I'm actually ordering up the Toms' Lip - should have it in a few weeks. I like it much better than the OEM lip, as I do not like how the OEM lip sticks out beyond the front bumper or the way the sides "kick-up" as well.

We'll see if it looks as good in person as on the photos

According to L-Tune, the roots type compressor unit is good for a max total of 263kw (352.7HP) and 488Nm (360 ft-lbs)!
If my conversion is correct...

Wow, it only adds 46 bhp? That's pretty weaksauce... Especially for $9K.

EDIT: Unless you were talking about rwhp by some chance... in which case, that's pretty damn nice. But I doubt that's the case.

Not in the U.S. - the Tom's supercharger requires a JDM ECM. USDM models are incompatible.
