Lol. I did this. Except I used the powerlab kit. Then that guy did too but over in Germany. We were both on stock DE blocks. His grenaded shortly after. I put about 7K on mine then sold both kits and the car to buy the 370.

The whine was toned down a bunch by having the intake muffled through the turbo. But before that with the stage 4 pulley you could hear me coming from 4 blocks away with no exhaust note.

If GTM folds I can have the 4 brackets that mount the supercharger/alternator/power steering pump reproduced. If some one else can cover the intercooler and charge pipes. I also have canned tunes for the 1.0 and 1.5 setups. Last I would go the factory Rotrex pulley system. We can work with Underground Racing Development UDRUnderdog Racing Development - Toyota Truck Performance Parts and Accessories | Tundra, Tacoma, 4Runner, FJ Cruiser, Hilux, Land Cruiser | Superchargers, Clutches, Headers, Exhaust, Pulleys, Rotrex, Gauges, Intakes

I have had to use them when GTM did not help. See this post for more about that...Missing Boost

Pokeyl, are they able to produce the same pulleys that GTM used?
Trying to source an 88mm but want to make sure it will bolt up & line up correctly with what GTM designed. I know the standard rotrex pulley is a 4 bolt but GTM & other kits use 6 bolts for the pulleys.

I spoke with Phunk, depending on schedules & when my car goes under the knife for SC repairs I will be sending him my broken SC unit.
This way he can look at what GTM has done with their kit & then make changes as needed if he wishes to produce his own kit in the future.

JTran built me a custom pulley for my Stillen supercharger. I'm sure they could do the same for you. They just took my 3" as a template and made me a 2.5" that was identical.

I am thinking of having the car towed to them once I get some parts ordered & build time lined up.
Going e85 so will need a new tune done also (plus redo the 93), and running new fuel parts which I don't want to deal with.
