Comptech Supercharger Kit Groupbuy: TL 04+, CL/TL
#82
Well I spoke to Comptech today. They tell me that they had a batch of superchargers come in today and that I might get 1-2 kits for the 04+ TL, which means Brett you will get one and also another member if I get two. They also assured me the TSX charger will go out this week too. So that is where we stand. To try and keep ahead of my orders I have ordered extra chargers to keep in stock.

What day should the TSX supercharger be shipping? Do you know if the TSX supercharger kit will include the Denso IK24 spark plugs? Thanks.

againstallodds....do you know how fast your car goes 0-60?? And is the SC worth getting on an automatic? I have the same car (minus the mods u have) and am wondering if the SC is worth it.

Josh this is Dominic I spoke with you this past wednesday on the phone. You mentioned you should be receiving some short shifters this week. If you do I'll be down this upcoming saturday to pick one up along with a UR pulley and have you order an AEM intake for me. I'll give you a buzz early this week for more info, thanks.

I am extremely disappointed in Comptech for the wait on the charger. Its been about 10 weeks that I have been waiting now. I understand when you have to have things outsourced and have to wait for parts. I know it does not take 5 weeks to make 17 pullies( 17 is the amount of chargers on back order). Once again I will reiderate that this is not Excelerates fault but comptechs. I think they have been slacking on fullfilling the orders of these chargers. It looks to me that they put these orders on the back burner and prioritized somthing else and just recently got moving on it. I can understand waiting a month for a part like this but 10 f_cking weeks. Not only have they not delivered but they havent even given excelerate any legit info as to when he is getting the chargers. Thats what really gets me pissed. I have to say that excelerate has been great in trying to help with the situation but there is nothing he can do.

Also, Brett, it hasn't been 10 weeks yet; you paid on 4/26/06. So its been about 7-8 weeks. It has been a while though, but I believe Comptech is finally catching up. Thanks for your patience guys!! And I will work on expediting shipment on all your chargers as quickly as I receive them.
let me know about the short throw i like the feel of it it'a must have now

Wow! Those are some impressive numbers. How do you think your tranny will hold up under all the added ponies? Also - You have an 05' TL - I guess your warranty is over, huh? Who did all of your installs? I'm in S. Jersey too.

Nice, you are the man! If possible can you please relay the tracking numbers for everything to me. I would appreiciate it. If im not home when the package is delivered, UPS wont come back and it gets sent back to the sender. Not cool!
thanks

Oh no - Comptech had to have all of the chargers called back from UPS due to a defect in the pulleys. The company that makes the pulleys has to re-tool now and it may need until christmas to get the problem corrected!
