Heyy i was wondering if theres anyone in the Walnut, CA/ SoCal area thats willing to make some extra cash on a weekend or something help me install my supercharger...hopefully someone thats done this before and has some knowledge on this stuff :]

 

anyone?

 

i can supervise! =)

 

fly me out and Ill do it.

 

STEALERSHIP FTW, WARRANTY FTW!

 

theres really noone??...i might have to fly out "kikcaffine" haha

 

no takers huh? i can try to help. did you gather up all the tools needed?

 

Make it to Sacramento and i'll glady help you . Other than that... uhm dont dish out too much if you decide to get it done at a dealership. Dealerships in Sacramento want 800-1k for install.

 

tempting i'd almost be wiling to go out there just to visit buyhidkit.com aka xenongarage.com and kick the ____ out of those aholes...... done venting. Its not that hard if your not that knowledgeable about cars you can get some help but its basically following the directions.

 

sonofabeoitch..that would be awsome if you could help out man...ive never installed anything like this but im sure if you tell me what to do, i could do it.

 

what happened with buyhidkit.com/xenongarage.com? haha...but ya i bought my kit used..so no directions :\

 

I agree.
For the issues that could go wrong, and the extra years of warranty, $400-$500 is perfect for the piece of mind it will give yu!

 

well the kits used so i dont think they would give me a warranty..right?

 

IM not sure on the rules on used kits, but it cant hurt to ask.

 

as long as it's installed by them they warrenty it is what i heard

 

I am not sure if this is true on used kits.

Think about it, you could install your own kit and the year warranty run out.And have an issue with it. Uninstall it, then pay $400 to have it re installed, then a month later go back and say its broken.

Wham you just saved $2000 by not having to replace it yourself.

The dealer has no way of knowing if its defective to begin with. And they arent going to rip it apart and inspect it for free and have TRD verify its in good shape.

I could be wrong tho.!!

 

very true, i'm pretty sure i'm wrong. go ask! haha doesn't hurt, the most they can say is no

 

that's why before i installed mine, i bought the bearings & new seal from kik. the bearings are alot better compared to the vortech or timken ones . the seals was a problem in many of the defective s/c units, and bearings also. i've been abusing it almost everyday and runs fine, im at 6,000 miles and counting. think the timken bearings i bought on the pulley side are slowly crapping out, but that's just me being paranoid. think i might need to make an order with kik for those.

 

So when am I flying out to california? Sounds like a plane ticket is cheaper than bringing it to toyota......

 

haha see.... and then you can bring me the other bearings i didn't get from you last time
