    I plan on adding a supercharger to my truck and wanted to change out the cam but idk where to find a cam for my truck after it is supercharged. the supercharger is rated up to 6 psi so a 6 - 10 psi cam I would like to have if later want to change the psi of the supercharger.

    Why are you wanting to change the cams? The 4.0 can be supercharged with no modifications other than injectors and tuning, Toyota even made a supercharger specifically for it that was available as a dealer addon or through TRD.
    Haven't heard of anyone changing cams unless they were planning on doing a full build for racing or something like that.
    There is a member on here that makes -3 degree exhaust cam gears that help out with power and fuel economy but thats as far as most people go regarding cams.

    Ah ok that's beyond me but good luck:thumbsup:
    Check with the guys in the performance and tuning section, there's quite a few smart people that know alot about that kinda stuff that hang out over there.

    I’d talk with the folk in the supercharger thread. To make that kind of power you’ll need full intake, complete exhaust, supercharged with probably a 2.7” pulley or below if you are going the Magnuson route (assumed by the 6-7 psi in OP), a custom tune and possibly meth/water injection.

    Don’t forget about the trans that’ll grenade shortly after at that kind of power.
    A shift kit and a much larger trans cooler is what I’d go with.

    My truck is supercharged with 2.8” pulley, Volant intake, cat-back exhaust, & the -3° cam gears and it rips. Even on 35” tires and stock gearing.
    I’d guess about 300hp to the wheels if I were on stock tires.
