The gas prices the way they are, who would want to spend 3.50 on super on a car that still won't break 0-60 under 5 and still won't make a good lap car. Want a sports car, buy a sports car. The TC doesn't handle like one, take it to the track you'll see... why start off with something so raw.

not to beat a dead horse but...
Not to beat a dead horse but... As OF Sept. 14th 2005 I called TRD @ 4:57pm EST and talked to the rep on the phone. I then inquired about the TRD supercharger for the tC and had told him of the Email i recieved from them about 2 months ago in reply to my original inquiry about the S/C to which they replied ETA is Sept. Well the gentlemen on the phone from TRD said that he had just finished installing one a day ago and that the S/C will indeed be released before the end of the month (sept.) I then proceeded to ask him how much power does it add if he knew and he replied that he didnt have concrete numbers but that his butt o meter was saying that a substantial amount of increase in power was produced and I then asked him if he knew the amount of boost that would be produced from the system to which he replied that he hadnt had a boost meter/guage hooked up but that the system runs between 5 and 7psi of boost. my final question was for a part number if they had one avalible to which he answered that he hadnt had one quite yet, but to check back in a couple of weeks. For all those who doubt my story .. here is the Phone number that you may call yourself to satisfy your curiousity. (800) 688-5912
