Anyone know where i can find a supercharger I’ve been trying to look thorough the forums and haven’t found much but older posts that were sold ....
 
Untested on an USDM ECU.

"Engine management system and custom dyno tuning are required"
At 5psi, I wouldn't worry about it too much. Thats about the same amount of boost as the ancient inefficient m90 trd supercharger makes with no fuel mods. I think the owner of that company is on here. I don't know his mud name off hand but he may be able to answer questions. Nice that they offer a water to air intercooler.
 
That is not how it works.

A positive displacement blower creates boost based on air volume per rotation. Depending on the pulley sizes, the blower size and the engine size that creates the boost curve. That blower is much bigger than the M90 blower TRD used. Likely to get boost earlier. But in Australia there is no OBDII there is also no O2 sensors so there is no closed loop fueling control. So you don't have to worry about being lean while in closed loop like you do in the US. So yeah the system has not been tested on a USDM ECU, 5psi doesn't mean anything when you don't know where the boost curve comes in and if the truck will be in open or closed loop.

Im not sure what specifically your talking about.

That is a valid concern I didn't think about. It would be wise to install a afr gauge to ensure its not leaning out b4 closed loop engages. If it does lean out then add a bit of water meth to it which isn't too expensive. From what I have experienced of Toyota's open loop operation, I would be surprised if it did run lean at all in open loop. A rising rate fuel pressure regulator would also work similar to which trd used to supply with some of their kits and worked ok.
 
I don't agree with the closed loop argument of running lean. By definition it adjusts fuel delivery to maintain a consistent AFR during closed loop. At worst it would throw a P0171 which only means that the ECU has had to adjust the fuel trim values beyond a programmed value. Even then the engine would not be running any different AFR wise. It might be a challenge to get around that code if you needed to pass inspection.

Definitely some risk buying and installing one. I'm surprised that they haven't had someone work through it for our market yet.
 
Well 14.7 for a NA truck is lean for a boosted truck so not really sure what there is to not agree with.

The bullet cars kit comes with extra injectors and a crappy piggy back. I have spoke with the dude Tom who I think owns or is a head man there.

For the money I say turbo. A lot cheaper. Shoot you could even get a haltech stand alone with a CX racing kit and it would cost less
then the nice kit from bulletcars.

Lots of good info here on the forums, I would say for the money on a USED super charger it would be better spent on a small turbo kit.

I also spoke to turbo glide. He will make a new batch of manifolds at some point and sell you a proven kit. Shipped it would cost 30-50% less then a TRD charger, from my understanding.
