. 1 Oct it’s going in to RPM in Denver for:

RR-Racing supercharger
Snow Performance Stage 4 Boost Cooler
PPE headers
Invidia mid-pipe
Tanabe Medallion axle-back exhaust
~~aFe cold air intake SC~~ comes with a new intake

Thoughts?

Eveything is ordered (getting built) and should be shipped by Friday. Adding an AFE cold air intake to the list, also arriving Friday.

Dropped off the car today. It finally moved into the garage around 4 because the Lexus Enform app told me so.

How long will it take to install the supercharger? Would you mind sharing the final cost between the supercharger kit and installation? Does it include headers or any other parts?

Looking forward to seeing some videos once it's done!

The instal will vary and so will the price depending on where but I will have the supercharger, water/meth kit (snow performance), header-back exhaust (PPE/Invidia/Tanabe) and I think that is about it. All told it will be around $12K.

Yeah naturally aspirated engines suffer at higher altitudes. Your SC should help

Little snag. Guess my water pump is leaky so it will add a day to get the part in...hopefully tomorrow. Headers/mid/exhaust installed.

Stopped by the shop yesterday to pick up my exhaust plus a bunch of plastic under the hood. Car will be quiet now that there is no longer a sound generator, he he. Install looks good. Guessing a couple more days. Finishing up the wiring, removing the clock to put in the boost/fuel gauge, some welding (don't remember what for but related to the water/meth) a couple more panels to put back in where the water/meth lines are run. Feels so close.
