Default Custom IS250 Supercharger!

I am parting my car, here it is.. the first custom Vortech-based supercharger kit! It fits perfect on any IS250 and may fit IS350's too i believe.. anyways, some info!

All brackets and piping
Custom Dual Pulley Setup
Greddy Intercooler Kit
Greddy Oil Catch Can (converted into coolant holder)
HKS mushroom filter
RB Racing Electric Oil Feed and Scavenge Pump
Samco Hoses
Supercharger Belt
Synapse Synchronic Blow-Off Valve
Vortech 6-rib Supercharger Pulley
Vortech V-9 F Trim Supercharger

This is basically whats included, I am also including 2 pulleys, a bigger one (lower boost) for daily driving, and a smaller one (higher boost) for high hp action! The bigger pulley gives about 2psi.. which is basically little to no power gain, but the smaller pulley will give you 6+ psi, and will give you an estimated 50+ to the wheels.

I need someone in socal to do the swap, because the oilpan was modified for the scavenge pump. The swap will take 4+ hours and will be included in the price of the supercharger, and you can decide to run the smaller or bigger pulley.

Here are some pics.









So.. the price is.. 5100 INSTALLED. That's right! the price is OBO at this moment.. but don't look foward to a big price drop. Any fair offers will be considered.

So far.. this is for socal only, but if anyone wants to drive to me and do the swap.. I'm not stopping you.

Thank you for your time!

was 5100
now 3600

ALSO, i will SHIP the kit now, for 3600 shipped, same price installed.

if you don't get a respond from me here.. easiest way is to email me at johnnysfeng@gmail.com

check out the 3rd paragraph. the smaller pulley should give 50whp+.

the power isn't major since its off the stock ECU. if you find a tuner that will mess with your ecu, I'm sure you can pull a lot more power out of it, these vortech units are very capable of 100whp+.

Welcome to the topic of 2 years ago

And also.. Your first post? It's hard to believe that you aren't trying to bash my thread.

Thanks for the bump though

how well would it work with the is350? since the engine sizes are different would the 350's need a different setup?

I'd be interested to know how much of this kit could be used with an IS350. Was it daily driver reliable?

yes its daily driven reliable.. i'm going to ask my installer if this could be done on a 350.

but basically just like the LMS kit.. their kit fit both the 250 and 350 i believe..

also, price lowered to 4600 installed.

man if you were in houston i would be all over this especially since install is included. someone in cali pick this up... i bet it would be killer on a 250 ir 350. just the look of the intercooler and the sound of it is worth it and just plain badass. glws bro

Just confirmed. Will work on a 350 with a bit difference in boost levels cause of compression rates.
