TRD S/C is not available!!!
I dont know why people keep talking about this all the time and start new rumors on the forums. As of right now the TRD Supercharger is not available for order in the Toyota Parts ordering system! Its not there and I gaurantee that to be a fact. Anyone who wants to say otherwise please provide me with a part # and I will take it to my parts manager to verify.
I will check with Parts Dept. again on Monday to check on the rumored Oct. 10th release date. I wouldnt get too hopeful though. Its not going to be available then either...
...Im sure you all hate me now and are gonna light me up like a dry christmas tree with faulty lights. Sorry.

Nobody I know of stated it was "out", just that the price information was release, and it is set for a October release. But the scion things I've seen say Quarter 4 release. trdsparks released the price at $2950 and a pdf of the install instructions. Other than that there is nothing else major besides knowing its "coming" still...

exactly, there are 1500 s/c sitting in boxes waiting to be shipped out once they receive the carb label...they have passed carb standards, now they are just waiting for the labels which should be any day now. The s/c Is going to be out within the next month or so...maybe begining of November worst case scenario

Did I say it was out, NO. Did I imply anything besides just answering a question, NO.
The OP asked about a part number and I provided it.

am i mistaken or wouldn't the addition of a S/C (or a turbo for that matter) require one to use 93 octane gas? i dont know about any of you.. but i'm now broke, have no money for the S/C, can't refinance my car cuz my credit union dicked me over, and i know for a fact that i can't afford to pay for 93 octane gas at this point (it's averaging $3.50 here right now.. but i'm certain it'll be nearly 4 by december if analysts are correct)...and not to mention gas mileage would go down with the addition of a Supercharger or turbo? just a thought. correct me if i'm wrong i don't know a ton about these things but that's the impression i've been given.

Can't afford supere huh well did you realize that the higher the octane the better it will burn & the cleaner it will burn. This in turn will give you better MPG. I tried to run regular in my car once and it ran like $hit and got horrible gas mileage. Anyway my point is you are better off spending .20 cents more a gallon becasue your car will run better, cleaner, & more efficient. What's it going ot cost you? an extra $3 everytime you fill up. Thats nothing compared to the benefits. SO in effect you're still spending the same ammount.
