will my current mod are mmw header and cc magna flow exhaust and injen intake . . . .getting my s/c install monday. . . .jus wanted to know that if i still need my stock intake system, for the sc install ? ? ?2007 btw thanks
I believe you need a part of your airbox for the s/c install, if you're having the factory put it on. I don't think they'll put the supercharger in with an aftermarket intake, and they probably won't be too happy when they see the header.
EDIT: No, they won't put it on with an aftermarket intake. A CAI will make the TRD-reflashed ECU run too lean. That's why you can't have the TRD CAI if you want the factory s/c.
I hope you're running some kind of ECU management system. Your engine is probably going to blow up soon.

^^^ you need the bottom of your stock airbox. They may not install your s/c with the header pipe - but your exhaust isnt an issue.
You will loose your CAI, but you do know what a s/c does, and why the stock TRD reflash leans out right? It cannot adjust properly to the airflow so the ECU doesnt know what to do. It cannot read from 2 different points at once, and there is too much flux in the air mix.

that way the s/c intake box get eliminated
