So are there any TRD Superchargers left? (11 Viewers)

Sorry, I don't know enough about the 3FE to be able to spit something out. I am pretty sure there isn't a turbo manifold for it so that would be the first hurdle.

Awesome! Now do that for the 3f-e.
 
My buddy has one he is selling. The supercharger/engine were pulled from a 4.5L for a V8 conversion. PM me if you are interested and I can put you in contact with him. I just got off the phone with him to check and he was asking $3.5K. He is texting me some pictures of it. It is still on the motor.

I just bought this unit. It doesn't come with the TRD fan, does anyone know where I can find one?
 
You mean a 2JZGTE is not the same as 1FZ-FE?
Both very robust platforms.
There was a 800ph supra in town, cant remember if it was dual or single turbo.
They said the bottom end on those was good for 700-800 HP with no modifications!
I found that astounding.
I often wonder what kinds of HP the 1FZ-FE could handle.
The tranny would likely be the limitation, besides these trucks aren't build for speed.
 
I am not in a position to take this on but you can get almost everything to bolt a system together with the exception of the intake (from the stock airbox MAF to the turbo inlet), the charge pipe (from the turbo outlet to the TB) and the downpipe (from the turbo to the stock exhaust) Any decent shop or exhaust shop could do that for you.

If I was building a BUDGET system to mimic the TRD SC that is; low boost, approx 60-90hp increase, no intercooler etc this is what I would do.

Remove stock manifold and y-pipe and bolt on the
Treadstone cast manifold with T4 flange and wastegate flange built in - $419
http://www.treadstoneperformance.co...name=Toyota+Land+Cruiser+1fzfe+Turbo+Manifold

Then bolt-on a
Borg Warner S200SX 770 Turbo, T4 single scroll, WITH V-Band flange. - $848
http://www.full-race.com/store/turbos/borgwarner-airwerks/borgwarner-s200sx-7670-turbo.html

Then bolt-on a
Tial 38mm Wastegate - $239 Get both the 6psi and 7.5psi spring
http://www.treadstoneperformance.com/product.phtml?p=453&cat_key=157&prodname=Tial+38mm+Wastegate

Have an intake tube made from the turbo to the stock air box, weld on the provided flange and bolt-on a
Tial Blow Off Valve - $259
http://www.treadstoneperformance.co...9&cat_key=3333&prodname=Tial+Q+Blow+Off+Valve

This is kind of tough but remove the lower oil pan and bolt-on the
Treadstone turbo oil supply and drain kit - $105
http://www.treadstoneperformance.com/product.phtml?p=67759&cat_key=614&prodname=Turbo+Universal+Oil+Supply+and+Drain+Kit,+Pro

Bolt-on a
Downpipe V-band flange and v-band to connect to back of turbo - $63
http://www.treadstoneperformance.com/product.phtml?p=69196&cat_key=662&prodname=Treadstone+S200SX/S300SX3+V-Band+Downpipe+Flange+V42350

Add the
Silicon Coupler to attach MAF to Intake tube - ~$8
Silicon Coupler to attach Intake tube to Turbo - ~$8
Silicon Coupler to attach Turbo outlet to charge pipe ~$8
Silicon Coupler to attach charge pipe to TB - ~$8

tighten the bolts on the
4 Worm drive clamps - $10 (2) for the MAF to Turbo inlet, (2) for the turbo outlet to TB
http://www.treadstoneperformance.com/product.phtml?p=67769&cat_key=612&prodname=Worm+drive+Clamps

So this is $1985 and mostly "Bolt-on" ;)

All you would have to do is bolt this on, and have someone fabricate the Intake pipe, the charge pipe and downpipe. And you are done. You can swap the Wastegate spring between 6 and 7.5psi of boost to see how everything lines up, the turbo is very undertaxed so intake temps will be fairly low. Again this is not my all out performance build, but this is all very high quality, there are no Chinese crap parts like in the CXRacing kit. This is going to put you almost identical with the TRD SC'r but it will also have some of the same issues those guys can see on really hot 100+ summer days with high intake temps, because neither setup has any kind of Intercooler but the TRD guys have been handling this with meth injection, after the fact intercoolers or higher octane fuels.

Ryan this is a fantastic list!

I have been seriously considering doing this. I realize it is not to the same level that your system is, but for those of us that don't have the time or $$$ to do all of it, you have cut down the research time tremendously.

I will look into this more seriously, as fabricating the pipes is relatively easy for me. Now once I do this, I will ALWAYS want MORE..... Then I can expand on it and eventually have something with enough HP to start breaking things!

Thanks again!
 
No. I am sorry not sure where you are getting your information but 1FZ's on stock bottom ends routinely go 7-800hp.

Stock compression is already 9:1 so you don't have detonation issues.

Supra pistons are built for boost, 1fz are not. You would need to replace your pistons in order for the engine to handle any reasonable amount of boost/ detonation.

Yes, I am running the Bullet headers...nice thick-ass flange, ceramic coated, etc. They are great but routing takes them pretty close to frame rail near brake line bracket. Shipping from AUS will kill you though...almost as much as the headers themselves! It only made sense to me to buy when the AUS dollar value dropped. Maybe I'll look at taking the basic layout of mine and get them produced in Vegas after I get back from working in Vietnam!

BoxYourEars, so are you running the Bullet Racing headers on a stock US block?! Cuz my exhaust is KAPUT (https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/rhd-vs-lhd-exhaust-fitment.815830/) and I wanted to get a high quality full exhaust (headers to catback) but was concerned re: RHD vs LHD fitment. And was specifically looking at this: http://www.bulletcars.com/parts/engine-parts/bullet-ultimate-exhaust.html

Aside from accounting for the EGR (which I'm not sweating; I'll prob go with EGR blockoff plates and ditch the emissions equipment anyway), any fitment issues? Cuz you may have the answer I've been lookin *everywhere* for! :)[/QUOTE]
