Default Rod Millen Supercharger

Does anyone know what type of supercharger Rod Millen uses on the GS400 setup??? I just want to know because I have an 02 GS430 and I was gonna do a custom setup on..I was thinking of putting a turbo on it but I rather do a supercharger setup because I dont need to make a turbo manifold...also what would be a the maximum psi I could run on the car just to be on the safe side I was thinking about 7-8 psi...what type of parts would I need to make this possible because I knoe a shop that would do the custom setup for me... any suggestions or comments...

RMM used Vortec for their superchargers.

Main components:
Supercharger of course
Bracket-sold on the net for Lexus V8's for 500.00. Can be made by your local machine shop for less if you have exact specs. RMM has a couple left over-give them a call for price.
New injectors
Piping
Pulleys/idlers,etc...

Can be done rather easily especially if you want to run a low boost no intercooler setup.
