My point was that the TRD supercharger was designed to fit pre vvti engines (not your 2005 Tundra engine). I don’t know of any other supercharger for the 2UZ.
Is the TRD supercharger really that bad for the 4.7? (6 Viewers)

For anyone wanting to get a super charger. Magnuson, who made TRD superchargers, makes one for the 4.7.
Edit: apparently this is no longer listed on their website. Sorry to get peoples hopes up.

There's a nice little spot in front of the muffler next to the transfer case that maybe a rear-mount turbo could be squeezed in with a custom y-pipe. I think that's a long-term goal of mine. TC are so much better than SC especially when climbing up in elevation.
So what
where there's a will, there's a way.
I remember coming across a post on one of the tundra sites that someone successfully installed one on a vvti tundra. I don't recall if any mods where needed.
@Tundra Garnet
I installed my trd blower around 200k and currently have 225k. I had belt tensioner issues right after the install but thats from the original unit with 200k. Swapped in a new oem one(comes with smaller pulley) and got the right belt for the setup. It has been a trouble-free 25k miles since.
Here you go, have fun!

In theory I wouldn’t think it would be too difficult. You’d need the lower manifold from a pre vvti engine, you’d need to make sure the vvti still functions and the computer is managing the engine correctly.
So no reputable company makes a good supercharger or turbo kit (Precision, BW, etc)?Here you go, have fun!

best way to get power out of a 2UZ these days is to take it out, and swap a big ol 24 valve cummins in there, with a monster turbo and a tune. Happy days

Aren't the pre 03 tundra engines produced in Japan ?

Has anyone ever talked with URD about cross compatibility?

They're claiming factory injectors and pump are ok. They're using a piggyback ECU. Neat kit, but the price tag is painful. I'd only invest in that if I had a late model 100 with the 5 speed trans as well.
That appears to be for a 200 series with a 4.7l engine...not sure it would fit a 100 series.
I thought the 200 series had the 5.7l.
They list it twice, it seems. Bullet Supercharger Kit for Landcruiser 100 & Lexus LX470 [BULL_LC100super] : Extreme Landcruiser, Upgrades for Extreme Offroad Performance
One for the 100, one for the 200. Same core components, same description from what I can tell.
Yes, absolutely you need some ECU solution or you'll blow it up big time. Might be why some of the SC trucks failed too, I have seen people install TRD superchargers with no care in the world for ECU mods. No, the computer will not compensate on its own. It's designed to compensate 10-15% for variations in temperature or air pressure but a SC or TC boosts output by 50-100%, too much to compensate for.
I have a MAP-ECU which is a piggy back for Toyota ECUs. I have been waiting for my other projects to die down a little bit before installing it but I'm hoping I can then tune the engine past 300hp naturally aspirated. This ECU takes boost inputs and can also properly control the engine with a turbo in the future and E85 too. Hell it could even run NOS, two of the big ones.
Rotrex superchargers build boost with RPM so at low RPM it won't deliver much but should scream at the top end.URD lists superchargers for 4Runner and GX 4.7l.
