what do ya figure a supercharged 2uz-fe makes in HP & torque?
The VVT-I version made 271HP / 315 ft-lbs, and this engine is a 2006 VVT-I variant. I've heard that the supercharger works and doesn't work. I'm completely willing to go to an aftermarket or pigggyback ECU to make it work.
I found a quote from the old TRD website
but of course, this was the older non-VVT-I 2UZ-FE.
Assuming it runs, and assuming the gains are the same (With these results max hp would be 389 and max torque would be 434 lb-ft.
I'm assuming those are all SAE-net figures, at the flywheel. RWHP is probably 20-25% less.
Still, might be fun to take out the occasional Camero or Mustang, IDK.
Is bench-racing even a thing in the FJ55 world?

Not everything will have forced induction. @FJ60Cam is building a stroked (5.2L) 1fz-f (carb manifold with a sniper) for me, and I'm going to put it in the 45lv that @55guy built instead of the SBC that's in it now. That's probably next spring or summer.
Stock 1fz-fe is 100mm x 95mm for 4476.78cc of displacement. This one is 101mm x 108mm for 5191.69cc and I took the CR to 10:1. With the increased piston speed, compression, displacement and engine management(*), I figure it boogies away from a stoplight. Yes, it's "oversquare", but I don't plan to spin it past 6,000rpm, even though with the rods and rod bolts it would probably take a lot more.
Scene at a stoplight.
Them: "What's it got in it?"
Me: "It's stock."
* Cam has ignition control figured out with the Sniper, and the Sniper is likely at least as good at fuel management as the Toyota 1fz-fe system was, given that it's unchallenged by emissions, CAFE and 85 octane gas.
Since the 45LV is a 1966 model, CO emissions don’t matter.
It’s probably cleaner than the F that originally came in the truck anyway.

I built a 97 for the kid. Somewhat limited by CO emissions (no turbos, no 5-speed, has to keep the MIL off), but I stuck a TRD supercharger on it, did the head gasket and PHH stuff, re-geared it to 4.56:1 and dropped a shift kit in it.I drove an ‘06 with the supercharger Slee built, don’t know the figures but it was noticeable
Passed CO emissions once he bought a gas cap for it.
Has 35s (thus the gears), ARB front w/ winch, Slee rear and sliders, dual batteries, aux tank, so it’s heavy. No rack because it won’t fit in his garage with one.
It’s not a drag race vehicle, but it moves fast enough for a 7000lb truck, and it goes up I-70 with traffic, so he can take it skiing.
I’m curious to see what the 40 does with the later 1fz-fe (coilpacked, longer intake, bit more compression), supercharger, 5-speed and 33s. It’s lighter, has fewer drivetrain losses, but geared a little bit taller.

2006 Tundra 2UZFE w/VVTi and TRD Supercharger 349RWHP @ 7psi
"Non-VVTi S/C converted to work on a VVTi model. Actually there is very little needed to make it fit. I bent a coolant pipe out of the way (rumor is one from an 04 or older will work too) , and relocated the air pump, that mounts under the Intake manifold."
349 RWHP... Heh heh.

TRD 4.7 Supercharger on 06 DC with VVTI
TRD 4.7 S/C on 06 DC with VVTI *DYNO Results page 6 post #87* *UPDATE!! Dyno results page 6 post #87* Hey guys just thought I'd start a thread about installing the TRD S/C on a VVTI 2UZ. I have read here that they don't fit because of an air pump under the factory intake manifold. I was told...
With mine on since 2000 in my pig your numbers are super close to what i had down from dyno testing in late 2000, . a little head work and better ecu will get you just over 400 on the hp side . mine ended up way overloaded on the weight scale after all the gear was bolted on . But i would not trade the way it has performed over the years for anything . . in 20 years it has lost one coil , and has a frustrating wire issue (resolved ) . other than that it has just been gas and go .
