You can put me down for one of the first orders. I'm hoping the first group of people will get an extra special introductory pricing. I'll be sure to do reviews and put a vinyl sticker on my car . Keep me posted!!!

I am a big fan of the twin scroll SCs since they provide an increase in power from idle and up (Positive Displacement); it would be my first choice. But centrifugal SCs are more easy to install and remind me of a turbo, yet lack on the low end. Overall, I'd be happy with any setup that adds a sweet sound to the car, has minimal maintenance, and is reliable.

This adds a lot to the cost, and I don't think it would look so great on the IS, GS, or RC.

Yes and the centrifugals require more maintenance usually and can just be more finicky. You don't see the OEM using them. I track the is350 and I wouldn't go with a centrifugal. Its too expensive to throw away a great track weekend because a part doesn't work on the car.

Unless your supercharger is broken, they make boost any time the bypass valve closes even with something as small as a P1SC.
In fact, the power delivery of a centri is nice because you don't have a bunch of torque that causes excess wheel spin with even minor throttle application.

Plus, I don't see this hindering track times (I believe it would balance out) unless there is a substantial parasitic loss from the SC. Overall, still stoked and itching for more details. It is a very exciting add-on for the Lexus that we don't usually see.

I'm not saying they're bad. Sexis350 asked for the disadvantages, and I listed the only one I could think of. I'd prefer centrifugal to other options TBH.
What I want the most is a turbo kit though, but this will do just fine

True, but it makes less boost down low compared to a screw/roots SC.
