I had the V6 supercharger on my old 2001 Tacoma. My s/c didn't ping at all except in a high gear/low rpm situation. I've found that people expect the s/c to perform 110% perfect all the time. Not going to happen. I used premium fuel, ran the stock s/c, avoided high gear/low rpm, and my charger ran like a champ. Many forums I've read in the past have always speculated about the 3.4L s/c getting an extra injector. My only question would be this. Why would TRD spend the extra time re-developing the 3.4L s/c when the 4runner and eventually the Tacoma will be going to the new 4.0L? I'll speculate that the 3.4L s/c stays the same and TRD develops a s/c for the 4.0L with an extra injector. Who knows? Doesn't matter anymore to me because I have a V8 now.
