Hmm, not a fan I'm sorry to say. For me the SC430 isn't about speed and trying to eek out maximum BHP. It's so much more civilised than that.

agree with barrie in that it all looks too tight.

TOM's compressor works well with this car.

100% sure they will rely on a piggy back ecu which is never as good as the factory one............

still like to own one tho !

For the money its hard to justify 60-75 additional horses (£7,000) for the Toms or the Blitz supercharger. I think that Lextreme TT has long been broken and returned to stock.

Theres been a number of TT SC430's including this very tasty one.

Would that just plop straight into my LS430?

Should do, but it was just a one off TT conversion.

With the amount of money it cost to do that conversion. After watching the end result I think everyone would agree it was a waste sad.gif

Hi All, I think the chassis and suspension are not designed for that kind of power. The model to go for would surely be the ISF. Suppose you might stick on a couple of nitrous.
