Supercharger improvements 3.4L double cab

I'm going to have my supercharger installed on my 2003 3.4L dbl cab next week. I was wondering how many people have one installed, and how much of a difference it makes. I was thinking of getting the 7th injector also or the SS FTC1 or something like that.

I know what the specs say, but they all vary by model. If anyone has these mods on a 3.4L dbl cab I would love to hear from you.

I have a 03' dblcab 3.4L supercharged. Let me tell you it makes a big difference. I love the response I'm getting from my Tacoma. I had the s/c installed at about 9k miles.

I drive up a long, steep, incline to work everyday. Before the s/c, I noticed that when I would be cruising at about 50mph uphill, and I move to the left lane to overtake another vehicle, the acceleration after I changed lane was slow. Now with the s/c, acceleration after the lane change is a lot faster with no hesitation. But I also had a borla exhaust system installed before the s/c, so I'm sure that helps also.

One problem I had with the s/c is pinging but this was a long while after the s/c was installed. It happened while I was punching the gas hard up another incline. I had denso irridium plugs and a TRD thermostat installed and that took care of the problem. If a 7th injector is in your future, then hold up on the thermostat because it comes a TRD thermostat, but it might be a good idea to replace the plugs at the time of s/c installation. Some people get this problem and some don't.

I'm waiting for my TRD headers and 7th injector to come in. I'll let you know how my truck drives with those upgrades. I don't really need any more power, but I think these last upgrade are more for curiosity and the passion for performance! Good luck!

Re: Supercharger improvements

Sorry for the reply, I didn't know you posted this a long time ago. Did you ever install a 7th injector?

You will do yourself much better by buying the URD injector kit from Gadget. Less money, better results.

Yeah, I installed the 7th myself and I also installed a URD Additional Injector Controller. After I installed the 7th, it was running very rich. So I got the AIC corrected the AFR. The truck is running soooo sweeeettttttt.

Cool!! So how did the your Toy drive after the injector was installed without the AIC? Did you know it was running rich?

So back to URD: Did you buy the 7th injector upgrade kit $799 or just the AIC $249? That's a really good website!
