I did, the price I found was just under 4000 and that’s what I got from the dealers. 5460 was for everything, labor included. Also, I get to keep my warranty.

I noticed that a number of members had a comptech s/c added to TL's along with other similar mods that I am looking to do as well. What changes made the biggest difference in performance? Any idea of 1/4 mile time improvements with mods yet? Someone told me that the s/c was a waste but to consider other mods? I also own a 2000 Saab Viggen Convt, therefore I find that comment about the s/c to be very odd. Any advice????

My car ran a 15.6 at 91 mph stock. With all my mods (see sig) I ran a 13.12 at 107mph. That might help you out. Without nitrous I ran a 13.71 at 102mph.

$3,300 from local Acura dealer and $1000 for the install with parts, such as new battery and coolant.

All warranty is intact

Most like it, some don't. it's 4.5 lbs of boost... you'll get about 274whp. Add other mods can push up to 321whp like many here. I got it because I love the sound of the supercharger. It's definitely quicker, but it's not Torquey enough....

If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn't have gotten it. Reason being I want a C6 Corvette. But hey, it's not too expensive for a nice S/C kit + installation
