Swift Racing makes a SC for the GS4 and should be ready very soon. Call or email Mo at Swift for more details. If your willing to wait, there might be a turbo kit for the GS4 be the end of this year.
It really depends on what your looking for.

wait for turbo. like what iam going to do!!
since Mo's best/ultimate supercharger can only get you 12''s in quarter mile, (and you can't do anything beyond that). so Turbo is the way to go.

wai,
well, I think we will just have to see what the new SC can pull off. Might be faster but we'll find out soon. As for me, I'll wait until a turbo kit comes out or unless the new SC gives what I am looking for which is in the low 11's or high 10's. We all know that a turbo can do that.

hehehe ohh well FINALY gsintensive who is doing thr R&D on a turbo for the GS4 ,, ever since I got the car I been having crazy ideas about Turbos for the car but no one has done it ,, and to be honest I didnt want to be the first one u know what I mean..
Aye I am a very big Turbo fan almost went with one of Mo's SC but me not like SC too much, to be honest I rather go with N2O system.
lemme imagine its gona be a V8 twin turbo charged a compressor at both ends of the manifolds.. Ohh dont forget that that main Catalyst converter if gona go out too something I been wanting to get ride of for a while. Imagine the nice boost controlers your gona have the Timers the AHH its too much joy for me i think am gona faint

Im working with a guy right now on a twin turbo for my GS400 Im not sure what the cost is but I know its gonna have around 7lbs of boost the turbo chargers are really aroechargers which were used in bikes since regular turbos wont fit on the gs400 areochargers can fit practicly anywhere (Lingerfelter vette) and they dont need the exaust fan either
another plus is this turbos take 2-3 seconds to react as for superchargers take a second to spoll up while the areocharger takes 0.1 seconds to react

just make sure you don't hurt your engine, in other words don't try and be cheap and save money by not buying any of the electronics, because thats what will keep your engine alive if something goes wrong it can cut the boost right away, almost right away anyways.
i'd say 15K is about equal to a good turbo kit for a GS3, GS4, since there is none, i dunno but it would probobly be more since it hasn't been done before.
