Whats the best way to go about doing this for my 2006 sc430? Turbo? Supercharger? etc?
Ive searched around the net and I've read people mention Tom's 3UZFE Supercharger and Blitz UZZ40 supercharger., yet Im not sure which is better.
And are these things in addition/supplimental to S&S headers + exhaust?
For those who have modified their sc430 in such ways, in what way have you found its effected the cars performance?
edit: What about tuning the computer so the car has higher output? Have people done this yet?
thanks guys

when you say faster, how much faster? doing FI is usually the way to get more power, but a lot of money and work needed to do it right. tom's super charger is super expensive and to be honest i think the hp gain is pretty silly
heads and exhaust, those are for some gains but i don't think it's dramatic. if you want, put in higher stall tq converter and change to a lower gear ratio rear end will give you quite a boost on the performance

All the ready made FI kits are very low power ie 40hp. Custom FI is the way to go. Downside is very expensive and expect to be guinea pig, so expect reliabilty to go out the door.
I would do headers, tq convertor, camshaft, piggy back etc could see 80-100hp. Or cheapest/easiest way would be nitrous.

So far my plans are:
- S&S headers
- blitz tt exhaust
(- softer/better tires)
I assume the Lextreme torque converter has been working out for you. What would I do for camshaft/piggy back ?
I dont want my car to be a mechanics guinea pig
