Does anyone know if there are any superchargers out for the F yet? I'm getting a little bored and I need some more power. I have my sc 300 in the shop right now and its going to come out a 500whp sleeper. I know once I start driving that I'm going to need some more power in the F. Thanks for any info.

There is a turbo kit out there for the F, but from what i've been hearing and seeing, it's hype. There are a few youtube vids out there but if you pay attention to the dashboard in some of the vids, the speedo cluster looks like a blinking Christmas tree. Not a good indicator in my opinion.

You can also enhance your appearance, change your lighting, navi control (override), and ipod connection if you wish. Talk to Clark at VIP Auto Salon. He knows what else you can add to your beast, because he's got one himself.

There really isn't much out for our cars yet. Artisan's twin turbo kit is somewhere around $15k but that is about it.

Yea I talked to someone at Artisan. I'm not paying 15 grand for 175 hp. I'd much rather buy a supercharger for much less and see the same numbers plus superchargers aren't as hard on a motor. I have two turbo cars with a lot of boost running through them. turbo cars are problem cars. They are awesome but they break a lot.

Brian Fox has said there are no check engine lights for the 11,000 miles he has has owned his turbo car. The YouTube video you are talking about is misleading until you look at what lights are on. Look at this screen grab. He has it in sport mode, has VSC and Traction Control turned off and the only check engine light he has is from no TPMS in his after market wheels.

The vehicle Brian Fox has is a pre production IS F which was a SEMA project car for last year. I've seen and heard the car startup when Brian demonstrated it for us in Las Vegas last year. I'd like to see the results of other owners who have this kit on a regular production IS F.
