GS430 Tom's/blitz info.
First, Supercharger info for the 3UZ-FE. Blitz and Tom's S/C kit for the Soarer (so should work on GS430). Blitz one makes about 350ps with 0.5 bar boost. DUAL SUPERCHARGER UNIT design.
Tom's S/C kit, single unit supercharger with intercooler design. Intercooler is routed between the supercharger and intake manifold. currently 350~360ps, final goal is 400ps at the end of development.

Dumb question
I know that TRD/L-Tuned is a subsidiary of Toyota/Lexus, but how does Tom's figure in? Aren't they directly related to Toyota somehow? If so, what are the expectations on the warranty status of a Tom's supercharger?
I know that we all dream of a supercharger that wouldn't affect our warranties...is this possibly it?!

it's very close to hp. Like 278ps = 280hp.

One of the big reasons why TRD did not release the SC that it has for the Tundra for the GS400 is the fact that it would not clear the stock hood. They did not want to have to deal with fabricating a new hood just to clear the SC...This no TRD SC application for the GS400.

Hey Globe, even though the application is for the 430 engine, it does not necessarily mean that it will fit under the GS hood. Do you know anything about how it sits on the SC430?

Globe, did I mention that I have pictures of the S/C (that I received a couple months ago? I'm not gonna mention WHO'S S/C it is but it's not Blitz's...
I've been DYING to show them but I was told that if I did with "their" OK, I would be castrated...and I kinda like my ***** where they are...
So you heard 400ps? Hmmmm....
