Default Good news for 2007 VQ owners....FI exists

I was flipping thru the October 2007 issue of Options Magazine and saw that....get this....TRIAL makes a supercharger for the HR motor....it's a roots type unit that works with the dual throttle bodies.....just hope this makes some of you happy!!!

Trial is some hard stuff to source though...Who knows if it will be compatible with the USDM Zs too. I'm waiting to see a turbocharger kit!

Trial makes some nice stuff...came across them when i used to drive a Celica. Unless I'm mistaken, I thought they setup a shop somewhere in Arizona...??

EDIT:

here's the Trial USA link for the Z33
http://www.trialusa.net/z33/index.htm

Although the s/c isn't shown, i'm sure they could get it for you.

Probably because they haven't quite been able to hack into the newer ECU with the SS box?

I think the harness and pin locations are a bit different, but someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Without seeing it to be sure, I think this is actually the second kit for the HR. Ricoh had one back in April, designed primarily for the G35 sedan.

Ok, that's what I was wondering, if it was the same one because I hadn't seen the article.
