I saw this on ebay and thought someone here might be interested. I have no no connection with the seller.

Toyota TRD 3 4L 5VZ FE supercharger Full Kit Tacoma 4Runner T100 | eBay

 

[Gadgetguy]

the starting bid is more than I paid for my 4Runner lol, be cheaper to do a v8 swap

Looks just like one I paid 3k for. I noticed one sold recently for 3850. Not hard to see where this is going.

I tried snagging it for $2500 and he declined....dang it. I just can't justify Spending much more than that for one

 

[LittleCaesar]

It went for $4050. Probably worth as much or more than the 5vz the buyer is putting it on.

Excuse my ignorance but Why are superchargers so expensive? Also do you guys think that $4000 is the new normal for these things?

They are NLA.

Price was about ~2850 new last year.

I knew I should have bought one, just to resell it again

Easiest $1000 I would have ever made.

Gone.....

You can get a new high boost TRD S/C from LCE for cheaper?

 

[KainDrag]

So my hope for getting a used one for 1200 is null and void?

 

[zacattack20]

Damn. For that price it almost makes me want to sell mine.
Almost.

Coming from the 3rz guy. Might as well go turbo now for that price it went for.

Are there some reputable manufacturers for turbo kits for this 4runner?

No not really but it can be done. Cxracing makes a Tacoma kit. It's lower quality but could work if you do it correctly. They will sell the kit minus turbo for around $1100. I have lots of experience with cheap eBay turbo kits.

If you run a good turbo. Reweld there t3 turbo manifold. Support manifold with brackets and it should work pretty well.

I thought this might happen. I bought mine new when I learned there was only 29 superchargers left in the country. That was 2011, and as it turned out Toyota/TRD did one last run of 500 (I think). I wonder if any of those 500 are still available. Has anyone checked?
