I recently purchased a Lexus IS200 (pics to follow) and one thing ive noticed, its a bit on the slow side of life.
Now I know the lexus is very comfortable smooth reliable and everything I want in a car, just a bit more grunt would be amazing!
Ive read up and seems to be superchargers are very hard to come by and there is a turbo kit for about 2k on eBay.
My question is:
Which one is better? Ive had a turbo charged car before and loved it, however the supercharger noise is amazing.
What else would need to be changed? I know the ECU is a thinking ECU and you cant remap them?? So if fitting a supercharger/turbo what can I do reference ECU or will it do it itself??
Sorry if seems stupid, new to lexus ownership etc.
