Supercharged Landcruiser?

So who's going to be the first to supercharge their LC?

Looks like it's coming out later this summer for the Tundra/Sequoia.

I imagine it'll hook up to the LC...

Coming Soon for the Tundra---TRD Supercharged 5.7 Sequoia - Pics inside!! - Tundra Solutions Forum

Why would one need 504 horses on a 200?
381 sound already huge.

If you need to ask, you don't deserve it

If you throttle conservatively, theoretically shouldn't MPG be better? I know when you punch a supercharged engine, it does like to drink.

I'd love to throw this baby into my truck! Had one on a Sequoia sometime back, and it rocked! Don't need it, but it is fun.

When I had a supercharger on my 4Runner I got better gas mileage than without.
Of course I had to use premium, so it was probably a wash money-wise.

The Tundra SC kit is on the way to the warehouse, and it should be shipping to dealers by months(?) end. If I'm lucky I'll get one.... hopefully the version for the 200 isn't far behind.

I snagged a unit for my Tundra... it will be some time before I get to install it. I thought you folks might enjoy some pictures of the various kit pieces.
