i highly doubt i would be able to give you as detailed a review you guys want. not even close.

nothing more than "yes it goes faster and gas sucks butt"

but i would have some numbers to flaunt.

I would say for everyone wanting dynos from the guy. If you all chipped in and paypaled him for the dyno run, I am sure he would come up with numbers real fast. Other than that, ou cant expect him to be the guinea pig and front the entire bill for you.

Hey guys I called the place on friday about getting it done this weekend and the guy in charge of dynos was not there and I was told to call back. I called back got no answer. I was busy all day Sat and today I called multiple times and got no answer but I left a message. But I did try and hopefully they will return my phone call.

Well guys I am like everyone else here just waiting on some numbers but I have a question while I wait. My car is completely stock minus interior upgrades such as audio and video, I have around 25k miles on my '05 FM tC would it be a good idea to get the TRD charger with this many miles on it. I plan to keep this car for a while, oh until it dies then new motor more than likely. Still owe like 15k on it though but I love the car to death. Would love the power but at the price of 3500+ is REAL steep.

i know a guy who supercharged his USED corolla with 46000+ miles on it.

also it comes with a warranty so youll be okay, and you still have like 40000 miles on yours so i wouldnt worry to much. PLUS TRD made this thing to be reliable, so i wouldnt worry about it, by the time i get mine, i will have like 10k miles

kcautotc... I think I would be find I make like 3200 to 3500 in about two months. Like I said just alittle worried about the whole 25000 miles on the car before I even get the charger out on it. Cause the last thing I want to do is drop a tranny.

yeah if you have toyota put the trd sc in...no matter how much miles you got on the tranny...as long as they instal it and the tranny goes you get new one under warrenty unless they can rebuild it.

I was at the dealership today (trading in my IIP for a SW M/T) and i was told this is NOT true.

The finance manager said that they do not warrant the supercharger, it completely voids your warranty.

I explained to him that one of the selling points of the S/C was that it takes on the warranty of the car as long as toyota does the install. He asured me that I was mis informed. Saying "maybe TRD gives you a warranty, but not us."

i dont know what to believe here, I'm starting to think that the "warranty" we're talking about is just TRD warranting the supercharger for whats left of the cars warranty, at the same time, the cars warranty gets voided.

I was told this as i was purchasing my 7 year platinum extended warranty.

Someone please prove me (or that finance manager) wrong!

i know that when TRD says they have a five year warranty... it means that TRD warrants the part and not toyota..therefore it CAN mess with the toyota warranty..


BUT, i thought, and am almost 100% sure that toyota backs the s/c with its warranty plus TRD's warranty IF you have it installed from a dealer
