Question LS 430 supercharger(?)

Howdy.

I have a 91 LS400 with 97,000 miles (used to be wife's grandma's car) and it runs like a dream. 13 years old and it's smoother than most new cars.

My wife would LOVE for us to get another Lexus, ideally an LS430, but I'm kind of an acceleration junkie and the LS430 0-60 of 6.4secs is a bit too slow for me. I'd like to get it down to 5.5secs or thereabouts.

Anyone know of a REPUTABLE supercharger manufacturer for the LS430? I'd rather not go turbo - bit too twitchy.

Thanks!

6.4 secs to 100km for a full sized sedan is pretty quick IMO.....
