Not to mention the guy can't even go one sentence without botching the spelling of one word... seems like a little sketchy. I would never buy a used blower off eBay.
Also... this will not be a direct bolt up for the TL-P. Slight modifications will be needed to make it work.
the guy has 1 feedback tho man, my friend bought cams for his ITR motor 600 bucks and he hasnt got them yet! and the guy had like 15 postives,, even if it was something i wanted i probably wouldn't get it due to the fact this guy doesnt have any feedback. i wouldn't risk 1200 bucks

Pointless supercharing a FWD car... You'll only run 14s maybe high 13s with good tires on a TYPE S w/ sc and it's $4k brand new w/o installation fees. A TL-P would run a solid 14.5 with no other mods.. The GTO is only a year old and already has 3 superchargers available and an upcomming twin turbo from GReddy!

It's nice also to have that extra oomph when pushing it hard on highways or from a rolling start, where the fwd crutch isn't as much of a factor.

Wrong I ran 13.55 @ 105.9
I ran 14.1 @ 101 before the S/C.
GTO wasn't even available when I purchased my car; like many people here. Plus it is a totally different car. That's like comparing the GTO to an EVO or and EVO to the CL/TL.
EDIT: My times were on all season street tires by the way. My aftercooler, GReddy E-Manage, and new boost pulley should be here very shortly and I'll be in the 12.9-13.2 range.

I will have to disagree with that. For me it wasn't a matter of track times which Iim sure would knock the pants off of the TL-P it was the city driving that allowed me to spank competitors at will. A TL-P stood no chance (not a surprise) with the S/C and even without it the TL-P lacked much. I don't even know why the TL-P is being compared here. But anyway, it felt like I had just purchased a car with a bigger engine and I'm sorry but everyone would appreciate that feeling. I think if most had the cash they'd definitely like it and buy it. Don't knock it till you try it.

And as far as "blowing" the tranny, mine was acting up before the S/C install since it took like 9 weeks to get to me. But I had the install done anyway. If the TL-S had a solid tranny the S/C wouldn't be a question of whether to buy or not for this car. It was a beast to say the least.

Ugh... the orginal design on the tranny can't handle the stock power. But there are ways to be easier on the transmission to prevent this.
i.e., oil jet kit, large transmission cooler, high-temp ATF, limiting the amount of shifting, etc.
Owners with the S/C have not experienced any abnormal transmission failure.
