TTE Supercharger
TTE Supercharger
Hi guys,
I've installed TTE supercharger a week ago (will upload some pictures later if anyone interested ) and now wondering what is the next (safe) move of getting more bhp and torque? Pulley upgrade? Injectors? If so could anyone recommend what size/ brand etc is the best. Any links would be appreciated. Thx a lot for info.

Pulley upgrade is the next step really, more boost.
There is mixed reviews on the injectors etc, but I think a slightly modified black box is ok to work with a bigger pulley
The standard size is 130mm. Next step up is either 145mm or 160mm normally
I would say if you went for a bigger pulley you should go for bigger injectors ,Upgraded fuel pump and get it mapped.
Thanks Moley for a reply. Sorry for stupid questions but do I need to go for a remap after fitting TTE supercharger or its only necessary after doing some other 'modifications' like bigger injectors, fuel pump etc. As I am not a mechanic and just recently started to play with my lexus from scratches could anyone tell me what are those things you call piggy black box? tte black box etc.? What these particularly does? For example when I bought a supercharger kit a guy gave me a 'black box' but I have no idea what it does actually? Might be to many questions but I also bought a strut brace to fit but only after buying it I realised that I can't fit it in because my supercharger hose sits right on the way needed for strut brace. Sorry for random questions and will understand if you guys just ignore it because its pretty basic but I thought I will take a chance Thanks for any info at all.

The best answer is to go stand alone, but that will cost you lots of money which would be better spent on buying an IS300. Black box info here
Strut braces are **** on the IS200 anyway, they make absolutely no discernible difference to the handling of the car. Upgrade the anti-roll bars instead; best mod you can do to them, followed closely by a good set of tyres and some properly set up coilovers. You will be able to carry a silly amount of speed round country lanes once you remove the body roll from an IS200 and the break-away of the back end becomes incredibly predictable, it really is a fantastic chassis.
