You can run the TRD supercharger without any fuel mods but yes it will run lean an WOT. This is were URD's 7th injector setup comes into play!

For if/when you want to drive! haha but honestly the pillar pod seems the best option...

I've seen that but god i gotta admit, fiberglass add-ons on a factory dash are super ugly IMO.

It's got the double din, which I actually quite like. Which is a shame really cause i'd like to do an above-radio mounting for the gauges.
