The one from TRDSparks comes with everything, and I mean everything for the S/C. Even the ECU. I know because I have the kit sitting in my room waiting for install. If you have an automatic, you will need the fit kit. The S/C comes with the updated version of the bracket already...

Bcuz i poor and I work full time and am a single father with no free time.

it'd be interesting to see a different design on the market, and how it compares to the TRD. I would expect more power.

A roots would be the only one worth pursuing... if you can cram it in there with our intake manifold layout.. that would probably be the biggest trick.

I'd like to see someone adapt a Vortech powercooler to this kit, I emailed Vortech about it and they never responded to me. Even a simple no would have been nice.
