Default Supercharged IS-F from 0-60 mag for SEMA

Sorry, if it is a repost, but I couldn't find the orginal thread if any.

They have pics of the supercharger:

I wouldn't want such a crappy SC job on my car! Look at that plate in the middle !

The exhaust sounds pretty good and I see they did away with the fake exhaust tips. The roots type supercharger setup looks a bit insane.

I really like the exhaust sounds agressive. Celsius I just came back from a meet and there were a couple of GTR's, are you considering the spec-v?

pretty cool...but I noticed that that exhaust by greddy...it seems like the bottom one has actually burned the bumper or they made it to be molded onto the stock bumper....have to see it in person at Sema...and also to see if it will rattle...heh

Whoa that exhaust is sick!!! Those giant quad tips are insane. It looks like they had to alter the stock bumper to make it fit tho, which is not ideal. Maybe they are looking to sell a rear bumper + exhaust as a package.

No spec-v for me, the regular GTR is priced too high as it is! lol

But, I really hope the numbers from the SC come in decent!! Is anyone making an lsd for the IS-F?

The only question is if this exhaust is designed for a forced induction application...meaning, if the diameter of the pipes are too big, your doing to definately lose some torque. The exhaust definately looks nice, but I'm going to wait until I see some dyno curves and some numbers before I change the already very nice exhaust on my IS-F.

Is this exhaust just axle back, or complete cat back with the secondary cats removed?
