Default Status on TRD superchargers

I've been away from the forum for a while. What is the status on TRD supplying superchargers for new Tundras and Tacomas?

Default No mo.

From what I have been told, and thus far it is holding true... TRD was purchased by Toyota and now has to conform to stricter emissions standards. In addition, the 4.7L V8 S/C's gave TRD a black eye on the engines that were damaged. Lastly, automotive trends as of late are going AWAY from S/C and more to VVTi and VTEC and the like. Better emissions and MPG along w/more reliable and longer lasting engines. W/the $$$ of gas now, and in the long term, you sell more cars / trucks w/HIGHER mpg than HP. And, with the VVTi and VTEC and such, you HAVE higher HP and MPG as well.

That is what was explained to me!
