Yea M90 fits the 4l Jag V8 - and the Soarer V8 with a LOT of fabrication.
For the Soarer your better off finding a Chaser with a blower and importing that - swapping over the charger and all the bits, selling the Chaser with your N/A bits put on it - total cost should be less then a few grand............ Or buy GT-T and there you go.

Actually Phil you're better off buying a bolt on kit for the TVS1900 from bulletcars. It's $6500 AUD (ish) and fits directly to a V8 soarer with no modifications, much larger than an M90 but also much more efficient and good for full boost from just over idle all the way up to the red line.

Edit: See HERE there is also a bolt on kit for an M90

The M90 is on the older jags, they have replaced them with TVS units since the mid 2000's.

I'll be getting a soarer in the next 6 months, so it's possible. I'm going to need something to drive while the IS is in the shop anyway (which it will be in the next year).

If you want a quick one get the GT-T 1JZ GTE version the V8 is a cruiser and is not that fast (for a V8). However you can't fault the way these things are bolted together - made to last for sure.

I wonder why he didn't put a shorter snout on and move the charger further forward.
