ok, some of you may of noticed that a couple of days ago a supercharger kit went up for sale in the classifieds. well since i had missed out on the last kit that went up for sale, and considering the fact that im just too broke to afford an of the shelf kit from aussie land, i couldn't just let that deal walk by. soon i will be part of an elite group of owners of supercharged sc400's. I'm so pumped. will have pictures of the unboxing of parts and (if i can get away with it) will have the supercharger installed before the end of the week. *fingers crossed* also i will have more pictures of the car as soon as i wash it.

I would consider head gaskets the lower compression and if you can afford pistons to lower compression! 1UZ can make some good numbers with FI lower compression

Thanks Axmily, I'm really excited. Though I think a couple of things are changing.

Maynanator, I cannot wait to see what this will do. I am kind of kicking myself for selling this kit, but things have changed for me and I have moved on. I think it has gone to a good home. Has it arrived yet?

Good news: supercharger made it safe and sound.

Bad news: I'm fairly sure that I won't be able to bolt it on this week, hopefully I can just get all the stuff off the engine for now.

Well, It's official the UPS man has dropped off the supercharger. On it's way in as soon as I can tear everything apart. my only qualm with the kit is the fit of the intake adapter... it kind of ruins everything. oh well looks like i'll be putting on a cobra throttle body somewhere down the line. now to put this info in the thread that really matters: my build thread.
If you have time, I'd appreciate some pictures. Especially of the adapter.
