UPDATE: This has been canceled/suspended due to issues locating parts (as the article says). I am just going to add racing headers and leave it for now. I may revisit the project at a later time.

I own a 2005 Pontiac Vibe that I purchased last year at the end of June 2009. I have since added a Cosmo CAI and a Magnaflow Exhaust system. My next thing to do is install the TRD Supercharger and an aftermarket ECU to tune the car once the supercharger is installed. The only problem is that Toyota stopped producing the Supercharger and the 2005 Vibe has a drive by wire throttle system whereas the 2003-2004’s came with a cable controlled throttle. So here is what I am going to need to complete this project:

TRD Supercharger Blower ◄
5th Injector for TRD SC ◄
G-Reddy Emanage ◄
Boomslang Harness ◄
Wideband Air/Fuel Gauge ◄
Boost Gauge ◄
Throttle-body Adapter Plate

Optional:

Aftermarket Header

So the things on the list with the “◄” next to them I have already located them. I found out that because of the difference in the mounting of the throttle-body between the 2003-2004 and the 2005-2008 makes it impossible to directly mount the 2005-2008 throttle-body to the supercharger without an adapter. The only problem is that the guy who used to custom make them is nowhere to be found and the few people who do have them are not willing to give them up. So I am trying to figure out how to make one or possibly modify a throttle-body spacer to work. Until then the project is on hold.
