Supercharged FJ Cruisers - Part 2 - Racing FJ Cruisers! 

Yoo thanks for all of your vids man! I have loved FJs since they came out when I was 3 years old. I finally got one just recently thanks to your videos. I am psyched and honored to be part this awesome community with all of you guys. And I get to flex my ride on the normies.

This video was awesome! I really want a super charger on my FJ now. I love the sound of his and wouldn’t mind a little extra power. Keep up the good work, your videos inspired me to buy an FJ. I couldn’t be happier with mine. Just put a 3” lift on her and it looks amazing

Great to see a face to the voice… mad love to all your content! The best FJ info live on the web! Thank you sir and don’t forget we’re all here sponging everything! Keep it FJ 🖤

Cheers from Australia. They are sort of a cult classic. They are either hated or loved. I recently drove mine up hill on the snow with the factory diff locker engaged. Blown away.

Finally got to see the TRD super charger in action. Waited 17 years. Thanks for fulfilling my wishes. My 2007 FJ with 260K also thanks you.

Instead of the Trd exhaust, I run a single Flowmaster dual chamber with single 3 inch exhaust, sounds much deeper and a little louder than the TRD exhaust great videos I’ve owned my 2007 FJ since 2010 has 225,000 miles other than maintenance items and running full synthetic lubrication in all the components I have never replaced so much as a bearing or sensor in over 200,000 miles. I have two other Toyotas in the FJ is hands-down, the most durable and lowest maintenance vehicle I have ever owned and it works every day pulling trailers and other trucks that gets stuck in the sand on the beach even living on the coast and it being in the sand. I keep it clean and it is rust. The clearcoat faded a little, but steel looks great I did also upgrade my brakes with all drilled and slotted rotors and cmax pads made a huge difference in stopping power. Keep up the great radios.

187k on my 2008 TT FJ with a dealer installed supercharger from 20k miles and its still going on strong!

Great video! I have a 2007 FJ 4x4 bought new. Always love the vehicle but like most just needed a little bit more power. Added a Magnuson supercharger with inter cooler and Bullydog tuner at 116000 miles and at 146000. Wirth it to me by far and adds a new level of fun!

Super cool and great presentation! When I drove through i70 over the rockies, I genuinely thought something is wrong with my FJ and expected a check engine light to come on anytime. I knew the high elevation will have this effect, but didn't expect to be this severe! A super charger would've been nice.

The other guys instrument cluster was like a Christmas tree! I consider all of those to be 'issues'!

You are the best. I will continue supporting even during my exams

Thanks, Craig. Great rig.

Thank you for covering the fuel economy topic I was really looking forward to that! Now I got some suggestions for next videos since you’re going all out, might as well cover this topic with all angles: Supercharger FJ vid 3: Your 2008 FJ vs 2010+ supercharged FJ (since they had about 20hp more over the stock 2008 models and the superchargers got more out of them). Supercharger FJ vid 4: Your 2008 FJ vs 2010+ supercharged 6spd FJ (same reasons as above but adding manual transmission into the mix). Thanks for all your effort, this is the best FJ channel on RU-vid hands down.

I'd like to see the same test with a stock and a re-geared FJ with 4.56 and 4.88 gears.

I have a 2007 fj cruiser with everything Trd, so it’s basically a trd without officially be big oneand it’s a base model manual. It is truly a holy grail car and I’m lucky to have it. I’m thinking about the supercharger because the car deserves to be treated and upgraded

Cool video! I have two FJs. One is a ‘14 and 100% stock. It’s my wife’s favorite. The other is an ‘08 and I have been modifying slowly. Maybe someday I’ll add a supercharger.

Great videos! Makes me think of some of your blue room write ups (assuming you are the same FJX2000 😉) I have a 2012 with the URD whipple S/C, 4.88 gears, headers and exhaust, intake and custom snorkel (bigger to eliminate restrictions) and on 37s. I will say I noticed a big difference crawling off-road as the torque is immediately there, very similar to a re-gear when I was on 35s with out the S/C. If you are in Colorado it would be fun to line all 3 up (yours, TRD/magnuson S/C, and mine). Also I am getting around 12-13MPG on the dash, which when you factor the tire size (or use GPS to track) is actually in the 15-16MPG range (as long as you are driving conservative lol. Keep it up with the great videos!👍

Another sweet video. Keep it up!

I have the same Baja rack!! Where did you purchase the decal on the rack? Looks amazing

That's very lit dashboard xD everything hurts that supercharged FJ also it is very strange to hear that it sounds like normal car reversing xD

Definitely plan to supercharge my FJ one day, my 2nd vehicle is supercharged, and it makes a significant amount of power over stock with only 6lbs of boost and gets slightly better fuel economy as well….. blowers are a win/win if you ask me!

6.4 sec 0-100 km/h, 15.0 sec same with 4400 lbs caravan trailer and 5 people in the FJ. 35” tires and 6M/T with stock gears. Supercharger rules! URD UCON, Speq-U headers, 2.85” pulley, Torque-U heavy flywheel and DW200 fuel pump helps a lot too.

Nice! Ur Subscriber from Philippines

Finally a face to the famous voice! Cool video !

Cool video , thank you

Danke schön

Thanks Craig!

Hi,Great Video,I purhased my 2007 FJ, 3 years ago ,with 235k on it,i have done the frame over ,installed new upper and lower control arms,new suspension,radiator,starter,alt,all new hoses,pulleys,hoses from power steering, pretty much went thru it as the prevoius owner lived on an island off of Newport Rhode Island.He told me the milage was high,do to daily drive from Newport to Boston,so mostly highway miles,never went off Road,But the salt did a job ,on alot of surface{,Rust}...Was able to grind it off at places i needed,applied rust restorer,then painted with por 15,then aplied fluid film...My brother and i ,have made it work,as i am 70 years old.We have a rented garage with a lift,which really helps.ANYHOW!!! My question is i found a TRD Intake on ebay,that fits my 2007,however,the two rubber red couplings were falling apart,my buddy works for a Toyota Dealer,in parts dept.The TRD kit for that year has been discontinued,so i opted to buy the new kit.I was able to make it fit,as it was a little different,my question is i keep getting a 2 lean codes Bank 1 and bank 2,I have a Scan Gage 3,installed,sittig on dash,where courtesy box is,so i have been able to delete codes {P0171-P0174},then they come back,daily...i;m thinking i want to put the old CAI back on,Do you have any suggestions...I would really appreciate it...Thanks again for all you do for us FJ Guys & Girls....

Awesome comparison!

Hayden, what size tires are you running and did you regear? Thanks.

This is a great video! Thank you for covering all of the aspects within the comparison. Also a big thanks to Craig for providing his FJ!

The TRD S/C FJ seems to be very down on power. Time for a tune up?

Nice video, it would be cool to add a fully stock FJ, no lift and stock bumpers. It would also be nice to add an FJ with the newer engine.

Hayden bro!!!! 👍🏾👍🏾👊🏾👊🏾💪🏾💪🏾 my 08 is 263000. Great Vid

Supercharged kept launching early but there's a big difference regardless

How much hp would a 276 hp. FJ get after adding a supercharger, do you have any experience with that? Talking about the Saudi version of the FJ.

Love his Sandstorm, I have the same without the sup…

Awesome content

The supercharger is extremely efficient. As long as you stay off the gas you will end up with better mileage.

A update on the pizza cutters would be a great video im stuck between 295 or 255 85

You ever get a check engine light come on for the MAF sensor and the cold air intake?

So for the hill climb test was there a reason that neither car was going to redline? Mine always goes to redline and sometimes a little past if I floor it (2010)

I have a performance air filter, but I think that because it s 6 speeds manual, it s a bit faster on starts than maybe both of those. I never clocked my 0 - 60, but I get there pretty quickly. it s a 2007, so it s not the engine, it s the transmission. it s a bit of a downer to see that the charger does nt even add 100 hp... I thought it would be a bit more. good work guys.

i think is very important for the fj with turbos install the oem oil cooler that come in the tacoma with tow package and the land cruiser...fj doesnt come with the oil cooler to make it cheaper but the engine originaly was designed with the oil cooler

Are they both on 93 octane fuel? I noticed the one without supercharger rev’d all the way to redline. I feel like the superchargered one had the check engine light on which wouldn’t allow it to run to redline but I’m unsure.

I have a stock 2022 FJ (Dubai). Love it but I didn’t buy it to push it to the extreme. Interesting video nonetheless..

Thanks 🥰😍😘😍😘🥰

Are all those warning lights on because of the supercharger mod ?

Noticed that the supercharged one was shifting at 4000 rpm between 1st and 2nd. 5000 rpm for the non supercharged

Gawd, i love Utah. Had it mostly to myself until i didn't. So fucking nice to have taken it for granted as long as i did. Drive this same stretch of road with my 1988 4RNR. V6 SR5. Had a dog with me. Got pulled over because watershed but also because UHP wanted to talk to me about my ride. #ITNOJCR

You could get the same or similar results re-tuning your transmission. Superchargers on these FJ’s and Taco’s only really are worth the cost if you have the manual transmission. The automatic on all model year FJ’s suck btw.

i clock my 07 fj no turbo in a flat and i had 8.7 s...yours is a lot slower , what could be the reason.....also i like you to compare the 07 single vvt to a dual vvt 2010

Now when I get my urd charger let's make a part 3 😁

❤❤❤❤

Most likely the Supercharged Fj was not getting full power with the check engine light on.

in Dubai the FJ 270 hp

Has the owner of the Supercharged FJ figured out why all the CELs?

I see the difference but what for? Just to go that much faster? However i had a RAV bevfore this FJ. This FJ seems like a rocket compared that dog. The RAV was good car but they aren't fast at all.

The question your mom has is… do YOU now want a supercharger??? 😁😁😁👏🏻👏🏻

I have Fj but what I so those 2 fj very low something wrong

I think it would just be cheaper to LS swap it rather than supercharging. 400hp from a bone stock 6 litre.

Supercharger needs more AIR!

The elevation is a big drawback for the non supercharged engine. At sea level the difference I bet is lesser.

They complain about AUTOMATIC FJ’s being underpowered. 6MT, baby.

Что "вещает" проффффесиАнал?

It doesn't built for racing, enjoy the off road ride, racing NEVER brought anything to anyone!

not worth it

The fjs do have the aerodynamics of the a rock, and that would explain the bad gas mileage

17 sec for 60’mph I wanted one okay I will just stay with my Jeep 🥹

Great Video! Gears specs?
