Supercharger got here today. It sure comes in a smaller box than I thought. Haven't opened it yet. I think I'll make that a special occasion.
I'm going to put another 1800 miles on the S (for a total of 3500) before breaking out the tools. I may set the box in the trunk and see how much boost that gives! This is the most I've been jazzed about a car project in many years. The last time was when I installed the Superchip in a Vette. This is a little bigger project don't you think? This will be my second car with a supercharger. I had a T-Bird SuperCoupe. Have owned a couple of turbo'd vehicles. These are exciting times!

When I ordered, I asked Comptech. "Is the box small enough to fit in my trunk so I can take it to the dealership, or should I have it delivered there?" They told me it was small enough...wrong. I had trouble just driving it from the apartment office to my apartment, I was so sure it was going to fall out. So, like voodoo said, you'll have to take it all out to fit it in the trunk. Just an FYI for everyone out there who uses the Stook as their daily racer, I mean driver.

I hope I didn't waste my money!Just kidding. I'm sure you gave him/her that many lengths to make it a fair race.

Ask your local dealer if you can borrow the tool. I told mine I am planning a SC install, and the guy offered to lend it to me without hesitation. (I'll have Modacar install it... I can only handle paper...)
It doesn't hurt to ask.
