Look forward to spending about $3-4k total! I'll be there in about 2 weeks if you want to test it before you buy!

Contact your local GM dealer for a price installed. Installation price will vary geographically.

I see you have a 2006. GM's supercharger is made for the '03-'04 Vibe. You would need the '05-'06 S/C custom adapter plate being offered on http://www.matrixowners.com and http://www.9thgencorolla.com in order to have the GM S/C on your Vibe. GM will not install it on the '05-'06 Vibe. You will have to install it yourself and just have the 1yr. warranty on the S/C parts only. Sorry.

And you will need a management system for A/F mixture etc. Greddy E-Manage, Camcon etc.

ok! im crying now hahah well i ordered a K&N Typhoon cai... should be here wed... had some 12 volt wires caped today, and my sirius satalite radio hard wired.... going to put some red underdash led's in tomorow.. i guess this is what i get for having a 06 huh?? i need to upgrade my engine to handle the extra hp from a supercharger anyway.. so i have to hold off anyway.. maybe by that time they will have one for the 06

BlueCrush · Post by **BlueCrush** » Wed Jun 14, 2006 1:26 pm

They won't be making one for the '06 Vibe but you can use the '03-'04 S/C with the adapter plate mentioned above and there is no need to upgrade the engine with the S/C.

I stopped into the dealer and asked for a price and they couldn't even quote me a price. pissed me off. he thought 3 grand just for the supercharger. even with my GM discount that would be pricey if its just for the charger. might have to look at TRD's

TRD is a LOT cheaper, but I don't know about their install fees.

northvibe · Post by **northvibe** » Thu Jun 22, 2006 11:43 am

cheapest i found a TRD is like 2450 for the kit. Install could be done by your self but if you want the "warranty" which only applies to the SC then get it installed at a dealership which i dunno what they charge to install.

Especially if it says TRD on the s/c!I took mine in once to get checked out and right after I told them it was s/c'ed, they said that they might not be able to help me cause they don't normally work on s/c'ed engines. Never trust the dealership for anything any more. They always give me a hard time cause I 'messed' with the car, or they tell me it's a toyota and I should have them look at it. Then at the Toyota dealership they argued with me saying that their instraments wont plug into my car because it's a Pontiac. Screw the dealership and do it your self! It's not that hard at all. Cheaper and more fun. Once it's done and running good you'll feel closer to your car.

northvibe · Post by **northvibe** » Mon Jun 26, 2006 9:32 am

yea im going to do like what lancer did, get a TRD SC and install my self. I have some mechanic friends and hopefully ill have a job to pay someone if it comes down to it. but waiting 2 yrs blows!!

Pontiac said they didn't have the right tools to test or work on it, and Toyota said they couldn't work on it b/c I was warrantied through GM and it would all be out of pocket!
