Is it Japanese? The battery is on the right side under the hood.

Let's know more about the car if you have more.

The blower looks like a clockwise rotation HKS Rotrex type.
More info on the HKS GTS8550: http://www.hksusa.com/info/?id=3767

If I had to guess I'd say that in that setup it adds 75rwhp.

Has to be Japanese (or some other right-hand drive market), as the windshield wipers are mounted opposite North American supplied cars.

if you notice in pic #3 the brake fluid resorvoir is on the opposite side of US vehicles, so it' safe to say this car is probably japanese

That would be nice, but I have to believe that it would void your warranty.
