Wow! Nice find. This supercharger outperforms the LMS. I'm relunctant on the quality and reliability of the product though. You should get it and let us know how it is. I could use the extra 100bhp.

looks like itll work for the is350 also

"system also can work on the 3.5-liter engine and it can increase the the horsepower out put to 360hp"

and i dont think it out performs the LMS kit probably the same but not as good quality as the LMS kit

among the confusing bits on their product this the fact the "stage 1" kit runs over 10 psi of boost, but the stage 2 kit only runs a bit over 7 psi.

The stage 2 kit comes with fuel management and cooling upgrades... the stage 1 kit does not and you'll need to come up with your own (and good luck finding ones that don't blow the 12:1 compression motor up at over 10 psi of boost).

Nice find. I have a bit more faith is the RGMotorsport SC down in S. Africa but the more kits for the IS250, the better.
