URD 3.5L Supercharger

I've had the URD Supercharger on my 3.5L Tacoma since August 2020 and am loving it. I'm on stock gearing with 33s and the power gain is great and more than makes up for the extra weight on my truck. Just wanted to share for those who may be on the market for a supercharger.

Post pics of your supercharged Tacomas!

 

Kinda random. Was this meant to be a thread or were you trying to post somewhere else?

 

I've seen a lot of posts about the Magnuson supercharger... Figured I'd start one for the URD Supercharger

 

thats a sexy truck

 

Gotcha, now that you edited your post it makes more sense. Very cool. Running any tune with the charger?

 

How is the tuning done for the URD?

 

URD did the tuning at their headquarters in MD. My truck drives so much better than stock. No more gear hunting, and that power curve with the supercharger is insane.

 

Thank you!

 

So you don’t feel the need to regear or see any benefit? Or is it still a consideration?

 

Don't know if it just me, but I personally do not like the look of it in the engine bay. Bet the power is awesome though.

 

Honestly I've driven Tacos that are re-geared and my Taco drives and accelerates better. I feel no need for it unless I go up in tire size. I might gain slightly more low-end power and MPG gain, but honestly I don't think it's worth it. My truck drives phenomenally when on the trails, also can get up to highway speeds fairly quickly considering how heavy she is over stock.

I'm not condoning re-gearing, I'm just saying that my setup doesn't need it and others with a similar setup will benefit from the URD supercharger without re-gearing.

 

That is a sweet rig, how is the tuning fit it? Do they have different tunes for people with gears? I am running 5.29s.

 

You would have to contact URDUSA via email or phone. Contact information on their website. They only work with Toyotas, so I'm certain they'll work with you on the tune with your gearing.

 

About how much additional HP/Tq dos you pick up?

 

I haven't dyno'd my truck yet, but it's estimated to be about 90hp and 75ft/lb gain over stock. This is with the stage 1 at 6psi, which is tuned very conservatively. Considering I use my truck for wheeling and offroading rather than street racing, I don't have a need to tune to a higher psi and get more power, but it could be done with upgrading other stock internals.

The power gain I've already attained is way more than enough for my truck, even considering the weight I have. I even accelerate to highway speeds faster than my stock truck did with no modifications.

 

what kind of warranty did you get with that? Rotex SC ? hopefully they fixed their longevity issues. Post up some Dyno results - that would be nice to see also. Did you do a self install or have it done by Gadget? Nice Truck. Enjoy!

 

nice truck man

 

I believe it's a 3-year or 36,000 mile warranty they offer with it. I did the install myself, then took it to Gadget for the tuning and to make sure it was installed correctly.

 

Thank you!
