Supercharged 5.7L V8 Toyota Tundra



Did you hear about the new TRD 5.7L V8 supercharger we just got in at Rice Toyota in Greensboro?

With the supercharger in place, the Tundra's horsepower output jumps from 381 hp @ 5,600 rpm to 504 hp at 5,500 rpm. Torque is multiplied from 401 lb/ft @ 3600 rpm to 550 lb/ft @ 4000 rpm.

Here’s what’s amazing – this whole system is still 50-state emissions legal! And, if it’s installed by an authorized Toyota dealer, such as Rice Toyota in Greensboro NC, the Tundra’s 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty remains intact, too. [If it’s installed by anyone else, the supercharger kit is covered by a 1-year/12,000-mile warranty.]

If you’re going to have that much power on tap, it only makes sense to beef up the brakes and add larger tires to handle the power. And these TRD components do the trick.

If you have a Tundra – think about a supercharger. Think real hard – the fun quotient is unbeatable. If you don’t have a Tundra… think about buying one and adding this combo of the supercharger, big brakes and big wheels and tires.
