All,
I was wanting your insight into my latest conundrum regarding my 3gen 4runner. I have noticed that towing my Outlaner Sherpa II through Kansas is manageable, however, towing this through the Ozarks is a different story. The V6 just didn't have the muscle to power up the hills. So I have been contemplating several options at this point...
1) Install the TRD supercharger along with the URD 7th injector system into my 4runner with 155,000 miles...:smiley_drive:
2) Hijack my wife's '04 Sequoia (iForce V8) and get her another vehicle...She is still very content with this rig and absolutely loves it...:Wow1:
3) Buy an newer 4thgen 4runner for myself with a 4 liter V6 and be done with it...:drool:
both options 2 and 3 would be the most expensive considering the need to 'properly' equip said rigs with Armorology bumpers, lifts, lights...you get the idea...
My question to you all is this: Is the TRD supercharger / URD 7th injection system a legitimate option? Or is this just a 'ricer/rich kid' mod wraught with constant adjustments and attention following the install?
I keep telling myself 'if only my 4runner had about 220 horses'...In my estimation, Option 1 would get me there with the least amount of money invested.
One caveat...We are going to be a family of 4 soon!
Please discuss and many thanks for everyone's insight...

BWJ
