Thanks :D
Yes - That was $1600 for the complete kit. The Blitz Supercharger should work without issue one the 2012. The wiring will be a bit different due to the change in the ECM for the 2012, but all of the signals are still there, just in different positions.

The Blitz kit has a clutched pulley and the Fuel Controller that is part of the kit includes a four position switch that you install in the cabin to select at what throttle range the pulley engages. So, you can balance fuel economy with fun. You can even turn it off completely for times when you really want to save fuel.
