    To the best of my knowledge, TRD is the only one that developed/manufactured a supercharged application. The TRD superchargers are no longer made, due to bearings failing and possibly other issues. You can still find some online that are used or rebuilt, and may still have a warranty.

    You can rebuild it with better bearings like I did mine. I have been trying to get my hands on a Rotrex S/C but no luck.

    I am not sure what the differences between the 2 kits. I think that the compressor mounting bracket is different also. I will get back to you on the bearings for a rebuild.
