I have posted in threads about the SC in this forum and no one has replied. Does anyone have any of these units?

Later,

Chris

Why was this moved? My post was to retailers. I wanted to know who had these. Why did you move the post to this thread?

Only Carson Toyota had them as far as I know. They sold out a few weeks ago, I guess.

I bought one at $1149, but haven't put it in yet (still waiting on my FTC-E). The one I got looks brand new- 4th gen unit with a high serial number. There isn't even oxidation on the pipes!

The first one I got had a broken stud in it, and looked a bit used. I returned it for this one, and was very glad I did!

You lucky lucky man. I called TRD and their respone was "We have no plans to release anymore of these units".

Also its kinda funny that TRD tries to seperate its self from Toyota yet their help email address is [email protected]. Hmmmmmm

I thought that Magnusson was the one who remanfactured the units. At least thats where I sent mine...Bought a used charger for 1000 and spent 300 to get it all redone...works flawlesssly.

So you had your supercharger remanufactured for 300 bones from them? what's the warranty on that and the down time from the date you shipped till the date you got it back? I'm looking to redo mine later since I'm about to hit 90,000.

thanks

I had everything redone except the rotors so it wasnt a full remanufacture. They guarantee their work for a year or something like that and it took about 1 1/2 weeks to ship get the work done and recieve it.

rotors? whats that? could you tell me more what you had done to it? AND what the full remanufactured work consist of if you know. Thanks for the info I just want to know whats in your package deal to see if its good enough or do i need more. You sound pretty happy with yours so maybe it's good for me.

Do you have the contact info for the company you got the work and the charger from?

Rotors are the two three pronged blades that make the boost...they spin inside the supercharger housing...They also dont touch anything so it is very rare that they need to be replaced.

What I had done was....new nose cone assembly(the gears in the tip of the nose cone that are connected to the pulley and the rotors) I also had them resurface the rotors so they were smooth, also had a new boost actuator put on..the thing in the back of the charger that has a diaphram in it. Also had new bearings put in. Basically after all this the supercharger is brand new except for the rotors and the housing...But the internals are what experience wear.

The company is responsible for actually building the charger...TRD just slaps their name on it.

the rotors are the big impellers in the s/c that push the air - check out www.gadgetonline.com for some picks
