Oh No! SuperCharger Installed :)

[thumbster]

There has to be some kind if software to calculate this. If someone knew the drag coefficient of a Tundra and plugged in the power figures combined with the weight and rolling resistance, you should be able to come close to the capable top speed.

Eh, as long as it doesn't top out during the quarter mile, I am good.

any updates ?

For those of you that don't understand wind resistance, get in the bed of your Tundra and crouch down behind the cab. Have someone else drive you down the highway at 65mph, now stand up in the middle of the bed...try not to fall out.

i'll do it if i am wearing my One peice Motorcycle suit with my Helmet

i think you're aware of wind resistance, just by having that gear =) Though it WOULD look funny to see a guy in a 1pc standing in the back of the truck...

"look, i'm safe!"

Then start dancing in your suit (a-la two wheel freaks ad where the guy starts dancing to cotton eye joe in his 1pc/smoked visor)

I take the video...ah crap, we should really stay on topic.
I know, I'm just as guilty in this thread.

you mean something like this and yea i have tried it
It's sad there is a limitor on the Tundra in the first place but there are a few sportbikes with them too.

Wow almost missed this thread because the title didn't mention the supercharger lol. Thanks a lot for the info man!

Which suit protects best?

[THUNDERA]

Is there any way the OP can post the dyno charts?

ah you know the aneswer to that question wile the Spiderman suit is ideal for con's /event's the one peice protect's my skin and better suited on that application.

what is the current progress on having a video with a top above top speed with the S/c installed. Mark(Sparks Toyota) do you have any plan's to over ride the speed limitor and produce a S/C 5.7 with speed in mind?

Anyone wanna give it a try?
Double Cab
Weight = 5705
Drag C0. = 0.37
Frontal Area = 38.5 sq/ft (estimated)
Drivetrain = 3.33,1.96,1.35,1.00,0.73,0.59
Axle Ratio = 4.3
Tire = 255/70/18

Just plug in your dyno graph (available off google search)

My Stock top speed = 133mph (drag limited)
Modified = 149mph (drag limited, if pushing 460lb/ft torque to wheels)
Theoretical = 225mph (if drag is not part of equation)

btw - you would need 1000lb/ft torque just to hit 200mph

This sounds right.

To get somewhat back on topic as mxsjw sorta suggested, do we KNOW the coefficent of drag on the new Tundras?

[dadriva]

Thanks for the info here. Any 1/4 mile numbers and what about MPG's?

[tinik]

here you guys go
