Power Enterprise Supercharger Kit

[frownonfun]

My Yaris has just become too much of a money pit so I've decided to cut my losses and sell the kit. I wish the best of luck to whoever buys it as I really really still wanna see what this thing can do.

$2200 shipped via UPS Ground. That's pretty cheap considering I paid close to $3500 for it but I know most of you are broke so I'm trying to be merciful.

[lilredrocket]

You have to go and sell it after I said something about it. I should have waited till I had money to say something about it.

*Kicking myself in the ass*

[frownonfun]

i doubt you're the only one without money. that's the big reason i'm selling it. we'll see what happens i guess.

[RHDVIPbB]

too bad I don't have a use for two PE kits. Now I just need to get mine installed

[PETERPOOP]

f*ck evan

:needpics:

[AdeJong 03]

also interested in pics and numbers!

[frownonfun]

it's not much to see really... it's a supercharger for a car. and as far as numbers go i'm pretty sure it should make the car go faster. though i'm not for sure. and i'm not even being sarcastic. who knows. does anyone know really? i mean i know of like one person for sure with this kit and he doesn't seem to talk about it at all. oh well.

anyway if you really want pics here is the thread with all the info... i really hate to pull this out but oh well...

oh also you'll see some injectors in the pic from that thread but it doesn't come with those. sorry.

[AdeJong 03]

so it sounds like you installed it. did it give you any problems? did it pull hard?

[frownonfun]

no i never got it put on. so it's pretty much brand new.

[AdeJong 03]

just read all the threads related to your purchase. sorry to hear man.

this would be something i wouldnt hesitate on except for the fact that there are no proven numbers in the US. I wish you luck with the sale! If you were local id love to come look at the kit in person.

[thebarber]

2200usd to canada?

[justjesus]

Gosh, I rememer this kit. I also remember thinking, "hey, they are in the same city I work in!" Actually considered beeing the test car, but the price was just a hair above my budget. From the sound of it, it's a good thing for me!
WOW. For your asking price, though, seems like a decent enough deal. Damn economy!

[eTiMaGo]

The supercharger unit itself, is badass, a well-respected brand with a high reputation, Rotrex. So physically, this kit should be really good, just sorta unproven...

[frownonfun]

2200usd to canada?


idk i take it shipping is usually more to canada right? i meant shipped in the US but if shipping to canada isn't too outrageous i'd be willing to eat some of the shipping costs. i really would like to get $2000 after paypal fees and shipping and what not.

i think the main reasons this was so hard to sell for evan was his attitude, the price, and the uncertainty of the product. and well the price is considerably lower and i'm not evan. the uncertainty, however, i can't do anything about. personally i think it'd be a good kit.

[thebarber]

have any pics of the kit?

[frownonfun]

i'll get some up... it's just most of the stuff came sealed in bags and they are still unopened.

[cali yaris]

is this the one sold with all the strings attached from PE? I remember that whole thing, it got pretty ugly on here!

[Galavoxx]

Subscribed. If I can sell off some items before you sell this, I may be interested. I'll keep you posted. I haven't read through the link you provided and I know you mentioned no injectors but what about management?

[frownonfun]

this is the one with the strings attached, yes. although i bought it sans strings. and apparently without customer service also. in hindsight i should have agreed to their terms, perhaps, and maybe they would have approached this with a little more accountability but oh well. anywho i took some pics... they seem kind of unnecessary to me as the link provides a pic with all of the parts laid out all nice and pretty and i'm not fixing to open up every single bag and lay everything out to take a picture. but a few of you requested pics so here they are...


the whole kit came packed up in the big box in the center but i've yet to get everything packed back in there the way it came

this is the instructions that came with the kit. they are in japanese. so keep that in mind. it does have black and white pics of each step and someone here at YW was even nice enough to translate the wiring section into english of which i do have a copy.

that highlighted part is the one my dealership says doesn't fit my car. anyone with an '09 should take that into consideration before buying this. then again my dealership seems full of 'tards so you might be alright.

and here are a few points of interest

-A piggyback fuel controller (pre-programed & Reprogramable) included.
-Boost pressure of 0.4kg/cm2 , no inter cooler, generates 142 whp.
-250,000RPM
-Centrifugal type, much more quieter and efficient, nearly the same power band as a turbo!!!
-Up to 98% Efficiency
-Traction Drive - NO gears, much less heat than blower type or roots type.
-YES, THE PIGGY BACK IS REPROGRAMMABLE!!
-YES, THERE ARE OPTIONS TO INCREASE BOOST!!
-YES, IT WILL BOLT RIGHT UP, IN ABOUT 4 HOURS!!! (assuming you know what your doing)
-YES, IT WILL WORK WITH A STOCK SETUP!! we setup our kits for "safety" there is much more room for Power!!

[AlexNet0]

would you take payments on this? lol like I could give you 200 a month for ten months maybe more

edit: i mean 220 for 10 months, lol

[frownonfun]

i really don't wanna do payments. another YW member asked me the same question previously. i guess i can't completely rule it out though. a last resort if nothing else.

[Galavoxx]

Any bites yet?

[frownonfun]

that's a negative.

[lilredrocket]

Just drive over to me and I will install it on your car. Then after 6 month drive back and we can put it on my car.

[ozmdd]

Very interested. Lets get together this week for a beer and discuss options.

[mrbond]

Still interested in this.

[PETERPOOP]

Very interested. Lets get together this week for a beer and discuss options.

you mean talk him down in price! :laugh:

[RHDVIPbB]

that bracket does bolt in to place. I test mounted mine and found that I had to take a drill and just make the holes slightly bigger. I really need to get mine out of storage and put on now that my son has been born.

[ozmdd]

No, I mean see the kit in-person, etc. Aren't you in DFW? If so, I'd like to check it out.

[lilredrocket]

He lives out in Odessa

[ozmdd]

Damn. Still interested. When's the next DFW GTG, lil red?

[lilredrocket]

Not sure yet we haven't started that thread yet. The next auto-x is on the 20th of sept you should bring out your Yaris leave the Miata at home

oh also you'll see some injectors in the pic from that thread but it doesn't come with those. sorry.

I'm interested, but wonder why it didn't come with the injectors tho if you got it from PE USA? What injectors will it be? Lotus Elise 2ZZ? Or any 2ZZ injectors? Can you double check what's missing according to your instruction? I'm so interested and I got money on hand, ppl here knows about it, hahahahahahaha. :headbang:

[cali yaris]

^ yeah he's for real. :thumbsup:

[Thirty-Nine]

Oh how I wish I could afford this.

Hmmm ... what to offer for trade ... kidney? Would you accept a kidney? How about a kidney and an electric guitar? A kidney, and electric guitar, and a bunch of plastic model kits?

Nevermind. GL with the sale!

[PETERPOOP]

alainmikli definately has money.

[AlainMikli]

alainmikli definately has money.

Yup, but might be not as much as you do, haha. :bow:

[AlainMikli]

^ yeah he's for real. :thumbsup:

Yes, I'm for real. So Frownonfun, pls let me know what's missing. If it is just the injectors, I will buy the kit RIGHT NOW. I already got a deal with a set of 2ZZ injectors if it is.

[frownonfun]

ok sorry for not posting sooner. i was getting cold feet on the sale these last couple days thinking about all the money i'm losing on it but oh well, it happens i guess.

anyway, yes, the only thing that is missing is the injectors. and the instructions and part list are in japanese so i couldn't tell what injectors they were meant to be.

Is anyway you can call PE USA to find out? It's because the kit is no use without knowing what kind of injectors it uses right.

[frownonfun]

sure i'll call monday... i just assumed any upgraded injectors would do the job. but then i don't know a whole lot about this stuff.

[lilredrocket]

With how much HP they claim this kit puts down I'm guessing that one could use 2ZZ or 2AZ injectors and be fine. If the person that bought this kit didn't want to get new injectors just retune the the piggyback for the stock injectors

[AlainMikli]

sure i'll call monday... i just assumed any upgraded injectors would do the job. but then i don't know a whole lot about this stuff.

I just want to make sure I'm getting the right injector for it. LMK!!

[PETERPOOP]

I just want to make sure I'm getting the right injector for it. LMK!!

I'm pretty sure he isn't selling the kit now.

[cali yaris]

why? he said this on two days ago:

[PETERPOOP]

True, but he said this yesterday. :P


having said all that... i think i'm just gonna drive up to dallas this coming weekend with my wife, kids, kaminari kit, and supercharger and have lilredrocket help me with the supercharger in trade for the body kit. that way i'm finally ridding myself of this cursed body kit and also getting the supercharger put on whilst not having lost anymore money in the process besides fuel. plus lilredrocket probably knows more about this car tuning stuff than i do so he can give everyone some accurate feedback on the kit install and performance.

and i feel like an ass having posted two different threads selling things just to turn around and say nevermind but it looks like that's the best deal i'm gonna get when it comes right down to it. sorry.


This is in his kaminari thread.

[frownonfun]

yeah i been on a little big planet binge the last couple days so sorry for the delay in replying.

i guess at the end of the day i would like to have this kit on my car. that's why i bought it when no one else would. but since my dealership tried the install, and said the bracket didn't fit, i been a little apprehensive about spending anymore money to have someone else try and put it on. which is why i was selling it. but if lilredrocket is willing to help me out on the install then i'd like to go ahead and give it another try. it's not too far a drive and my wife has family up that way anyhow.

and idk it still may not fit because of some slight engine bay variation between the '09 and the older models. but that's something i'd like to know for sure instead of just taking my local service departments word for it. i should be going up to dallas on the 18th of this month. then i'll know for sure what i'm doing with this thing.

[PETERPOOP]

well im sure if it doesn't fit the 09s in the end ( no matter what fabrication is done ), you will end up selling it. :P

[ozmdd]

Let me know when you're coming to do the install and I'll help out.

[lilredrocket]

He's coming up on the 18th the more the marrier kind of...

[AlainMikli]

True, but he said this yesterday. :P




This is in his kaminari thread.

Oops, I want that kit so bad. I guess he's right, if it doesn't fit 09, what's the point for me to buy it then.

[WeeYari]

My question is 'Why wouldn't it fit the 09s?' Nothing has changed.

Good luck with this. I'm as anxious as everyone else to see a non-Blitz SC install done.

[frownonfun]

yeah i don't know why it wouldn't fit an 09 but that's the story i got. anyway i don't think i wanna go trying to fabricate anything to fit my car either so if it doesn't fit then i'll end up selling obviously.

[Bluevitz-rs]

Bump, how'd it turn out?

I did a search for "supercharger" and found this thread.

[thebarber]

i think frownonfun blew up his engine w/o a tune

[WeeYari]

i think frownonfun blew up his engine w/o a tune

Really?

[KCALB SIRAY]

Damn!! that sucks. Still have mine if he wants it =)

[frownonfun]

as far as i know my engine has yet to blow up. being that the piggyback came pre-tuned i'm not sure what tuning i would need otherwise. unless i raised the psi. i think it's at 7 now and that's seems far too little to do any major damage in such a short time.

the kit did not fit however. the bracket in question had to be altered to fit and i don't think this issue is exclusive to the late models. pretty sure it's just a flaw in PE's design or their adaptation of the superchargers design from overseas. idk. tried to call and work with them (as i could probably make some kind of prototype bracket that would fit at my work) but they were, as usual, pretty uninterested in talking.

but it runs good. there is a video up somewhere on here of a few of us hot rodding it up and down this paved strip within an undeveloped housing community. the videos leave quite a bit to be desired because for one i wasn't all that good at driving it then but i've gotten better. but it's like i told someone else... it's really only as fast now as i think it should have been from the factory. but thats just my opinion.

[thebarber]

well there ya go! nothing brings the owner out of the woodwork like misinformation!

[frownonfun]

yeah i try not to post on this site unless absolutely necessary. for the same reason i try not to go back to my hometown to visit unless absolutely necessary. i'm not a big fan of the drama.

[ozmdd]

LOL. The car runs nice with it. He dyno'd around 130, If I recall correctly. The dyno sheet is on here somewhere. We went the same day, and it was obviously stronger and spun-up a lot quicker than my NA car.

His car is what I imagine a TS would be like. Then I cry a little when I realize we'll never get one in the US...

[KCALB SIRAY]

VERY disappointing about their lack of interest from the get go. Glad you are liking it.

[cali yaris]

yeah i don't know why it wouldn't fit an 09 but that's the story i got

Just curious, from whom? If PE said it, it might have to do with the fuel management, not physical fitment.

[frownonfun]

Just curious, from whom? If PE said it, it might have to do with the fuel management, not physical fitment.

the service department at my local toyota dealership told me that. actually they didn't necessarily say it doesn't fit the '09. they just told me it wouldn't fit my car. i went on to assume that this must be because i have an 09. because surely power enterprise wouldn't go selling a kit that doesn't fit at all on any us model yaris. lol. silly me for thinking that.

[cali yaris]

ok gotcha. does this thread still belong in the "stuff for sale" category? maybe move it to forced induction?
