Hey guyz, thanx to good connections I managed to get the last brand new TRD S/C in the nation for my Solara. Now Im wondering for those with S/C Solaras, how much did you pay to get it installed, whether dealership or regular mechanic? Thanks...

You could do it yourself depending on your mechanically ability. Cost for an install by the dealer will vary depending on location. I'd say a couple hundred to three is fair.

I got a quote for about $250, but I'm not sure if thats too much or too little. If it comes down to it, I could install it myself, but I really want to stay away from the electricals. I've had bad luck...

Question: I have one of the two O2 Sensors gone bad when I installed the Air/Fuel Gauge by AutoMeter. Will the bad O2 sensor play a bad role once I install the S/C?

$250 is a good deal i would go for it. Def. change the 02 sensor before you put the charger on.
