How did you like it? Was the difference in performance worth it you think? Also what is the difference between the generations of superchargers...will they all give the same HP gains?

I really do love it. The diff in performance is night and day and def worth the price. On my trip, accordig to my odometer, I was getting 17 mpg while towing. It was actually higher since my odometer is about 5 mph off. Both gen s/c's give the same amount of boost. They are just constructed differently

Where do I go to buy the dynamic tensioner? I have a Gen 1 S/C on my 99 4Runner, but it's got the old style tensioner with the metal plate. I'd like to replace it with the newer style tensioner.

Thanks.....

It will be for sale until it gets sold. I need the cash so I cant keep it unfortunately. When you decide you want it, let me know and I will let you know if I still have it or not. I have several interested so I doubt it will last that long but let me know when you are ready for it

Also, is there anything that need to be done to the supercharger as in maintenance or is it ready to go...I know you stated whats included but is that everything I need to strap it on? and finally if you installed it yourself...was it hard to do...how long did it take?

I havent put it on ebay yet. I thought I would give the forums a chance first. Maint wise its ready to go. I changed out the front drive seal and changed the oil. It has no bearing noise. It has all the bolts, nuts, one way valve, instructions. The only thing you would need is a throttle body gasket from trd, which is only a few $. I have some new vac lines that I will throw in there if you need to use any of that. Im even including the iridium denso plugs. Thos are like $9-$10 each new. Yes, I put it on myself and removed it myself. When I took it off, it only took me 1 hr 45 mins, and that was including me replacing my valve cover gaskets since they needed doing too. If you dont have alot of mechanical experience, you may want to figure on a whole day to make sure you get it right. I work on toyotas for a living so it took me a whole less time to do it

Gotcha...most major thing i've done so far is probably putting my lift on myself...but nothing really in the engine bay but I'll definitely try it myself if I buy it...

Umm you know how much shipping would be about? How heavy is this thing?

Everything will be just shy of 50 lbs. The charger itself isnt that heavy. I got a ship quote for someone in north carolina and it was around $60-$70

If I had a motor to put that on, I'd pick it up from you in person. As much as I like my 3.0 (hey, it runs) I definitely like that setup better.
