You need to upgrade the fuel delivery system when adding a supercharger. Check out Gadget's site and do a search on here - you'll be able to read for days!

Depends on how hard you drive it. I also think it depends on what elevation you are at. I have noticed that people in SLC and Colorado don't have as much pinging problems as the people at sea level.

The only other things that I have added is 2 step cooler plugs and I am going to install a TRD thermostat soon. I really don't have a pinging problem, but I want to eliminate the occasional ping I get.

That sounds like my dream Runner. Color and everything. Post some pics so I can be even more jealous.

the title is supposed to say vrooom not zrooomm my bad.
but yea i love this rig. i got it for 19,000 grand with new tires supercharger in december, trd exhaust in january. its really fast and great looking especially with the brush guard that we bent back to shape and fitted on it. and man hella 500 driving lights are bright as a mofo. pics will hopefully be up tommorow. now i just need to get the front windows tinted to 15 (had 5 on my old rig and its dark, this one ha 5 all around but they pealed it off the front windows for resale) i also got all my stereo equipment in it, and will be building a new vented sub box in 2 weeks when i get back from spring break in mexico. also need a new hu for it
