Yea but don't they usually have them hard piped into the car? A whole halon system looks like it can get pretty complicated. What are the chances of him having 2 fires? Thats what insurance is for anyway, accidents will happen.

you need to read this thread.. People are having problems with the superchargers and are battling with trd and scion to give them their warranty for it and replace the superchargers.

This sale looks like it will last until Mid January, FYI

Look around. I encourage you to! See what others are offering for the $$ and you will see in the end, we are the best deal around.
