I have to give you credit for the idler pulley idea. The pictures from your thread helped a lot. With your blower and myy current pulley I could be making 10-11 PSI with a cooler charge of air. That would max the M90 and injectors out. I wonder if that difference would require a stand alone. What do you think??
I know how much of a prefectionist you are, so I am sure that your upcoming project will be a success.

Hey guys, long time no talk.
The car is still running great, I have about 170,000 miles on the clock and it still doesn't burn through any oil. I am still at 9psi, but I seem to only hit 8-8.5 most of the time unless I add some belt slip spray. People still can't believe that my car is close to 17 years old, what a testament to Toyota. I am hoping to paint the car, then take on another engine transformation. Has anyone else installed a m90??

Carlos i kick your topic to the universe, what a thread you have made for us all.
Many thanks for it, even it is ages ago you freaks reacted in the thread i can only say it makes us LS400 owners shiver. My supercharger fever is at its peak now. Can you imagine i live on the site of this planet and my LS400 is 21 years old now and has 430.00 km on the clock.
I have just bought on pallet one UFZE engine with 190.000 km on the clock, it this eninge will be FI thank to your topic and Lextreme of course.
I have one small request if you would ever log in to your thread again:
Is it possible to place the video back on you tube ? It has removed by the owner the site tells me.
And one last question:
Is your LS still boosting ?
Greetzzz from Lexter

Awesome job Carlos
Carlos, what an awesome ride you have and it gives me hope to supercharge my 96 LS400. I have seen Turbo models and Supercharged and I think I am leaning towards the supercharger after reading your posts. I know this may not get seen, but if it does please let me know how the car is running.
I have 122,000 on my now and living in Japan with the car gives me the aility to get parts at a serious discount. Any inputs on what all it took to pull this off is appreciated.
