how does the oil cooler work, is there a fitting between the oil filter and where it screws into that gives you those 2 lines that go to and from the radiator?

I haven't measured 0-60 yet. But the improvement in acceleration and throttle response is immense. With JR tune, the engine is so much smoother in the full rpm range even at idle. There is no torque dip whatsoever and power constantly increases linearly upto redline. The car is totally transformed into an upper-class sports car. The power increase did not overwhelm the car; handling, braking, everything else are still great. I didn't want to do any other performance mod before JRSC and I don't think I will do anything else after this. I was thinking about installing a catback to add some rumble since all sound generator parts were being removed. But the supercharger whoosh is so good, I don't want any rumble anymore.

Yeah it has a sandwich adapter like pretty much every other setup

Wish it was that easy here, midwest not so good on the fresh fish. Grew up in Hawaii so ate poke all the time, miss it so much.

I'm waiting to do a supercharger upgrade but I'm held back by multiple factors like student debt, getting married, not to mention saving up for the actual kit. By my estimates, I'll be able to afford one right when my warranty expires. Reading about your experience makes the wait so much harder!

Bummer. Poke shops are popping up everywhere here now in nor cal, and I'm ok with that.

OK I see it. Like the chrome better too the satin looks like plain grey. I will probably go with black chrome on my halo 86

I think you set the priorities absolutely right. Just do the right way and feel great about it. Supercharger is something fancy to have when you are ready. Good luck!
