I'm in the market for a new 2007 Tundra with the 5.7 and I was wondering if there is a supercharger available for it yet, if not, will there be one and when roughly?

I am planning to have it installed by the dealer at the same time of purchase.

When I went to the dealer to price it out and test drive it, he couldn't give me answer if there was one available yet.

Any insight?

Thanks.

 

Isn't there a TRD option. I thought the TRD came with it?

 

According to the guys on Tundra solutions there should be one available late this year from TRD rumor is it will be in the 5k price range

 

You should spend that 5k in a prototype turbo kit!.

GUZZLE GUZZLE ON THE GAS!

 

I agree - Superchargers look nicee but:



They input the crankshaft with crazy harmonics that hammer the bearings -

They heat soak the engine -

Out of juice by 3500rpm

Are ALWAYS ON - regardless if you're sitting in Traffic -

Take a big penalty to run the thing in power terms -


With a Turbo - you can install controls like:

"Dial - a - Boost"

if you want 24lbs. boost - tap it in -

want to go to 7-11 and run the weekend on Regular Pump ? - tap in 2lbs. boost -


for the money you'll spend on a TRD Supercharger - you could have had
a Turbo mounted under the rig 'n a nice eBay Ford Powerstroke intercooler 'n some *Nice* Boost controller in the cabin........ and have healthy bearings in the crankcase..
