    Thanks! Well it's coming together at great expense, I'm just happy it's coming together. Then I can shift focus one of my other vehicles...much cheaper lol.

    I suppose I should probably put some pics of stuff as this progresses. Oh well.

    I've used the Edge CTS, I wasn't impressed. Didn't show everything I was hoping for. Luckily, my dad is an Edge Dealer and had one in stock so we just messed around with it.

    I don't mind it. I have it plugged in right now. My biggest complaint is that their update software doesn't jive too well with new pcs

    The cable is the most awkward part in my opinion. I got it low on the driver side windshield. Not obstructing much at all.

    By the way, for all the BRZ/FRS owners, I will be selling my GrimmSpeed Lightweight crank pulley if anyone wants it. After the supercharger install of course.

    It's a bit more peppy. You notice it when you start moving from a dead stop.

    Probably $75. Thats about half of what new costs.

    I've already provided strict instructions to @Curry to swiftly kick me in the testes if I ever start talking turbo or supercharger :shifty:

    Most I'll go with this car is Street Touring class, which would allow coilovers, bushings, full exhaust and tune and a few other minor things.

    I will humbly volunteer to "sub in" for Big Sexy if he is unavailable when you require a good 'ol teste kicking.

    Free of charge!

    I didn't feel bad about chasing her. I felt bad because it hurt having metal punched into my ding ding.
