Best price for TRD Supercharger, and is it worth it?
I did the deckplate mod, and now I am hungry for power. Where is the best place to get thr TRD one, price wise? Is it absolutely necessary to install a transmission cooler? I only need this to gun it once in a while, not to tow or offroad.
Is the SC worth it?????

Plamar,
Just use the cheap route that most of us use- buy about 8 bucks worth of plumbing end caps of the right size and you're done. Not as pretty as a straight pipe, but you'll still get the same effect.

Muffler shop
If you go to any decent muffler shop (try one with at least 5 garages) they'll have 2.5" exhaust tips on hand. They should have an expander too. All I did was show them what I was doing and they had he first fit pipe out in 2 minutes. Had to expand it 2 more times to get a nice and snug fit. I went to an industrial powder coating place and got it powder coated for free. Total cost: $15 for the exhaust tip. Not that much of a hassle. My biggest problem was finding a place that would powder coat. I'd say the s/c is worth it. Go for it. Find one online or if you know somebody like me that gets a 25% discount on all Toyota parts and labor, get it through him/her!

Whoops
Well I meant if you KNOW someone, like I do. Shoulda been more clear on that one. I don't get the discounts, the guy I know does. He's a Landcruiser nut, and has a huge car collection. I wish it was me... hehe

It's the best mod so far. How does 50 HP and 53 TQ at the wheels sound? For a tranny cooler just buy a B&M and make a couple of brackets. The TRD cooler is way over priced. I bought my supercharger online for $1999 back in March. I don't remember the site, but I think it was a Toyota dealer in San Diego.
