how long did it take to install? any boost spiking? well now its on and your enjoying it, not only do you get the added tq and hp but you get the added bonus of watching that fuel guage drop even faster

I should be putting out around 200hp... Im not sure because of the intake?
It took about 2 1/2 to get the supercharger in, then another 2 hours for the ECU. The engine "whines" so loud, its sweet. You can hear it from like 3 blocks away. Its an Eaton 45 supercharger... close to a roots style. My friend still has my install pics, I'll get them up as soon as he gives them to me.[sm=smiley4.gif]

I was f'in around with my stang buddies after the install... I kept it under 5-grand (because of minor detination) and kept within 1/2 car length of one of my friends 302's. (just BBK cold air kit, BBK headers, Magna-flow exhaust)... If I hammered on it and shifted at redline, I might be able to take him... we'll see after I tune it a little.

Nice. Hey Polo, ive been trying to figure out why trd doesnt offer a blower for the 01 corolla. its the same engine right? My wife wants the supercharger for hers, but i cant find out why its not offered. and if its a cosmetic reason, like i have to "massage" one of the walls of the engine bay out with a hammer, ill do it no problem. but i dont know if they maybe changed the intake plenum or something. any info would be great.

its got the 1zz-fe engine right... the only problem is the hood clearance. If you had a custom hood or no hood at all, it would be fine. You would need the S/C kit only (not the TRD ECU...) then you will need an aftermarket chip to go with it. The ECU that TRD makes has a different fuel mapping than your 01 would take.
