I’d be pretty stoked with around 450whp maybe a little more

480whp, seems reasonable with pretty low boost which would likely eliminate the need for a cooler which is common with some of the equivalent E9x M3 kits.

Yep down at sea level a few of them have dynoed at approx 430 whp so a 50 whp bump would be welcome and nice for sure! The current kit now makes about 525whp to 540whp depending on fuel and the type of dyno from what I can remember

Hi everyone,

No need to speculate, here is what the new kit does.

- Basic kit will make nearly 500whp without intercooling.
- With water/meth injection and/or higher octane kit will make much more.
- Intercooler option will also be offered.

what makes the new kit less expensive than our original kit?

(1) no carbon fiber piping
(2) single large BOV instead of 2 BOVs
(3) no ATI harmonic damper to drive the SC
(4) conventional tensioner rather than current billet HD tensioner.
(5) intercooler optional

We included many premium features in our complete kit but we realize not everyone has the budget for it. That said, it’s possible to start out with the base kit, and easily upgrade components over time to suit your needs.

More details and pricing to be announced later in July.

Rafi

Hoooooooly crap. This would put the lb/hp ratio at current GT-R levels
What would putting one on a stock IS-F do?

considering FBO gets you about 50-60hp? I'd say a stock one would put you around 430-450whp maybe

#2 This is my honest personal opinion but if you put a supercharger, your motor should be fully build to withstand 600+hp of abuse, no stock motor is build to withstand that with optimal reliability the guys you know in SoCal and NorCal are duchbags that thought they where going to mop everyone up by simply bolting on a supercharger any TURE car enthusiast would clearly know they are pushing the stock motor to the limits... build your motor!!!

#3 I think your full of ****....anyone with a blown motor would have been pissed and blown club Lexus with bad review about how they spent 10k-15k plus If they actually blew the motor “rebuilt” my RR racing

#4 I read one of your old threads and I’m sorry to say this but what kind of dumb *** question is ...”will the accident even though not my fault come up on a car fax report. Because I know when buying a car if it shows accidents on it no matter how minimal you always offer less.” ... you answered you own damn question buddy!

Thanks I have fan. Go ahead and spend your money wherever you want . Blow your motor if you want . Douchebags have you met spoken to the owners of the cars. I know one of them and he’s really nice person. And me asking a dumbass question probably helped out another dumbass thinking of same question .
