Well, I can see your point of view. But when it comes to towing with the FJC how does the supercharger help you. Here in Indiana the max speed for a vehicle that is towing something (please feel free to correct me if I am wrong) behind it is 55mph regardless of the speed limit. Most towing setups suggest that you travel at 55mph for your (and everyone else's) safety.

Ya, I'm about to turn 36. I tell all the girls I'm 27, though.

I'd probably buy the supercharger if I had lots of money, but I don't. I need to choose what to buy wisely. As far as I'm concerned, the Cruiser has enough HP and Torque for my needs, so I'll just leave that part alone.

I do have my 75 Celica here, and a turbo sitting in my shop......

Just got the TRD supercharger last week. It's like an all new FJ before the 35" tires. It wasn't cheap but it was worth it. More torque and better gas mileage. I'm thinking about adding an E85 kit to it. I still need to do some more investigating though because it's $400 and I haven't heard of anyone adding one with a supercharger yet.
Thoughts?

What kind of gas mileage are you getting with the supercharger? I had the TRD supercharger on my old Taco and I didn't notice much of a difference in mileage.
