I installed a TRD charged 5vz into an older body style 4runner for a friend. With the stock FMU it sucked ****, under boost it was super lean. He bought the 7th injector kit and it still didnt impress me. We ended up using some
440cc injectors from an na mkiv supra and tuned it with an afc. That thing mob's. A 4runner has no buisness going that fast.
I wanted to get the trd charger for a tundra and retrofit it to my wifes 3uz in the gs430...but I just missed a used on on fleebay last week.
The internals of the 2uz and 3uz arent as beefy as the 1uz.

I had the TRD supercharger on my 96 4Runner (actually ran mid-high 15's in the 1/4mi... 9.7 in the 1/8mi) and I fully planned on getting the TRD sc for my 2005 4Runner V8 Sport awd, but TRD pulled sale of the supercharger and doesn't offer it anymore
I read that the earlier V8's had stronger internals than newer V8's and that the newer V8s cant handle much more power than stock...something about the thickness of some internal parts getting thinner in the newer ones.

The 3UZ rods are really weak. You can get away with 400whp. Once you are passing this point, I suggest upgraded rods and pistons are in order. We are planning to release a s/c kit for 1uz and 3uz in 3 months. If you are push the envelop, The stroker kit is now on sale for 1uz, 2uz and 3uz.
