Thats a pretty damn good kit. They even offer a powertrain warranty and back up their own supercharger with a lifetime warranty.

The dealership I traded my car to lowered the price to less than what they gave me... Almost makes me want to go in and see how low I could buy it back for.

It gets quite excessive. I hate how other countries got the TRD 86 that had all of the JDM goodies pre-installed...

I almost got TRD coilovers then I was set on Amuse coilovers before I settled on the ones I got haha! The biggest issue with TRD/Amuse is getting them rebuilt and serviced haha.

Would hate to spend that kind of money on coils and then can only get them rebuilt from japan... Or you have to buy brand new ones again. It's just horrible to even think about something like that.

They've had it since August. That's a hell of a long time for a car to sit on a lot.
Either no one wants to make the drive to where it is or people are worried about buying a used car with a supercharger.

if work doesn't get more busy soon I'm going to end up with a turbo kit and a roll cage.

And there ain't no replacement for displacement.

Uhm.. called it's called FI.

Dammit guys, stop talking about FI . Between the lack of snow and semi warm temperatures it is really hard to resist just installing the turbo now. Everyday at home it sits in a box by my computer whispering "you know you want me." All I can do is reassure it that someday it will be united with my car in glorious harmony.

The real win is even more displacement and then add FI. #thingsiwoulddoafterwinningthelottery

Yes, but often positive superchargers are considered added displacement.
