Hi all, newbie here.. just purchased a 1996 Tacoma extra cab 2wd with a 5 speed and 3.4L V6 AND a TRD supercharger... Now Im not an expert on these but I do see a lot thats different on this truck.

I most likely will sell the supercharger so I ask the experts here what needs to be changed her and what am I actually looking at? Any help is appreciated

Thanks much!!
Pete

I wouldn't change a thing myself. How many miles are on it?

You will need the stock manifold, injectors, intake and various other parts.

Kinda of a dumb question i guess but didn't you know what you were getting when you bought it ??:icon_confused:

If you're in minnesota, I'd be happy to trade my stock parts for your supercharger =D

[FONT=&quot]I am mostly a dual turbo type of person when it comes to forced air. Superchargers are far less expensive and do not live that long from my experience.

Plus you do not put out as much HP because that extra belt drag will take away another 12 to 15% HP. Love the turbo; however, $10K installed is ridiculous for a good set-up...[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Before installing a supercharger you might consider getting a rear wheel dyno for HP comparison gains. [/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Also remember, you may hurt other drive train components that are unable to withstand the extra HP these forced air applications make. I started bending axles with dead stop hard take offs. So you will need to bullet proof other items own down the line. [/FONT]

Totally Agree!:yes:

In my case, fast isn't what I'm lookin for, like, you guys said, it's a truck lol... It's more about passing power and hill-climb w/ a trailer along with more low-end torque for off-road use.
