you can't use the stock spark plugs. They give you different ones in the kit. Didn't you open the box and look?

^ i meant the OP, but yeah. The kit comes with different Denso Spark Plugs. I have my box at my place, and I opened it up and saw everything. And they should come in there, UNLESS the OP got a used one...

yeah, i got mine from them too... Ken, and Jaime were awesome. But I'm pretty sure if he got the part #, he could go to any dealer and order it. It would probably be cheaper at Sparks though...

So is the supercharger a new one or a used one? Make sure there is a dealership near you that can flash your ecu for you. Not every dealership can do it. Like here in georgia there is only 1 dealership that can do it.

it came with a new ecu, see my friend had the sc, but it was only on his car for a few weeks like 200 miles and the dealer took everything off and put all the stock parts on, even a stock ecu

You need to buy the sparkplugs... TRDSparks has the parts list with item #'s i think...

Just pull them out from your friends car. Was his transmission the same as yours? Your cars mileage is about to change aswell....

Replacing the ECU is gonna give your car the same "mileage" as his had. It's a hard-coded number in the ECU that you'll be switching out with one that isn't your number.
