. I just don't have that much cash just lying around (don't really want to put it on credit either). If some money falls into my lap, then it might be a reality for me. In the mean time

. I always want what I can't have.

If money is falling into your lap you probably took up stripping

If I remember correctly the Scion TC SC was like $2,500.
What I would really like to know is if Subaru will cover any warranty work if you put this on a BRZ.

I'm not sure how Subaru is planning on getting any power out of the STI version without FI because this kit will take sales away from that car.

Lol by the time I even get to install that thing, I think my warranty would be over.

INSTALLED? You're looking at $6-8k If I had to guess. We charged close to $10k installed for the TRD S/C for the Tundra and Sequoia. There were a lot of labor hours required to do it. Not worth it just to keep the stupid warranty, if you ask me.

I would pay 6k at most installed by dealer top keep warranty. Anything more than that, I'll have to pass.

Ill remove the GAP and extended warranty and have them install the supercharger in exchange and keep the regular warranty on there, IF THATS EVEN POSSIBLE

I nearly blew coffee out of my nose.

I don't think that anyone wants to see that. I would have to shed a few lbs to make that a viable option.

My man-whoring days are long gone along with my six pack.

I would pay around $4000-4500 installed just to keep the warranty and get the much needed extra power. If they charge more than this .... the cost of the SC will be almost 25-35% the entire cost of the car.

WolfsFang · 11-03-2012, 09:28 PM

it depends on how much power it adds.

sf86 · 11-03-2012, 09:50 PM

I voted for 3k-4k but I am hoping its a little less since I don't have much to waste. have to start saving up my money from today ( 11/3/2012)

) I also want to see the real world result before I can make my decision.

This, and if it'll still be covered on a BRZ.
