She ticks because she is mad she's sitting the same height as a Honda Pilot

Use the PWR switch for "Sporty Driving", as described in your owners manual.

I honestly don't really like how you posted, and I posted something pretty mean just before and I deleted it.

Anyways, your exhaust ticking is normal, and drive safe..

BTW, your Lexy has a friend

Ummm not to be an *** or anything, but considering you didn't even realize that it was just the metal expanding/contracting making the ticking noises, you're probably better off NOT finding a supercharger online. Also, at $4400, I imagine the car has some miles so you're probably much better off doing some maintenance and restoration. However... if you're really serious about a supercharger: http://lextreme.com/forums/showthread.php?t=10652

If you just want to make the car fast so you can street race, please sell your Lexus and buy a Mustang. Last thing we need is for some ricer to give SC drivers a bad reputation.

how many miles were on your car? Just wondering because I replaced my motor mounts just for the heck of it on my 97 sc3 a few years back at around 145k miles and they still looks very good.
