Anyone think we will see a supercharger for the 3.5?

Anyone out there think a supercharger will ever happen with the 3.5? Can it be done with the Atkinson engine?

 

i think I'll sit this one out

 

I think there's a part of the better fuel economy thing they are trying to go for that you're missing out on. Not that it's actually working out for them but, you know.

 

No.

 

It sure looks nice... 323bhp, 295lb-ft.

 

A turbo one day maybe but don't see a supercharger at all.

 

This gutless bastard needs something lol

 

A better owner perhaps

 

Oh it's getting that real soon.

 

Sell it and get something you want.

 

4.0 would work.

 

Whatcha waiting for?

 

Maybe you could lift one from a Lotus.

 

The 4.0 has more low speed torque for sure. The 3.5 needs rpms to make power..... the 3.5 really seems to be just happy spinning up. It runs like a sewing machine at high speed. The 4.0 doesn't like high speed. Meh, it's just the way it was made.

In all honesty, the 3.5 is just fine. Just give it more gas and it'll scoot.

 

I agree with all of that, But the truck isn't smooth at all driving it slow or fast. The shifting is so jerky in this thing I have never driven anything worse in my 41 years.

 

I've emailed Magnuson. They are developing one.

 

How will you tune it with the ecu locked up so tight

 

I wouldn't know the answer to that, sorry
