Will a Supercharger of an old 4agze fit on to my 1MZ-FE easily or will i need to buy the TRD 1MZ-FE supercharger ?

Ahem 4agze is a 4 Cylinder car... 1MZ-FE is a V6.. I'll let you do the rest of the thinking there

ah hem...what difference does it make?

supercharger has nothing to do with number of cylinders, neither does turbo. turbo you just need the right manifold. turbo will bolt to anything.

Trick is, that 4AGZE is a 1.6l your 1MVZE is a 3.~L, its WAY too small to do any good, even if you could get it intalled. It wouldnt be a bolt up application by any means, nor would it do anything except rob you of hp.

you cant cheap out on this one, its TRD or some major custom work on another.

I was only using the 4agze as an example as it is the only engine code that has a SC, but it dosnt matter now as it looks like i will have to buy the TRD charger any ways.

The difference is the way the S/C hooks onto both engines... have you seen the TRD supercharger for the 1MZ? Installing a turbo is completely diff. from a Supercharger....

If you hooked up the 4AGZE S/C to the 1MZ.. tell what you would do about the 2 cylinders not being fed air?

Am I missing something? is the 4AGZE S/C centrifugal or something? even then.. you still need the TRD Roots type blower for the 1MZ

chronoti · 07-24-2005, 02:35 PM

erm ........

the 4agze is centrifugal. it's has a clutch too so you can apply boost when you need it as well.

4 vs. 6 in this set up dont mean anything. 1.6l vs. 3.0l means more. when that super would normaly offer 8lbs of boost you only have around 3~4lb of actual boost then.

so if he found one in a junk yard and hooked it up it will work and he will get results just wount be as diffrent as if it was a 4a-ge vs 4a-gze.

If any of you guys know off the top of your head. How much would a new TRD supercharger be for a 96 V6? I just sold my lude and now i wanna do a supercharged camry. When you buy the TRD charger, do you get any sort of FMU or tuning map? What kinda power does it put to the ground and is it reliable? Thx

and your saying that if he did a turbo on a 6 cylander with the mani off a 4 cylander that his shit will work? Ill give you a million bucks the day that works lol. never.

Ruffrydasean · 07-24-2005, 03:38 PM

OK.. good we're getting somewhere... now.. you look around on the boards because it has been discussed before.. where are you going to mount the centrifugal supercharger? It's going to take alot of money to custom mount this type of supercharger... It's possible... but you'd either be better off getting the TRD Roots blower or custom fabricating a turbo set up.

Have fun reading

O yea.. and they don't make the TRD blower for the gen 3, someone has sorta custom mounted the gen 4 S/C onto theirs before though.. i'm searching around for it now...

WestCoastff · 07-24-2005, 05:27 PM

TRD Roots blower... what is this? sorry man i dont know much about TRd products, but i wanna learn. Explain a little bit about it to me will you?

Ranger X · 07-24-2005, 10:02 PM

Roots is a type of S/C, more commonly called a blower. Here's some good info:

TRD means Toyota Racing Development and is exactly what its name suggests. Apparently they aren't doing so hot right now, though. Also, I didn't want to start a whole new topic, but I have a question. For those who have the TRD S/C, would you say it's worth all that money? Does it suck gas a lot more than NA? I'm trying to decide what I should do with my car. Either start building up the motor and eventually buy a supercharger, or sell it and buy something that's more mod-friendly. Also, I don't want my car to be a quarter-mile queen, I'd drive it daily and look for power on the low end, too. I love my car, but let's face it. It's getting old, and if I were to start modding the engine now, it'd be a lot more work. What do you guys think?

dthepit · 07-24-2005, 10:28 PM

the TRD supercharger is meant specifically for the 3.0 liter 1mz, it replaces the stock intake manifold, so it will only fit on the v6 engine.

Ruffrydasean · 07-24-2005, 11:08 PM

thank you, He's trying to say that the centrifugal Supercharger for the 4 Cylinder 4AGZE will work with the 1MZ.. which i have been refuting the whole time

BTW my car is 2 years older than you, and hasn't given any trouble that I haven't caused myself

Alright so I'm no forced induction expert, but come on. It replaces the stock intake plenum, right? So the air is still going to the same place. In other words, all the cylinders. It doesn't matter how many cylinders the motor has. However, the supercharger for the 4agze won't work for the 1mz, simply because A) it's too small to do anything and B) it wouldn't bolt on anyway. All that has been said already but the argument is still going for some reason.
