hey guys i am just so excited now!!! here is a pic of the RMM supercharger kit on my GS430, it feels more powerful now, but maybe only makes like around 40 to 50 HP without tuning, however it drives actually very smoooth and the shifting is just like stock , you can feel the the 2nd gear pulls harder than before~!! i was kinda surprised how smooth it drives.. but now it is running rich so the check engine light is on, gtg get it tuned~
stay tuned guys, i will keep u guys updated.

 

sweeeeet, what are you boosting at?

 

hmm,,..i recognize that place..

 

Glad to see you finally did it Andrew. Call me sometime and we should hook up once I get my computer from SRT (whenver that is). Which method are you leaning to on the tuning?

hey lee wasup.
i will call u sometime and meet up =) it is running actually like normal now, but the check engine light is on, i will take it to XS engineering next week and use their custom computer and dyno tune the car. hope everything will work out ok..

 

one of my fav GS's on the board

 

nice job kyle

after you tune what numbers do you expect to see

 

supercharged 430 very nice

 

off the hooook!

 

kyle
how did you get the rmm kit to fit your 430? ive wanted to do this for a while but iwas told it wasnt possible.. can you explain.. does rmm make a kit for the 430 now? please let me know
thanks
rick

 

I too have been waiting to do this to my car but looks like you beat me too it!

00lexondub the kit should fit fine...there are no difference between the 430 and 400 engine positions so that was never a problem. But now kyle has the dilemma of trying to get a FMU to work right with the car....its all software at this point....

Kyle please do keep us updated on your tuning...congrats on being the 1st 430 to be supercharged....well that I know of anyways!

 

i knew it would fit. but i heard it wouldnt ork with the ecu of the car.. maybe im worong.. but HOPEFLLY you figure it ot so i have a mod in the future

 

Looks good, I can't wait to see the numbers it puts down once it's tuned

 

That's SWEEEEEEEEEEET Andrew!!!
Congrats bro.

I need a drive in that beast next time I am in the neighbourhood!!

 

i too was worried that the kit would not fit the car, i called RMM prior to buying the supercharger, and they told me that they dont know if it will fit...so i called my friend at lexus and he told me it SHOULD fit no problem with the intake pipe being different and some bolts are different, thats all!
the rest of the mounting points are all the same between 400 and 430 but he told me that after tuning 430 should get more TQ than 400, being that it has larger displacement.
i will have to bring the car to XS engineering to let them tune the car, remember larry has a Black Turbo SC430? his ECU was tuned from XS engineering as well, custom job that it. it should be done in a week..we'll have to wait and see..
