supercharger Q

How many miles is too many for the TRD supercharger. i have two tacomas, a 2005 TRD sport with 138Kmi and the other is a 1210 TRD offroad with 7Kmi. i know 138k is too many but how long can i wait on the new truck?

I don't think that's really a valid question. With proper maintenance, neither motor should be too old or too new.

it's not that odd of a question, i've been asked several times.



to be honest, you could put one on either and i bet it would be fine.



one or the other though, i would put it on the low mileage one.



my dad put his on when it was brand new (98 bodystyle though) and he has 250k or something, maybe more. (i forgot) and it's been fine.



we would put superchargers on new trucks at the dealership and sell them off the showroom floor that way too.

Wont really matter but I like to think of it this way.



The sooner you put it on the longer you have to enjoy your moneys worth!

I agree with 6 shooter. Not an odd question at all given how frequently it is asked with regard to SC installs in general across all makes and models. I also agree that it can be put on either truck, but the new one sounds better to me. Not just because it has lower mileage, but also because you will probably be keeping it for longer.
