that supercharger fits on the ls430 and sc430, i am pretty sure it will fit on the gs430 as well. you might just have to tweak some pipings i guess. another uncertainty is the ecu tuning, of course

but either way, at 11k? not sure if that make sense....

I think there isn't enough hood clearance with the supercharger on top of the engine...
