Guess who's Boosted,Baby.

Post by kevera »

Look what showed up today.I've waited a long time for this.I am hopefully going to install it on Sunday.I'm very excited.I got a killer deal.I want to thank Bluecrush for helping me get an awesome deal on this kit.He went out of his way to help me get this,so here's a big Thanks Buddy.Everytime I mash the pedal,I will think of you,awr,awr,awr.Now,I guess I will need a Boost gauge and get the unichip figured out.Now after all the work I've done.I will be finished.ahahaha.We'll see.

Awesome! Glad you got it ok. And before anyone else asks, there was only one S/C available from this particular Pontiac dealer. No more. Sorry.

With the help of an adapter kit, could you mount that on top of your LT1, then mount them both in your Vibe?

Are you going to run it with the TRD ECU or the Unichip?Also, you will need these other parts for your installation:-NGK BKR6EIX plugs-Permatex Copper Spray-a-gasket-Fuel line disconnect tool (light blue one)http://i7.ebayimg.com/02/i/02/f4/e6/63_ ... eplacement Coolant

I had a feeling that you were going f/i. Congrats on the supercharger! I can only imagine how exited you must be. I get excited when I even think about getting a supercharger, then I get real sad when I realize that I cant afford one.

If you don't have a CAI or SRI, I would probably go with directly into the S/C.
