At this stage the TRD supercharger kit is only available at the SAC Kyalami and Boksburg branches but will soon be distributed to all SAC branches, and coming from Toyota Racing Developments (TRD), you know that this kit is going to be as good and reliable as anything that comes directly from the factory. |
| In fact, the kit is so good, that overseas, when it is installed by an authorised Toyota dealer, the supercharger has the same warranty as the power train or the balance of the new car warranty, whichever is greater. |
| Unfortunately, it must be noted that no such agreement is in place in South Africa and the fitment of this kit can affect your warranty. |
But back to the kit itself, it is also developed purely for use on the 4.0 V6 petrol Toyota engine, so it is not a case of fitting a generic unit and hoping that it will work like you expect. |
| Every nut, bolt and pipe goes exactly where it is meant to go and this results in a kit that not only does the job, but looks the part too |
| This supercharger system features Eaton roots-type rotating components in a one-piece integral manifold, iridium spark plugs, and a five-rib serpentine drive belt system running at around 0.5 bar of boost pressure. |
This is enough to turn your Toyota in a real tar burner, now with 250kW and 5300Nm of power and torque available for you to exploit at the mere prod of the accelerator pedal. |
| You will also have vastly improved low down torque and this you know results in far nicer vehicle to drive on a daily basis. |
So if you just want the strongest Toyota Fortuner, Hilux or Land Cruiser in town because you do, or perhaps you want to tow with absolute ease, then you should consider giving the guys a call in Kyalami or Boksburg. |
| They have kits in stock, so with prices starting at R65,000 fully fitted, or R74,000 with the optional a full stainless steel performance exhaust and branch, they will provide you with the best bang per buck you can get today. |
