Yep. It appears to be a better option than the Tom's unit though specs for this kit is lacking. Another option is a preowned RMM kit which I had on the GS4 though some minor fabricating will be needed. Still another option is to just go custom.
BTW your links are bad.

JP430 is the only that I know of that has one on his GS430. He Doesn't have any pre S/C dyno# but w/ S/C decent safe gain. The S&S headers added made a world of difference I think it jumped 43rwhp and 37rwtq.

I think the LMS one is supposed to produce an extra 120-150hp and is only about 5-6 grand. (if it ever comes out)
Maybe you meant the Toms one. Thats the wrong side of 10 Grand.

BTW does anyone know anything about Toyota producing a twin supercharger themselves in Japan?
I read about this on another forum and he said they where £5 K ( $3k US ) and it was a Toyota part.

LMS is selling the Supercharger for the SC430 and GS430The #'s that were posted for the fiirst SC430 they did I heard were 220 RWHP to 313 RWHP and the TQ was 306 RWTQ.
I don't know what kind of Dyno was used.

JP430 Got LMS's first made GS430 S/C and his RWHP was 313 and 300 RWTQ @ 6.5 psi. JP430 did say at cooler temps. he did see 320-325 rwhp @7.34psi
I think they still had to do some tuning.
Adding the S&S header several days later he bumped up to 339 rwhp & 316 rwtq with 43rwhp and 37rwtq maximum gains within the power curve.
These were all done on a Mustang Dyno which I hear usually runs lower tha w/a Dynojet.
I hear the LMS S/C kit starts around $7K + and you get a fuel management system, FMU, that you can fine tune from the drivers seat with changing conditions good gas/bad gas ,altitude change temp.changes It sound like a quality kit but it is more than what the RMM was going for w/o a FMU.
From what I've read I think it is the Blitz's that is 10K-11K and I believe wald has one for around $14K-$15K. Here is info. on HKS's
