    Actually the closest to off road I've gone was a mile or two on a gravel road. I'm going for the lifted street truck look. Zero practicality with compromises as well.

    I ordered the Roush tensioner on Wednesday. On eBay now looking for Nissan stickers.

    May I remind you that everyone’s Magnuson/TRD Supercharger Kit comes with belt tensioners that are originally spec’d on a bunch of Fords. :D

    ^^^ he's not wrong either!

    Blower pulley spec'd off a GM Cavalier/ Sunfire 4 banger, a tensioner spec'd off Ford Explorer V8's, and coolant pump's as well as reservoirs spec'd off of Lightning F-150's and Cadillac CTS-V's. Our entire supercharger setup was assembled from already on the shelf items.

    Our truck's are also now confused.. are they 4 bangers, 6 cylinders, or 8 cylinder GM's or Ford's? Lol.

    FIFY :rofl:

    Drove mine over a median once. Had to get out of the Whataburger parking lot because the drive through line was too long.

    I'm actually pretty surprised at how much money these things bring at resale.

    I'd run an LS swap if it was easy to get everything working. ABS/TRAC/4WD etc.

    Ordered from @Cruiser Brothers they are having a black November sale right now for $200 off Long Range Automotive tanks. The Tacoma tank runs $1595. So $1395 if you get your order in by 12/3. Shipping is extra and cost will vary by location. If you call them up, ask for Ward Harris. Super nice guy, excellent service.

    See link below for details on the sale:
