Default Quick ??

I'm searching here and can't find a answer. I have a 2010 Tc 5 speed I wanted to know if the TRD s/c is compatible with my yr or what I would need
To get it to work? Does any other manufacturer make s/c for the tc?

Your search was successful. They do not make one for a 2010. Don't bother with supercharging it. Go turbo and don't look back. Just ask some supercharger owners how they fair against turbo owners. You'll see who's happier...

I would choose the reliability of a well put together turbo kit from Ptuning,Dezod, or World before that supercharger.

There is plenty of info on here about what you will need to complete your s/c kit. Make sure you have it rebuilt, along with getting the improved brackets. You will need: the supercharger, the serpentine belt, 410 or 440cc injectors, intake piping with a 07-10 MAF flange, the charge pipe from the supercharger to throttle body, updated mounting brackets, a bypass valve or recirculating blow off valve of your choice, oil feed and return lines, a tapped oil pan, and the TRD reflash. Call around at your nearest toyota/scion dealerships to find out if they still do the reflash. There are also people on here who reflash ecu's.

The intake and charge piping cab be made yourself, but can be found from some used kits. Male sure the diameter of the MAF pipe is 2.5inches if you decide to make one yourself. This is a must for accurate airflow readings.

I have no clue about inspection but as far as a DD you would be fine under 10 psi. I know the descendant kit comes with a 6 or 8 psi spring and id say you could drive it all the time. Its the kit I have but I pulled out that spring and replaced with 10 psi. And I DD mine but im sure ill break it eventually...

There's full turbo kits on here enough at a good price. I would recommend that route. It'd be at a pretty good price and once you get the kit on you can always upgrade

my mechanic 1slowtc thinks a little under 300. I have the upgraded gtk450 from descendant but my midpipe is stock so im kinda restricted. Haven't done exhaust yet. I wanted a ball bearing turbo so i went with the 450. It hits full boost around 3500 right now but itd be earlier if i had a decent exhaust. Still averaging 22mpg usually. I do alot of highway so its usually alot of cruising. But when I stomp on it everyone is surprised how much is there...

I guess you could say that. Full throttle stock is like 1/4 throttle now. Its a completely different car. But yeah from 3200 up is nuts if your coming from stock....
