Default Ordered the Supercharger today!

Got quoted from the local dealership $3440 with tax for the supercharger.. so i stumbled across Sparks Toyota and talked to Ken. Very nice guy and informative. They have alot still in stock and mine shipped out same day, anyone who's interested should order theirs from them! Ended up paying $2,982.88 shipped. Very Excited! I am taking the car down to Titan motorsports tomorrow to get a baseline dyno, so i can do a before and after install. I'm completely stock right now, stock exhaust. Don't really want a header because of the way they make the car sound, but i'll be ordering the S-Pipe and doing a dyno of that with the supercharger as well. So i know this is another pointless post until after its installed and i have pics / video. But just thought i'd share

How much have you been quoted for install? They told me it should take about 8 hours, and their rate is around $92/hr. Comes out to $736. I'm hoping after they install a few of them and know how to do it well, the install time will go down.. not sure how that works though.

We're doing installs for $380. Not sure if it's worth it to you to drive up here to Myrtle Beach, SC. Orlando is only about 6.5 hrs from here.
