If you though Toyota hated you in the USA with limited engine options? They just released the Lexus LX570 with TMC supercharger (450hp) for sale.

The website says its a limited batch of 200 at 600,000AED ($164K) but seems they are selling out of them so they will bring more then the announced 200.

Yesterday I took some photos with my phone and will upload it later today.

Did they have to modify the engine to handle the additional stress on the 5.7 engine?

Honestly I haven't had the time to look more into the vehicle. I was there on Friday (which is like Sunday in the USA) as I was reserving a RC350F for the girlfriend. The the sales person was asking me why haven't I bought one yet for my company since he knows I normally buy strange things to Armor. I have a Mercedes G63 6x6 right now in my workshop, and converting a Ford F550 to 6x6.

Also I have no idea how to upload the pictures from my phone - so I will use my computer when I get home tonight.

There are some pictures on the web. At 450 they have detuned the kit substantially... no internal mods are required. I'm curious about the ECU tuning and pulley diameter on the supercharger.
