Any chance that Magnuson might release their own supercharger kit?

Any chance that Magnuson might release their own supercharger/kit now that Toyota has left us high & dry?

Discuss:

 

I spoke to a sales rep for Magnuson last month and was told they're currently in negotiations with Toyota and will make an announcement later this year.

 

Dunno, just have to wait methinks.

 

I hope it goes thu! I refuse to pay the "late to the party" fee.

 

Yes

Late to party fee applies for the bros

 

It would be sad if they did not. Someone needs to step up. There is SFA for the newer 4.0 tacos. I bought an 06tundra when i realized my dreams of a sc taco were not gonna happen. I would buy an sc for that but it is non exhistant. Not fair that you can easly get a blower for just about any chevy motor out there, and nothing for toyota.

 

I would probably pre-order one now if it was legit, and made some decent hp. I had a trd supercharger and fit kit in my cart for $4400 the day after they said they were going to quit making them and I didn't pull the trigger, still pissed about that.

 

Gen 3 s/c

 

I hope not.

 

I only became a Toyota owner!

 

Did someone really say "it's not fair?"

 

They claim to only use 1/3 hp at 60 mph. That's pretty impressive.

 

I read it was .5 while not in boost

 

• Internal Bypass Valve virtually eliminates parasitic loss (uses less than 1/3 of a horsepower at 60 mph).

This is from the specs sheet for the 3.8 wrangler. Not really a big difference either way, but I was just surprised by this.

 

Today I talked to the dealer who told me he had a sc available but Toyota wouldn't release it without a fit kit, since I have a fit kit I should have been good to go but now they are using them to fill back orders.

He did tell me that he was told that the OEM for Toyota will be releasing them without the TRD designation towards the end of the year, but wasn't told who "they" are!

 

Well as I said, that's what he told me when he refunded my CC payment!

 

"The new Super Charger comes out late this year....... Dave."

 

Here's news from gadget over at Xru.

 

Thread revived. Want my blower.

But really, where is everyone hearing this about Magnuson? I don't see it on their site at all.
