    Can someone with F/I experience tell me how URD compares to TRD? I'm out of warranty anyway. Always wanted one but not anytime soon... I was really hoping in a few years I could buy a 2016 and S/C it.
    So, URD?

    As opposed to the TRD being low to mid? Does low to mid matter when the S/C is only engaged in WOT?

    TRD SC is pretty much across the band, over 2K rpms you're in boost. URD just puts out higher boost and higher HP at higher RPMS. URD was designed to make you go fast, TRD was designed to give you "more power for towing"

    My TRD S/C pulls hard down low. Noticeably better than stock.

    Really? I thought I've heard people say that it wouldn't really help with towing. So if you towed, and put in 4th, you would be in boost your whole trip (Whining)?
    If it's always driven doesn't that mean you will have a more powerful engine all the time? Accelerating, cruising, etc? Also, if it's partially closed to help the engine with low end power why would city MPG suffer? Using more gas to make more power? I've briefly looked at URD before. When I see 5 different kits for a supercharger I stop looking at it considering I'm not buying soon.
