    Very cool man! Looks like you picked up a good amount of power... your 0-60 is pretty quick!

    Does installing TRD parts, and at a Toyota dealership, still maintain the factory warranty?

    Oh wow, I didn't realize that!
    I'm surprised there isn't a exclusionary clause or something in the fine print.

    Go Toyota!! :thumbsup:

    (and now I want to supercharge my truck that much more!)

    Congratz! I have a TRD supercharger and with the crazy gas prices, I find that running 89 octane just works fine for me. No heavy knocking or lag. I lost about 2-3MPG over stock setup though.

    Gathering info on forum for my first taco
    Very Nice! Im about to pick up my first Tacoma very soon and Im really liking this S/C Tacoma Thing.
    In a few hours selling my Highly modified Subaru STI tuned to over 400WHP it runs 0-60 in 3 seconds flat on a bad day.
    Im selling the car because i truly do need a truck for hauling motorcycles and small trailers and such.
    Im so glad though that i ran across a S/C for the Tacoma that i can put on when i get my truck to re-capture some of the power im so used to having on a day to day basis!
    Does anyone know what this does to the fuel economy of the truck? I know when i installed my GT52 turbo on my STi it bumped me down 3-4MPG's :(
    Is there any word on reliability issues with the Supercharger that you have experienced/Seen?

    i have heard that the trd blower doesnt really hurt mpg all that much if any. You should run premium though. so that'll cost ya a little more at the pump.

    My impression is that most do not lose that many MPGs from installing the supercharger.

    I have the TRD SC and you loose a some MPG on the freeway but you get bet MPG around town. That is from 10,000 miles using my scangauge II.

    I just towed a trailer and motorcycle with the bed full as well 1500 miles over the mountains, doing 70+ the whole way and I got 13mpg average. Thats not bad considering I was pulling/carrying 3000+ pounds. I also have a 6 spd so you automatic guys will get a little better milage.
