not so great?...
you are looking at about a 100hp gain on pump gas with no other mods...im shure with cams/tuning and a smaller pulley you would have an unthinkable beast on your hands...
now in no way am i saying "you need this kit"...i just thought i would post the info i have found in an attempt to help you guys out, becuase i understand that by being where i am, i have access to UKDM/JDM/AUDM parts that people could only WISH they knew exhisted...
just the otherday i met a guy with this same kit and a r154 6speed tranny in his soarer...and that car laid waste to just about anything i have ever ridden/driven in with the exception of a Grandnational....

I sure am. So, I'm trying to make it more interesting and go a different route with it.
On any given day I would take a FI v8 over the 2jz-ge. This is beyond the point. Someone was unaware that the NA-T was getting old and I was just letting him know. Sorry, if feelings are hurt.

Hi to everyone, this will be my first post here, though I have been quietly lurking in the background. My name is Paul, I live in Brisbane in Australia, and will be supercharging my Soarer in a few months time. Planing on fitting a 2.3 liter Whipple, with a set of Rush extactors and runnig about 10lbs of boost, injector upgrade and not sure what piggyback I'm going to use yet, still sorting that out.
Further to the Raptor S/C one of my friends has one fitted and he is very happy with it, needed to sort a few minor problems, but you can't wipe the smile off his face now. Couple of pics for you.

Lexus Champion
looks like a very nicely designed kit.
as for the stoker kit, there is a local guy here in orlando that sells a lot of stuff for the lexus V8's. check over on supraforums, his screen name is cowboybeebop i think.
damn, with all the SCs and soarers popping up in MD, i may have to leave orlando, and reclaim my previous title of leading SC organizer of Maryland.
i do miss storm bros ice cream in downtown napptown.

I have been tossing around the idea of a selling my 400 for a 300 and going turbo. But I like the torque of the 1uz and the sound behind it. I wouldn't mind supercharging it. Hmmmmmmmm
