TRD's New
Tundra Supercharger in Action

"The truck with the s/c at highway speeds just pulls and pulls and goes from 60 to 90 in seconds.
I will have to see how it does with in town driving but that will be very hard to keep my foot out of it at every traffic light. "

Wow!!  It just keeps pullin' . . .There is just no lettin' up on it.

"Can you imagine how hard a 4wd will launch with this thing on it...........geeezzz........."

. . . too much fun . . .

   On the way down to Myrtle Beach the truck averaged 16.8 overall.
    On Marks tip we drove the truck in the sport mode with it in 6th gear to help eliminate the truck downshifting as much.
    When we left Myrtle Beach the truck was getting around 18.8 mpg.  As we got into the mountains going towards Asheville it dropped down to 17.8. Driving thru Kentucky the average went back up to 18.2.  A stop in Ohio for gas and a few 0 to 60 or so runs the average dropped back to 18 mpg. As we go into flatter areas the average began to go way back up with an ending average of 18.5 mpg.
    The truck with the s/c at highway speeds just pulls and pulls and goes from 60 to 90 in seconds.

The Tundra Meet was a blast, but it is time to head back home.

From Pete:

Hey Mark, Jamie and the Sparks Crew,

I just got back home with the Tundra. We drove 1045 miles in 17hrs with the s/c. We didn't want to get outta the truck and decided to drive straight thru. The truck is unbelievable on the highway! Going thru the mountains near Asheville the truck went from 60 to 90 in the length of a semi. The mileage is even better on the highway than before. I will post details on that later when I get some sleep. Its 3am here and Im beat. Thanks again Mark, Jamie, Jim, Brock, and the Sparks Girls you were great!!!!!!!!!
