    do I need to build the transmission, rear end, drive shaft? Because the supercharger voids the warranty

    IIRC if you install it 12mo/12k warranty. If Toyota installs your warranty remains the same? Man I would like to install one but maybe save the go fast $$ for a 335 or 5.0 stang?

    I bet the spacers and chips u have are more dangerous than the blower.


    Btw how does your JDM chip work along with the jet chip?

    I was reading the installation instructions for the SC and noticed one CON right off the bat, page one 2nd column. You need to re-flash the ECU when the SC is installed, but according to the install instructions the re-flashing cannot be undone. In other words, once you install the SC, it has to stay on or you have to get a new ECU! That is kind of a bummer.
    HERE is a link to the install instructions thanks to Tim at TRD Sparks Toyota (man I wish they were my local dealership!).
    This almost makes the URD UCON that Justus mentioned in a thread worth it right off the bat, but then there is that pesky warranty thingy again :(
    Still pretty jazzed about getting the SC installed though...

    For you Keninsb, you current option are the reflash or a wire in aftermarket EMS. No UCON, since it is plug n play only and its plugs don't fit your plugs.

    No no.. I meant literally, how do they work together?

    Does 1 control the other, or are they work independently?


    And how hard were they to tune?
