No. Just bolt in on and GO!

What does your dealership typically charge for installation? either by hours or by $?

Thank you

@evilet1111

Dealerships have a set amount of hours for each task that's already calculated. If you read the comments from this video or part one, you'll find some comments on it.

But the other 10% is driving past Corvettes!

This video is great if you have access to all the tools and you have a lift to do the work properly as you are doing it in this video, buy I mean if this is a TRD mod, why can toyota offer such a pckage as an option, like it does for a GPS, sun roof..I am sure many would take the option if it was done straight at the factory and not at a dealership!...I am sure it's been asked but i am just curious as to why not.

You'll have to have your truck towed to the dealership or you can send your ECU to a third party. It's not something you can do yourself.

@FloridaSPL I am able to do all of this at home but how do I flash my ECU is there special software ?

Excellent video

You HAVE to flash the computer with the factory tuning or it won't run properly and engine damage will most likely occur. Oh and that's 515hp and 550 torque. Thanks!

HI quick question. With the NEW TRD supercharger installed how much Horse Power and TORQUE can u get right off the bat? meaning with out any further computer tuning. I hope you get this question with out confusion. Thanks, Great VIDEO by the way!
