Schumi Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 I have been crawling the web now for the past few days hoping to find information about available kits for turbo or supercharging the GS430. It appears as if no one (with the exception of Tom's Racing in Japan - limited performance gain for the dollar) makes either turbo or supercharger kits for the Lexus 4.3 V-8. I found one custom installation for an SC430, and a bunch of GS300 kits, however, am hoping not have to guinea pig my car with a custom install in order to get the performance I am looking for. Does anyone here have any guidance or information about shops or manufacturers who may be able to help? I would love to be able to run rings around my AMG and M-Series buddies and think the 430 would be a serious machine (500+ hp!?!) if properly tweaked. Thanks in advance, -Schumi
lawz808 Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 Curious. Where have you found GS300 Supercharger or turbo kits? I've been looking the last few days and have not had much success.
The G Man Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 Even with the force air injection, your GS will never be able to run rings around MB AMG, Audi RS series and the M-Series. The GS is simply not design for handling. You can change the shocks and the springs, change the control arms and suspension links, stiffen up the chassis with re-enforce steel, then you might have something there.
