Hi, i am new to this website.

i just bought my 2nd Lexus , 2002 IS300 5speed Manual
with Navigational System, rear spoiler.

i had 1 question , does anyone know when or if Toyota is gonna make a Supercharger or turbo?

I would like TRD in my car to keep warrantee safe, i only have 200 miles on it.

welcome to the club man.

Toyota/TRD is workin on a supercharger for the IS300. Supposedly they're workin on using the unit used to supercharge Camrys and Solaras and making it fit and useable on the IS300s and GS300s.

If you plan on getting a TRD supercharger when it's out..... beware, because the installation cost will cost you 2 arms and 2 legs.

Maybe you can try other sources. XS engineering in So. Cal has successfully done a turbo IS300. Area 51 has a great supercharged IS300. Check them out.

btw are you ok in NYC.

Does anyone know any sites that carry cool upgrade stuff for the IS300
