Supercharger

I thought that first one was high but you might be able to get him down.

I want one but not right now. That and my motor is right at 200k so I'm kinda wondering on that. It has been taken care of very well but we will see.

I'm always skeptical about putting a SC'er on a car with over 170k miles. After being stock for that long, then all of a sudden adding all this forced air induction, and added horsepower, (in my opinion) it seems like that would cause a higher chance of damaging, and even possibly blowing your engine. Plus you'll need a 7th injector, and a ECU piggyback (another $1,000+) and on top of all that, you get to spend an extra 30 cents at the pump for premium!

I know quite a few of the people on this forum have thrown a supercharger on an engine with over 170k miles and haven't had any problems yet.

Just my 2cents.

If I was going to do it I would wait until I could build the lower end of the block and put better internal parts in the motor. I'm just not one to throw a blower on a car and go. The last motor I built had over 600 hp with no blower. I have never built a yota but if I got 300hp out of one that would be perfect for my needs now. And if I did do a blower it would be on a V8 anyhow...lol I would rather have a Taco Box in my T4R. That is BA man and it would be better for my needs vs wants.

300HP? Supercharger, air intake, and headers?
 
Just something I came across on CL. I know guys look for Supercharges all the time around here. Hit them up and see if they are for sale still.

Just as a reference point. We installed a super charger on our truck right when we bought in 1999. We have about 190k now. We have only had to replace the nose/bearing once. I think they improved the super charger since when we bought ours.
