TRD PRO Needs A Supercharger...

[SOOTRD]

When is Toyota releasing the TRD S/C for 2015?? Any ideas?

Oh boy I can't wait to see everyone's responses to this!

Long story short: There is no supercharger and there likely never will be. There is only speculation. No one knows.

Last I heard is that it's coming soon!!! Keep an eye out for it!!!

Have you not popped the hood yet? It's already in there.

If they make it, it will only be available for TRD Pros.

Any ideas?

:tape2: must resist the ban

A hologram of Kiichiro Toyoda himself is holding a press conference later this month, and it's expected the release date will be announced at that time.

Where are the search nazi's when we need them?

Yes, the Four runner needs more power, there is no doubt its underpowered, and was by today's standards before the Gen 5 came out. When you buy it, you except that as part of the compromise you make with any vehicle purchase that otherwise meets the majority of what you are looking for. But modern engines, and Japanese engines dont lend themselves to practical and significant HP upgrades. Its better to except that or look for something else that is more power or speed centric then off-road. My current trail rig is a 1996 Montero with 225HP and 37" tires, and its slow as a snail. But that is the way it is as well....

Are you saying the 4Runner was underpowered until the 5th Gen came out?

Wait!

The sales guy said only the Trail was the only model capable of handling the SC, hence the hood scoop.

:lmao:

please jump in front of a semi and make sure it veers off the road into your TRD PRO.

 

[TheWraith]

oohhh how I wish there was a roots type supercharger for out motors...:Cry:

 

[Apex Overland]

you know... because you need all that extra power when you are cruising the mall parking lot in your TRDPro.

I heard if you fart in the gas tank it is equivalent to having a supercharger and a turbo! :lock1: :deadhorse:

Some guy in a TRDP pulled along side of me the other day, he looked confused, rubber necking and looking at my truck up and down at the the stoplight. I waved, he didn't wave back but continued to look completely perplexed, like he had been taken to the cleaners. The only thing I can guess, he was wondering why mine was soo much more badass than his

I hear you need the Japanese language version of Techstream to turn it on though...

 

[Intruder]

Pffft, who needs a supercharger when you've got one of these. Works great for bumping over obstacles on the trail.

Soorunner... Sold the supercharged xrunner for the trd pro. I can understand your frustration.

Our best bet is gadgets urd supercharger. On a side note, check out his spec u exhaust. Debating on whether to pull the trigger on full 304 stainless jba's or wait for his spec u headers.
