I'm interested in buying a complete supercharger kit for 08 Vibe with Auto. I know these come up from time to time. Located in SE USA, regards Eric

I'm going to quote Salsa Guy from this thread, because it seems relevant.

If you have an AWD/4WD 03-06 Vibe/Matrix you won't need the TB adapter and can use the TRD ECU.

For a used complete kit in good shape will run about $1.5K. An AEM FIC 6 (Piggyback) will run about $300 then Tuning will run about $200 to $300. This isn't including an adapter wiring harness for the AEM FIC 6 which is $200 but it can be hard wired if you can solder and read wiring diagrams. These things can be purchased used about 50% or less than new.

SO you found one? Awesome! That's the easy part. The install isn't that bad. The Tuning will be a pain with the O2 spoof.

I used to do tuning on Audi and VW 1.8 turbos at APR years ago, so if there is any tricks or minor things I should be aware of for tuning, that would be extremely helpful. I plan on getting the AEM box and I know I can handle tuning once I have all stuff installed.
