Well I searched and couldnt find it...
I have been asking and seen others ask. Does anyone have a picture of the tamper proof cap for the SC?
Nothing is covering my supercharger pulley. I had it installed at the dealer. And I dont see anything to keep me from taking it off.
I want to boost it more. But with a certain problem arising in SL I am considering leaving it as is and waiting to see if more problems happen.
So I want to know what this cap looks like so I know if I have it or not. I want to have it on so that I have no problems if I have engine problems. I am not looking to trick the dealer. I am running stock enigine except exhuast. And I might just stay that way until I see for sure its all good.
I dont think I do, but I am not mechanic.

What does everyone think? If i dont get it put in and have a problem, will the exif data from this picture prove the cap was never there? Or will they just say I removed the cap and its all my fault?
The problem is, unless I new about this site, I honestly would never know it needed the cap. So if say I wasnt on Scion Life and the engine blew tomorrow, I would show up at scion, and they would say no cap no service. But it wouldnt be my fault.

I am deffinetly considering it. If our engines do have problems that might arise, I cant be out all that money.

Well I was hoping that someone w/ a better camera than mine would post pics of the cap. I don't know whether it's a good thing or not but my dealer did put on the cap when doing the install. Here are two pics:

Yes thank you very much,. I have been asking for a month. Its good to know now. I will be going to ask for my dealer to put one on this week.
I want to turn the boost up, but I cant be worrie by will it hurt the warranty. If I have engine problems I want there to be no doubt whos fault it is.
