Supercharged....!

[ALTEZZA S]

:D Finally its been done! I waited for 3 days, but it's all worth it now!!!!

i love the power heaps torque!!! everyone should get it too.

I just love driving it and sounded very nice too alot tougher just love that belt sound!!! i also put on the oil cooler and AT oil cooler on it just for in case!

well i havn't a exhaust yet, i'm thinking to get Apexi N1 for it!!! i put on the oil cooler and AT oil cooler on it!

Now its running 102kw at the wheel standard was 79kw, I'm thinking to get more power on to it. my goal is 140kw. Does anyone tried Uni-chip yet? does it goes with the TTE S/C?

[DaveEllen]

just had mine done and agree with you !!

i deal in HP whats the kw equivalent ????

Get the TDI induction kit................its amazing few more gee gees and the most awesome sound.

Drove through a little market town with tall buildings & narrow streets at 3000 rpm in second and people stopped and stared !

PM me your email adddress & I'll email a pic !

Nice guys, i wish i can afford it atm, still got lots of mods to do, so SC will be last things on my list, Plus living in N. Yorks dont help either, 4 or 5 hours drive to TDI, then same amount of time to get home, too much driving for my liking, hehe... but 1 day i will get it done on my IS200 too, finger cross... :P

[tdiplc]

i deal in HP whats the kw equivalent ????

The mutiplication factor for kw to hp is 1.34, so 102 kw is 136.7hp.

I agree, the supercharger conversion is truly outstanding. A pat on the back to TTE :)

[Maz]

So why dont TDI have a Branch some where in Yorkshire, hehehe................like in Leeds, Lol, if you do, i get the TTE for my Is200 then, hehe, and im not joking either, N.Yorkshire is very lucking on good Tuner like TDI.... since there isnt any in the Leeds area, and i have spoke to alots of people who wish there is, now may be this is a good business to have a branch in Leeds area? hehehe :D :D :D

Yorskire isn't far. The furthest we had a car delivered from was Hong Kong, and main land Europe jobs arrive regularly.

Come on, don't be lazy!!

Ask anyone that has had a supercharger system fitted - you will never want to drive a standard is200 again.

[DaveEllen]

i agree ......... just had a day in a loan car 570 mile IS200 auto........aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh nothing there

[DUNCAN]

Was thinking of adding a supercharger to mine.

I it really worth three grand for that extra power increase?

Also, does it affect your insurance in a big way?

[ALTEZZA S]

Dave:

How much power did u gain on the induction kit?

How am i gonna get it? I'm from Brisbane?

Tdiplc:

Did anyone tired to upgrade the crank pulley? whats the size should i get?

also what ECU system should i use? can i use Uni-chip? if i upgrade the pulley what should i do with the fuel system? more injectors?

[yoshi]

HKS have modded an IS200 to 600bhp.

I understand it has bored engine to 2.3L and turbo-charger.

Also, the Jap IS200 (Altezza) comes with F1 shift and 210bhp, compared to UK 150bhp (limp).

If you need a Jap to English conversion, try Translingo software.

I would like to know how long it takes you to make the installation and if you can ship the parts to France or if it has to be installed by yourself

TTE makes it in a day, but you must have it installed at there office, they don't ship it :(

I think you live near Paris, you can buy a supercharger here in Belgium for 5700€+VAT or 7500€+VAT fitted.

Take a look at Kempower

Good luck to find one :)

[yemgi]

thanks tof,

but TTE takes 6596€ for the kit + fitment

but this is definitely an interesting shop that can be interesting as I can pick items directly from them and don't need shipping :)

[tof]

You can also install it in Switzerland for 5697€ (8490 SFR) fitted and VAT included.

The link : Bemani motor

I read somewhere that they made the compressor for TTE.

205 HP and 247Nm it's the same than TTE compressor. :P

More than 300 IS200 compressed by Bemani

[Dumbass]

:( :( :(

jus get so sad listening to all you S/C people talkin about it..

i desperatley want more power from my car... you cant imagine how much i prefer power mods over "good looks" mods... but as my previous car was 220bhp Escort RS Turbo, spending £2000+ for a S/C would be madness, considering the thrill id get from the lexus wdnt even touch that of my escort.. (and at a tiny fraction of the cost)

oh how i miss those days of slaughtering (allmost) everything else on the road!!

[Veece]

Know how you feel Dumbass. Last car was an M3 Evo with 321bhp.

Love the Lex but could do with a few more horsies under the bonnet without having to shell out for them.

May have to go back to a performance car next year - It takes some getting used to being left at the lights when your used to pulling away with a smile on your face.

Love everything about the Lex - just miss that feeling of knowing that the power is there when you want to unleash it.

We take 1.5 to 2 days to fit the system. I heard that TTE use 2 guys to do it quicker but I don't know if that is true.

We can ship it directly to France with English instructions

Mark :)

[Dumbass]

Hmm.... i should hate you veece!!

< EVERTON MAN!! :P :P

quoting you - "It takes some getting used to being left at the lights when your used to pulling away with a smile on your face."

Sooooo damn true ...... i find it realy painfull!!! :( and its taken the fun out of my driving!! but still luv the IS200 tho.

[Monster-Mat]

Mark TTE use 1 guy.

the superchargers are made by ETON, the TTE supercharger unit (twin rotor roots type blower) is the same unit with different pully as fitted to the mercedes benz cars

Oh OK, Tony told me that TTE had 2 guys on it when they fitted his kit.

The supercharger is made by Eaton which is a subsidiary of Ford, who sell them to Mercedes and whoever else

Mark :)

[Monster-Mat]

ok...

they use 2 guys for the bumper removal, and the clutch bleeding

cannot see how tony remembers he spent the day stuffing his face in the restaurant

Yes Mat knows - listen to him ... 1 chap did most of it but another on hand to help.

That steak was particularly yummy :P
