To my knowledge, the RMM supercharger is no longer available, contrary to what is posted on their site.
Jawnthen has had an SC on order with them for about 6 months. Every time he calls Eric @ RMM he says that they will have all the parts available by the following week and to check back then. After calling on average, every other week for 6 months, I'll take that as a sign that there are no SC's left.
If anyone has ordered and received a supercharger from RMM, between June 2004 and now, please let us know.
Any other DIY SC kits offered for the GS?
I think not.

sc from srt?
wait a second... SRT makes supercharger? i went on their site and found nothing on any supercharger... they did have something on the GS400/430 models but it was a dead page and nothing was showing up.......
i guess SRT is the prime choice for my supercharger whenever that time comes...

Does this engine look familiar? Yes, its a GS400 4.0 1UZFE motor. This motor was transplanted into a IS300. This V8 also powered by a T66 single turbo located at the passenger side. The turbo is considered a low mount. The owner also have NOS.

I asked the owner how much power he is getting. He stated that he only running 6 psi and getting mid 700 hp. I wonder is that with NOS or without NOS and the other question is rwhp or bhp? Lets assume its bhp. From our experience 6 psi can produce about 350-400 rwhp. Even with NOS, I doubt he got mid 700 hp. That mean he must squeeze at least 200-250. Oh well, what can I say?

Any others more reasonably priced ?
I'm not talking about custom one off jobs. There are definitely plenty of those around, but those are not price or DIY friendly options.
Who actually sells a SC or Turbo DIY Kit, plug and play, whatever you wanna call it ?

SRT ONLY sells a twin turbo for the GS4. As I recall that goes for $20-30k depending on what's included.
