    I highly doubt we will see 310lb ft from a 3.5L

    I would be happy to see 280.

    Most certainly true. The most powerful 3.5l Toyota motor right now is the Lexus version which has 306hp and 277ft/lbs. I suppose you may be able to tune more torque out of it if you lower the hp....

    Having a SuperCharger on my 2012 TRD Sport 4x4 4.0 V6 auto trans, unequivocally had a dramatic increase in hp and torque rating. That said, how to fully exploit hitting the "sweet spot" in engaging the power shift points of the trans had never given me any problem towing a trailer loaded with 4,512 plus trailer weight at a safe 50 mph from Dallas to Houston, TX. Very adequate and it met the load demand. I bought mine a 2012 Double Cab TRD Sport 4x4, from a Sheriff auction with 17, 744 miles Aug 2014 for a total cost of $26,300, including dealer installed Super charger, Revtek lifted suspension, Toyo M/T 295x70/17 tires mounted on wheels, Bushwacker fender, Satoshi grill, 1000 watts /ch x5 amp with sub, navigation, Sirius radio and backup camera. And yes, the previous owner had it repainted a darker shade of gray…….He got busted a month after having the Supercharger installed on Federal charges forfeiting $50,000+, plus another car. It does suck on gas and I'm guilty as sin, using the "Emergency war power" pedal liberally…Fun, yeah.

    The Colorado with a very similar but slightly larger displacement V6 makes 269 torque at 4000. The new 285 HP 4.3L 12 valve Chevy V6 is 305 torque at 3900. The 3.5L bskinson cycle Toyota will not be anywhere close to 300, if it matches the Colorado then Toyota fans should be happy.

    Traded the 2015 TRD Pro 6spd Supercharged on a PowerWagon and could not be happier. My 2011 Tacoma with the TX Baja package (Added by me) is still treating me great. My 1985 Toyota never skips a beat.
    Fuck you got a black truck! Thow some color on those rings it will look bitching! If you doo red with silver bolts youll match perfect with the center caps..
