Tom's Compressor Kit-GS 350
just stumbled upon this on l-tuned.com. wondering if anyone did it already and if so, did you like the outcome? where there any problems during or after install? and what kind of power outputs did you gain? seriously considering picking this up. any input would be greatly appreciated. thanks!

Our Price $15807.27
... Seriously? It would make more sense just to buy another car. Or if you want to really go-fast, join the club and spend $10K on a sportbike and go faster than everything on 4 wheels you ever come across on the road. :P |
dude, be the first on club lexus and get it!
|
knowing the kind of power gain from tom's supercharger kits on previous cars (all v8 lexus), i think 15k is almost stupid... you get like what, 50hp gain or something on the v8. that's a lot of money for not much.
|
it's expensive, but it's one unique mod
|
Might as well go with a wet nitrous kit. Direct port!
|
That's a lot of money for what your getting. For $15K I could buy a K20 engine for my Del Sol, turbo kit, FMIC, coil-overs, new rims/tires, etc. etc. etc. I realize the GS is a lot nicer but for that kind of money it seems you could do a lot more. Does $15K include installation? If not that'll probably run an extra $2K.

Has a machine shop to fabricate all custom piping, mounting brackets and wire harnesses to do it right |
for 15k, do a 2jz-GTE swap
|
As others have said while that supercharger will give you more power the price is ridicously expensive, if you want it for the bling/rare factor then its your money and your choice. Never really researched much into it so I could be wrong but cant we put a centrifugal supercharger setup on these cars (procharger/vortech)? I would imagine this would be a much cheaper route to go but like I said I havent looked far into it since I have a built 500rwhp mustang cobra that is setup for racing.

Although many are suggesting the 2j swap, there are MANY kinks to work out when you do a transplant. To do it right and make it a daily driver requires a lot of time and patience while expensive, a supercharger will help you stay close to stock in terms of maintenance and you won't have so many variables in this setup.
The price per horsepower is on the tall side. |
Go to miami n drop 10g's for a supercharged supra motor swap.. get u to 5-6 hundo hp easy.. it comes in levels.. more $ = more hp... i gotta find the youtube link
