If you send in the $30 for the extended 3 year warranty for the Procharger, they send you a $hitload of free oil.

Really, I should do that. Is it still possible to buy the extended warranty this late after originally purchasing it?

Damn it. I wish I would've purchased the extended warranty. Oh well.

Back to the original question. No, I've only done one oil change so far. I've only put 4000 miles on the car since the SC install. I'm probably gonna do another soon.

Superchargersonline.com sells 3 bottles for $29

I'm assuming the C-2 uses 6 ounces of oil, but not sure.

I'm sure Tony at Superchargersonline could get the 2.5 ounce bottles, so you don't have to measure anything. Should be cheaper too.

Never realized it was so little. That's just amazing to me that that little bit of oil can lubricate these gears running at such high speeds. Must be some super duper oil or something.

now you can see why they say to let the car fully warm up before driving it........gotta spread that 2.5 ounces around in there
