Also looking forward to follow this build. I think it's going to be, as Barney Stinson would say, awesome! Nice work so far. Was planning to do a build myself with the Bullet supercharger kit but when I finished dreaming a decided not to mostly because of two reasons
1) To expensive. To import a kit to Sweden would be really expensive, mostly because the 25% tax I would have to pay
2) The car would be nonlegal to use on the roads in Sweden.
But I'm afraid that reading about this build will make me start dreaming again

This is going to be insane. What are you doing for air intake, looks like the stock scoop?

Nice project, James!!! I'd expect to see over 300 rwhp on your car at final stage.

I'm thinking of doing a cone intake setup or might do some modified on the stock air box.

Great job you're doing! Think I'm going for the same supercharger set some day
Keep it up!

That is one of the cleanest and nicest setup out there for the LS400.
