sakataj Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 ok spent about 30 mins on the phone talking with adam at jet technologies 1-323-683-8027 about a supercharger for the gs430! there is FINALLY a forced induction option avaliable for the gs430! its a centrifugal supercharger said it comes with a 8 psi pulley (said a 10 might be standard when it goes into full production) he said its making mid 400 hp (so think like 440-475 hp) anyways he said the msrp is $3000.00 and when they go into production (they are still out about 3 to 3 1/2 weeks on shipping he said) said it may go higher in price when they go into full production but he said anyones welcome to pre-order one for the 3000 which i'll tell u is a hell of a deal for mid 400 hp! (2whitelexus actually owns a jet supercharger for his gs300 so he might be able to answer some ?'s about ease of installation/reliability/etc....hope u dont mind the emails that might start coming at u 2whitelexus) anyways...........he did say NO piggyback unit/extra fuel injectors/intercooler will be added to the kit BUT he did say the plumbing for the intercooler should be VERY STRAIGHT FORWARD.......as far as the injectors and the piggyback i dunno what will have to be done! im gonna email 2whitelexus and ask him what he did and also talk to my personal mechanic and see what he thinks/suggests! OH I ALSO ASKED WHEN THEY GO INTO FULL PRODUCTION IF WE COULD SET UP A GROUP BUY IF THATS POSSIBLE AND HE SAID WHEN THEY GO INTO FULL PRODUCTION WE CAN WORK SOMETHING OUT SO START ASKING YOUR MODERATORS AND WE'LL SEE WHAT WE CAN GET DONE AS A GROUP!hope this helps someone atleast besides me........im incredibly (sp) stoked about the possibility of getting a forced induction motor even though i wanted to turbocharge i think i will settle for a supercharger! hopefully i can find the money and do this!
2whitelexus Posted March 13, 2008 Posted March 13, 2008 95 gs300 with jets supercharger. Picture was taken in 2004/5 at the time of installation as can be told from the tools on the car.
2whitelexus Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 Will this be available for the GS400??? this should be for the gs400 as well. im pretty sure. and heres what its going to look like.
sakataj Posted March 17, 2008 Author Posted March 17, 2008 um slow your roll 2white lol..........blexus u might wanna call jet and ask to speak to adam and ask him about that before you get your hopes up! although since they using the same heads they should mount but to be 100% sure call adam at jet and ask him!
