Default TRD Supercharger & Injen intake

I have an Injen cold air intake and I was wondering:

a.) Will the TRD Supercharger install with the Injen?
b.) If so, will Toyota still install the Supercharger for me?

Thanks!

you NEED to cut any intake besides the weapon r specified intake. toyota will take off the intake to install the s/c

my dealer cut the cai for me. they shouldn't charge any extra because it saves them from having to move the battery and fuse box to fit the larger trd breather box. They did scratch my cai up and break the mount inside the finder trying to fit it. (FITMENT IS A _____)

I think that there's a threat of running a little lean with the modded injen cai, but I haven't had any problems so far.

One thing to expect is that you will loose that cool wooosh sound when you pump the gas at idle. I was sad to see it go, but the s/c whine makes up for it. enjoy

yeah i kinda figured they might act different if somthing went wrong. Atleast on my invoice says they modified cai. So they cant say nothing there.

Would it matter if I converted to a short ram or would it still need fabrication? I was thinking of doing that anyways...

i dont think its that great of an idea to use a CAI for the supercharger.. because the pipe is so long the supercharger has to work awfully hard.. i say just get the W-R short ram or go to your local kragen/autozone and get the spectre DIY intake
