Anyone know if Toyota has made a response yet to the growing problems surfacing with their TRD supercharger for the tC? I'm hoping this ends in a better made product and a recall. It seems that if a header over heats the supercharger causing leaks and failures, a S/C over the OEM manifold and heat shield wouldn't be far behind. Guess they didn't conduct very good thermal stress tests.

 

You're preaching to the chior. You left out all the other problems not to mension that some poeple like me even warped the seal with a stock header and heat shield.

 

I've got about 13k on the car and 10k on the supercharger and no problems yet.
Jaski lives in Beaverton. Uh huh huh huh...cool...huh huh huh.

 

I just wanted to know if anyone has seen or heard any response from Toyota yet on the issue.

And in Beaverton, we have a Hooters... huh huh, beavers...hooters...huh huh...

 

So far they've only been replacing the defective Superchargers and have not done much or anything at all about permanent fixes.

 

Well they have stopped selling new ones as well. But this might be in conjunction with the 07 tC engine differences.

 

You will soon come to the dark side
