Power Enterprise Supercharger JUST RELEASED! - Page 5 - Toyota Yaris Forums

PETERPOOP · 01-22-2009, 10:33 PM

trust me, i know what you mean. I put a 6" lift on my brand new truck 6 months after i got it. And voided the yaris warranty within 6 months too. however, i trusted the quality of the items being put on that would void my warranty. there are a lot of questions about this kit still...

cali yaris · 01-23-2009, 12:00 AM

They should install one on a USDM car, drive the snot out of it and report the results. Before/after dyno, compression, plug condition, etc. at 100, 1000, and 5000 miles.

THAT would get people on board. But hey - that's easy for me to say from the comfort of my office chair.

jmew0ng · 01-26-2009, 02:02 PM

Is it me or does that engine cover look like the one for the TS

PETERPOOP · 01-25-2009, 06:20 PM

Oh man , I'm all over this , but Imo for $3700 the kit better include every last nut bolt and gasket to install this on my car with-out having to run to the auto parts store for random nuts/bolts/gasket or worse be in the middle of the install only to find a missing gasket or something missing from the kit that would need to be sourced/time-out for shipping and leaving my daily driver down for weeks, that my only big concern with the kit .

PETERPOOP · 01-25-2009, 07:07 PM

i know what you mean. too many bad luck stories with the blitz kit already. this kit has already shown problems to the guys who own it in the US. maybe the US version is better. it does have the warranty. however, like you said, does it come with everything? this guy who is repping this company sure isn't active on here enough for my liking. we need a guinea pig for this kit...

PHXDEMON · 01-25-2009, 08:30 PM

I would be in if I could afford this kit.

whooppee777 · 01-26-2009, 01:10 AM

with one month left before i pay off the blitz supercharger i wonder if i should have waited for this kit or another kit by someone else.

but then i remember that the blitz kit has been out for awhile with only minor hassles with installation and virtually no issues once PROPERLY installed.

i'll stick with the blitz supercharger.

but someone else should get some ballz and just buy this thing.

Chupacabra · 01-26-2009, 12:23 PM

Appears to be a nice unit but the price is really pushing me away from this. That's a lot of money for 50HP IMO.

Jerkratt · 01-26-2009, 01:58 PM

working on a few other things first... but u can bet if i decide to go non turbo ill go head to head with u whooppee... u know we have been battling since day one.. =)

BTW u staying over for streetwars 5?

cali yaris · 01-26-2009, 02:11 PM

Like I said, without a car out there where it was just bolted on and hammered for 5000 miles, it's hard to say that it will be problem-free. saplaymate seems to be our test subject, his seems to work fine.

NO, there has been no changes...its like this,

PE USA wasnt allowed to sell or support the Rotrex kit, this is directly from Rotrex.

We are not going to jeopardize our relationship with Rotrex just because someone wanted to be creative and buy one from Japan...

thats the risk you take...you want something bad enough, most will go to extremes to get it, but in the end you pay the price of reading instructions in japanese, and having no support in the US...

Power Enterprise Evan · 01-26-2009, 03:34 PM

you guys talk about working on cars like its putting on your clothes....just look at the kit.... really how many parts are there?? now look at your car...does it look like the VG30 engine bay???

NOOO there is plenty of room to work with....

GET GOING!!!

jinxor · 01-26-2009, 09:56 PM

This is looking more like a fight now

PE, is it possible to get a link to the 500+ kits photos/reviews/pictures. I would be interested in this kit but just saying that the kit is orsm wouldnt encourage me to spend 4k on a SC.
I hope you understand the point. What would you do if you were in the same position

Chupacabra · 01-26-2009, 10:12 PM

still a LOT of money for 50HP. What I don't understand is though....why not do a DIY write-up on an installation and get a few to YW members for a discounted price to provide real life feedback for US people? That's the only way that somebody is going to spend 1/3 of what the car costs for a supercharger that adds 50ponies.

Especially on mine, since I'm running on 84HP. Can't even imagine it!

But I live far, can't order, will not have support, prolly f$ck up on installation.
