I am looking for a GS right now and I am not sure wheather I should take a GS300 and turbo it or take a 400 and make some mods and make it faster NA. How much would a TT kit for a gs300 cost that would put me into 350+HP area? Is there a supercharger for it? If so, how much?

Thx in advance.

SRT has a kit for the GS300 that should fit meet criteria.

I know there are some engine swaps available as well but I don't have that info right in front of me.

If you have a 2nd. Gen GS SRT has the stage 4 turbo that should keep up with the TTGS400. A stage 2 with the intercooler should soot your needs just fine. I forgot to check to, is it a 1st. Gen or 2nd. Gen ?

Something on the stage IV.

Would those fit GS3 as well as IS3? The links only talk about IS300's. Is there a supercharger for GS400 GS300?

Thx for help...greatly appreciated.

Not sure about the stage IV but lexlyf, who works for swift, has the stage II in his GS3.

I think that was his first post about it.

Yeah Retro, same app applies for both GS3 and IS3....
Another thing, I don't think you'll be able to do a TT setup without swapping out the engine.. Just a single turbo, but for what your looking for (350rwhp) a SRT 'Stage4" will be more than enough.. But it's a pricey 12 grand... I was actually contemplating getting the Stage4 or the MrSypher's Stage V.I.P. (Mo and Marken are going to do alittle something extra to my GS if I decided not to get the stage4)..... They X'd the stage3 so you have a choice of the stage 2 (around 6 grand) or the 4 which is almost double but includes inhouse install at SRT.... The choice is yours... Goodluck my friend...

You should be an SRT Spokesman

If I do go with GS3, I am looking at stage 3 kit. That should put me into 300+HP and I can do some little extra mods like TC, LSD to get it to run even faster.

He said all he needs is 350hp(flywheel), the SRT STAGE I will be perfect for this. It costs $3,995.00(+S/H if Retro has it installed himself). Also if he chooses, installation at SRT will only run him around $500. There are other options like Toyomoto, etc... but for the kind of power you want(and buying the finished kit) the SRT stg. I is perfect. Plus Retro, you could always upgrade when your ready to the other stages(i.e. 450, 550+hp).

Thx for the info guys. I have a clear idea about the FI for GS3 now. Looking for the good deal on the car.

Should have specified where I want my power at...wheels or flywheel. I would be looking at stage 3. It seem to have good ammount of power for the right price.

JAC JZS

So you want 350RWHP Then you could also go with a Toyomoto stage I but it will run a little more money(but has easier upgrade ability). The Toyomoto really becomes worth it when you go stage II+ IMO. Below is a vid of a Toyomoto stage II IS300(515rwhp/ 521tq- 659hp) running a 12.4@116 . Also below is a link to someone that was selling a Toyomoto stage III SC300 that has an impressive 729hp(570RWHP/ 560trq).

MrSypher

What did he say??? I must have missed that....
When we talk HP, flywheel means NOTHING.... It's all about RWHP..

JAC JZS

Just going by what he said . If someone says HP then that means HP. When someone says RWHP then that means RWHP .

MrSypher

Well, when I say HP I mean HP weather it's in my butt or at the rear wheels....
