DJ Wozza Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Did you decide on the Supercharger after a ride in mine ? Best of luck with this, should be a rocket ship !

B15RUP Posted January 23, 2008 Author Share Posted January 23, 2008 Increase your IS300's horsepower from 215 to 305 and torque from 274 lb./ft. to 355 lb./ft. These are the estimated power increases @ 7-8psi from the manufacturers who are VORTECH. I will just have to wait and see what the result will be. I will try post some pics later this eve. I told you I would do it Wozza :winky: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrADeveci Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 That's exciting news ..... I wish I could have done it to mine now :) Don't think Mr Morse ever did get his done, although I could be wrong ? Where are you getting the conversion done? - we all like pictures too :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul-J Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Sounds awesome can't wait to see it done! I bet the petrol consumption on that is gonna be huge!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibby Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Sounds awesome can't wait to see it done!I bet the petrol consumption on that is gonna be huge!! He could resolve that problem by towing one of these with the extra torque and hp he makes :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B15RUP Posted January 24, 2008 Author Share Posted January 24, 2008 I have managed to attach a pic of the supercharger and the Spearco intercooler, more pics to follow.... The supercharger kit has been imported by a Vortech dealer in the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B15RUP Posted January 24, 2008 Author Share Posted January 24, 2008 I was told it was never completed. If it was, bill paid or not paid I am sure the completed car would have been posted on LOC as being completed 100% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B15RUP Posted January 24, 2008 Author Share Posted January 24, 2008 In the short time I have been a member with LOC, there is the bitchyness!! I am not really bothered if Mr Morse's car was finished or not :duh: This topic has been put on LOC to keep you guys informed of the progress with MY IS300 and to gather interest and support of fellow LOC members. As far I am concerned this is the first supercharged IS300 in the UK and I am sure this is the understanding with the majority of LOC members.

Mr Singh Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Its nuts isnt it.. Mr Morse ranted and raving about how his IS300 was going to be the baddest thing the world had ever seen.. Then it fell flat on his face looking rather silly Anyways, maybe this time someone gets it done for real and doesn't take a course of its own. Good luck mate :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
