    Just got the call from the dealtership that my Taco will be ready at 4:00...TRD supercharger, CAI, and exhaust installed and ready to roll!!! No mention of the "can't do a CAI & supercharger" so I think I'm good-to-go. Very excited! Pics to follow as soon as I can! :headbang:

    Question for you supercharged guys...the dealer says I need to run full synthetic oil now that I have the S/C...do you guys? I know I need to run premium fuel but never heard about synchetic oil. THANKS!

    Synthetic oil is a small cost, compared to the alternative.

    Guys...I'm not opposed to running synthetic and do understand the benefits versus conventional oil. I was just wondering whether my dealership was trying to get $85.00/oil change or whether this was common among S/C brethren.

    I know you live in NH, but you should consider changing your own oil at those prices. $25 and a half hour gets me done.

    I am planning on changing my own oil. I was due for an oil change and had the dealer do it while they had my truck. Definitely not gonna be shelling out $85.00 everytime!
