I was under the impression you couldn't get these kits anymore? I would love to have one of these on my IS350. I know cost vs reward isn't that great but im sure this with full bolt-ons makes the car pretty fast. And honestly I'm willing to spend the money as I would rather have a supercharged 350 vs an IS-F. (i like the way 350s look more)
With the low boost did people blow up their motors?

They don't sell the kits anymore (and only ever sold a few).
I imagine his list is for people wanting to cobble their own kit together.
AFAIK nobody running the stock 5 psi ever blew a motor... but they didn't make much extra power either for their $6000... (40-50 whp).
With headers, intake, and full exhaust you're looking close to 10k installed to pick up maybe 2/3rds the power spending that 10k on an IS-F instead gets you, and you're crapping your powertrain warranty to do it, and still stuck with the inferior ISx50 transmission instead of the much better one in the F.

I guess I'll just stick with a swap in this SC400 i picked up.

hey everyone, new to the forum, but one of the main reasons i hopped on here was to take a look at what other owners had to say about forced induction. any of ya think a remote turbo setup might be more cost efficient? and an easier install?

US buyers at least are going to get better bang/buck just buying the next faster IS rather than trying to make theirs significantly faster... (unless you count nitrous, which is pretty good bang/buck, but only in small bursts, and only if done properly)
