I see you have the protective cap on your pulley bolt. I guess the dealer put yours in for you correct? I did my own install and I didn't even think about putting that little grey plastic cap over the bolt for the pulley . Car looks good bro.

How can you see the cap? I think the dealer might of forgotten to put mine on hahah.. i got there to pick my car up while they were test driving it.. and when they got back (per the instructions) is when they were then supposed to install the cap.. but they parked it after the test drive and then i drove it home. Can someone post a pic of their pulley with the cap on it?

Car looks good Scion-ce!! very simular to mine.. diggin the white

It's the little silver cap that goes over the top of the bolt that holds the pulley on the shaft. It's small but I see it In the first under hood shot you can see it sticking out .

Does anyone know the size of the TRD pulley. I found a size on the Vortech site. I wonder if it's the one I need for at least 3 more psi.

You will need a few special tools, but only one is really needed if you have air tools. The one for the fuel line is the most important one because without it you can't take the old line off. The rest was cake.

I don't mind the tamper-proof cap. Justy gives me something to look forward to when my warranty expires. There are other ways to make more power...like more money.

How big of a difference does the factory upgraded supercharger give you? I hear it's supposed to put it around 200 h.p. but can you really feel it? Right now my tc is bone stock, not sure if i want to blow 3 grand on a supercharger or other various upgrades.
