UZ Vortech/Paxton Supercharger Bracket Kit “Tiger Shark”

The Adapt Lab “Tiger Shark” bracket aims to bring what the market has been missing for a while: A quality complete bracket kit to mount a Vortech/Paxton supercharger on your UZ engine. While many other kits are more expensive, more prone to heat soak and produce hp numbers that are lacking, this kit brings more value in a better package. Bolting onto all UZ engines from 1UZ non-vvti to 3UZ vvti, there is no way you will be left out.

Designed from the ground up for the highest belt wrap possible. Beating any previous or current supercharger setup available for the UZ family of engines. This kit achieves 220-240 degrees of belt wrap. This drastically reduces the possibility of slip which is not attainable with any other kit. No point in going with a setup that is doomed from the beginning, so we built in hard adjustment points to allow moving an idler closer to the supercharger pulley as the pulley gets smaller in highest boost setups.

Even with the high strength stainless steel bracket being 6lbs, we still achieve a roughly 25-27 lbs total weight with the bracket and the Vortech blower (Vortech V3 Si was used for the weight) making it the lightest supercharger kit offering ever. Being that this bracket mounts the blower low in reference to the engine, you can assure that the weight is well placed. We took care to precisely machine the spacers for the supercharger with an accuracy within .05 mm, we guarantee proper alignment with the rest of the drive system on the engine. This level of accuracy allows the idlers to be put closer to the supercharger pulley without causing weird loading that can cause the belt to come off.

Superchargers love longer runner lengths. This tends to be a point that does not get talked about enough. While many see longer runners better for low end power hurting peak performance, this is a benefit when paired to a supercharged engine. Why bring this up? The UZ family of engines has historically long runners on the intake manifold so an intake manifold change most likely is not necessary to reach your power goals when you choose a centrifugal supercharger. This allows you to spend money elsewhere where it is needed. If a top mount supercharger is used with an aftermarket intake manifold utilizing very short runners (typically under 3 inches) this will reduce overall power, force you to run more boost creating excess heat and most of these setups with the positive displacement blowers will not net over 400whp even with over 10 psi of boost. Positive displacement blowers also mount directly on top of the engine soaking up large amounts of heat while creating heat from the compression of the air. With a Vortech or Paxton supercharger the heat from the engine will not transfer into the head unit reducing heat soak. Less heat soak means lower intake air temperature for more efficient power. No compromises in performance are required when choosing this kit and the mounting is the simplest as well. All of the magic happens on the front of the engine so no need to remove the intake manifold, modify and cut coolant crossover pipes or mess with the fuel system either. It will require that you swap over to the proper fan clutch bracket but most engines already have the correct bracket from factory. The goal for this install is to get you from start to finish and driving in 48 hours. No cutting, welding or modifying the front water bridge required. No compromises in comfort either. This kit is A/C friendly.

All the components were made with A/C in mind (vvti engines may need to make a new a/c line to go around the supercharger bracket and head unit). If you are not running A/C all of the components will be provided for a non A/C setup. This is the best kit for supercharging your UZ engine. Long gone are the days of 20 year old blowers mounted on top of your engine. With a wide range of mountable blowers you can easily find the right blower to support your power goals. No need to break the bank either as this is the most cost effective form of boost beating even budget turbo setups. Light weight, no heat soak, high belt wrap, easy install, well priced, built with high quality components and precision makes the Adapt Lab solution the right solution.

  • Fits non-vvti 1UZ, 2UZ, and vvti 1UZ, 2UZ, 3UZ engines
  • ***This kit is to be used in the Lexus Sc400 or any vehicle where your UZ has more room in front of engine and no room on the side of the engine due to chassis constraints please use this bracket (Trucks and SUV’s with UZ engines most likely need this bracket). This specific kit allows you to low mount the blower and not have to move your oem fuse box in the SC400. You may still run into clearance issues with your radiator fans when creating an intake for the blower. Move your fans for best fitment. Battery relocation may be a possibility to accommodate the intake and the blowers volute.***
  • This bracket supports the following Vortech model superchargers: V1, V2, V3, V4, V7. MUST BE A COUNTERCLOCKWISE UNIT (CCW) this will not work with CW rotation blowers.
  • This bracket supports the following Paxton model superchargers: Novi 1200, Novi 1200SL, Novi 1220, Novi 1220SL, Novi 1500, Novi 1500SL, Novi 2200, Novi 2200SL, Novi 2200X. MUST BE A COUNTERCLOCKWISE       UNIT (CCW) this will not work with CW rotation blowers.
  • This kit includes the supercharger bracket, bracket spacers, blower spacers, studs, washers, nuts, pulleys, idlers and bolts.
  • Belt wrap will range between 220-240 degrees depending on pulley size and idler position (idler position matrix will be provided for best wrap on specific pulleys).
  • Requires the use of the fan clutch bracket. This supercharger kit will NOT bolt on with the hydraulic pump bracket found on some 1UZ engines. ***WE DO HAVE a drop down menu where you can purchase the necessary fan bracket and pulley required to bolt on this supercharger kit. Drop down menu can be found back at the top of the page.***
  • This kit supports usage with an A/C compressor or without it. ***Be advised*** Some vvti model vehicles have an a/c line that may interfere with the supercharger bracket itself. A custom a/c line may be required.
  • This kit is designed to be used with a 6-rib supercharger drive pulley. It can be used with an eight rib or ten rib pulleys but only in the smallest size (2.5-2.6 inch). There are some in-between sizes that may suit your boost target better, but we advise staying with the 6 rib pulleys. (https://vortechsuperchargers.com/products/copy-of-s-c-pulley-6- rib srsltid=AfmBOooHQJ6wmta8PHabQ4e2ceVtW- uFNKYsYS3lbRbr0FHgmUZH1z9x)
  • For the individuals running stock distributors, there is an additional bracket that can be purchased to properly hold the ignition coil since that bracket will have to be eliminated. We have a bracket for the MSD ignition coil #8226 which is a part of our kit for non vvti 1UZ engines and the Oem ignition coil as well. This can be found in a drop down menu at the top of the page.
  • Depending on pulley size this kit may require you to cut a relief on the engine’s cam covers. For the 1uz non vvti you will need to clearance the plastic lower and upper cam covers. For vvti engines you may either need to remove the metal cam cover to not hit the supercharger pulley or cut a relief for clearance. Attempting to use an 8 or 10 rib pulley will make this worse. If you plan on running more boost later (which requires a smaller pulley) I would advise not cutting the vvti cover as you may end up creating the clearance you need later.
  • The provided spacers MUST BE USED as instructed or you risk tossing the belt off and causing damage. The supplied Dorman idler pulleys MUST BE USED as well. These idlers were specifically selected as a control variable for belt alignment.
  • The supercharger pulley must be setup to where the ribs are closest to the blower. Incorrectly mounting the pulley will mean the ribs will not match the alignment of the engine when using the supercharger spacers.
  • SERPENTINE BELT SIZE: Belt size for this kit is ranging between 102-106 inches with the use of 2.87″-3.8″ pulleys (interpolate belt size if you are not using these pulley sizes). It is a good idea that you consider changing belt size to always have the shortest belt possible. The less belt there is the less belt there is to stretch.

Pack's Promise was okay but not great
Format: Kindle
Pack's Promise was okay but not great. I won't recommend it to anyone that I know. PRO: * Very likable characters * Lots of steamy scenes that are written very well * The spelling and grammar are good * The punctuation is good with the exception of using hyphens instead of commas. Lots of hyphens. Lots and lots of hyphens. CON: * Almost no interactions with any characters outside of Madison and the pack * Nearly no plot. They meet, get together for a heat, agree to make it permanent, done * Quite a few typos such as extraneous words, missing words and words out of order THINGS TO KNOW: * More steamy scenes than storytelling * A lot of MM & MMM, some MFMM during heat

Fluffy and Nice Omegaverse
Format: Kindle
… this would have made 5 stars but for 2 reasons. A.) there were quite a few typos; misspelled words, missing quotations, “the his” mistakes, and various signs that maybe a proofread would do good. B.) the writing was quite textbook. Late blooming omega is struggling with her new self, finds a absurdly wealthy pack of alphas, every thing is almost insta-love but she resists, then decides to love herself and let everyone be happy. Rian was my favourite (obviously the author’s favourite too because he got the most page time) but I wish we could see more of his CEO side? He went to work maybe ONCE the entire time. Gray was supposed to be the “growly one” but he turned out to be puppy dog. Lucas was a genius brainiac doctor - but also super alpha with an aggressive hindbrain with a breeding k*nk?? And then there was no actual “breeding”?? Spice 3/5 - normally omegaverse books are super high on messy smut but this was tamer. Romance 3/5 - insta-love that was then resisted because of personal hangup’s Plot 2/5 - weird paced head hopping, showing the same scene from different POV’s that made me feel like it was 2 steps backward, 1 step forward. Humour 4/5 - there were a dozen lines that genuinely made me chuckle out loud Would have been five stars but the lack of proofreading and the predictable plot made me unable to get up to ADORED IT level - four stars is still and official ENJOYED IT, y’all. This isn’t a bad rating. The “Club Heat” has intriguing possibilities so I’m going to give the second one a shot.

AMAZING debut novel!!!
Format: Kindle
Plot ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Spice 🌶️🌶️.5 Romance 💘💘💘 Vibes ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Dual 1st person POV - Ara (26) & Rogue (39 - but looks mid-20s: they can live hundreds of years so this isn't that large of a gap as it could've been which I heavily appreciate lol) Tropes: enemies to lovers, fae/human wars (deep hatred for each other), shifters (dragons- MMC can only partial shift with wings), one horse, one bed, touch her and d!e, found family, abduction turned to freedom The Last Storm is the debut novel from JD Linton and let me tell you, you guys NEED to read this. The plot was engaging and the editing was was amazing (especially for a debut novel). Our FMC, Ara, is stuck in her gilded cage longing for a life outside of her small town. She uses her books to escape and live vicariously through the pages (honestly, relatable). After her father announces her betrothal to her childhood friend (to whom she has no romantic feelings for), Ara tumbles unknowingly into a desperate plot trying to stop the humans from slaughtering the Fae. As one can expect from an enemies to lovers / kidnapper/captive romance, Ara fights her attraction and lust towards our MMC, Rogue (the King of the Fae), for as long as she can. Upon seeing Ara for the first time, Rogue is instantly aware that she is his fated mate (not a spoiler). Since she is the General's only daughter, he plans to abduct her and use her as leverage to stop the brutality. During Ara's time in Rogue's captivity, their banter and chemistry continue to rise until they finally boil over and come together (quite literally, and many times I may add 😉). Here's what I LOVED: - Rogue continuously seeks advice from his elders and deeply respects their opinions and life experience and tries to implement their recommendations - Rogue makes many mistakes in the beginning but we see him actively work on not repeating them as the book progresses. The level of self-awareness and his ability to change his behavior was impressive - The magic system is intricate and we have only scraped the surface. As the series continues and Ara progresses in her powers, I'm sure we'll get to see more of this. I absolutely LOVE the messaging system that is used in this book. - Ara's struggles are so human and so raw. She is experiencing so much guilt and pain and hurt and getting to see her work through each of these emotions is inspiring. Especially as her and Rogue get closer and she learns she can lean on him as well, that she is not alone. - While this is the start of a series, there is NO cliffhanger! There's a bit of a teaser of something major that is going to happen at the start of the next book, but it's not a cliffhanger in the sense that we aren't sure if someone is going to live or d!e or if they'll be separated. For that, I am very thankful! This book was so much fun that I will definitely be returning to book 2, even if it takes several months (or longer since this is an debut author) to publish! - Lastly, the cover is GORGEOUS! And I love the title! I'll copy a few of my favorite quotes below so you can have a little taste of the author's writing and the world she's cultivated. 😊 Top Highlights from The Last Storm On days like this, when my heart was heavy and my mind clouded, I resorted to books— to escape, to forget, to find freedom where I had none. If I were to marry him, my face would always be turned to the window, searching for more, and if not that, I would be a shell of the person I am now. I stepped back to admire her, thr0bbing at the sight. She was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen. To ever exist. Nothing, no one, had ever deserved to be worshiped more. All men should be made to kneel before her. But she would have to settle for me. The taste of her met my t0ngue as my scent merged with hers, forever branding her. Mine. I l!cked the wound. Hers. Completely and utterly hers. I didn’t claim her in ownership. I claimed her as my one. Devoted myself to one. With that mark, my body and soul were bound to her. I would never be with anyone else, emotionally or physically. It would be her or no one, until my last breath. “Scream my name. Let everyone know who I belong to.” I had never really cared about the weather before, but now, clear skies meant everything to me, and I was grateful to see another calm morning. “There will never be another woman for me.” He paused. “Ever.” I stilled at his words. “What… Why?” “This”— his thumb slid down across the mark—“ is a symbol of… surrender. I know you believe that it was my claim upon you, but it wasn’t. It never was. I bound my body and soul to you, little storm.” “I also know that it is more than this tiny, insignificant mark on your skin that binds me to you. It’s you. All of you. Your strength and resilience. Your determination to endure no matter what fate throws at you. Your love for love and stories and hope. You are entirely the opposite of everything that I am and I would gladly wear your shackles if it meant I could have you.” My mate. Mine. And then everything shifted and I understood. I understood everything. The surrender. The deep, soul-craving longing. Bound. I was bound to him. Body and soul. Entirely his. “I would’ve waited forever,” he whispered back, understanding. Seriously, everyone.. add this to your TBR!!

A Decent Fae Romance
Format: Kindle
** 3.5 Stars rounded up to 4 ** First off I want to say that I found the author, J. D. Linton, on TikTok right before the release of the sequel. I bought the first 2 books to support her release, so congrats to her for the release of the sequel! Overall, I liked the story & plot, I liked the characters, and I liked the spice. The downfalls: not enough development between the characters for the romance, and it leaned a little heavy into the tropes. A lot of stuff is told to you, which could have been used as devices to drive the plot and emotions of the characters. 🛑🛑 Mild Spoilers ahead, I tried to hide the obvious ones 🛑🛑 This is very obviously a fated mates, which is a trope I usually really enjoy. But I wish the relationship between Ara & Rogue had much more development before it's realized that they're mates, instead of Rogue knowing almost immediately and using it for nefarious purposes (at least in the beginning before they get to know each other). By revealing this within the first quarter of the book, I feel like it leaves less room for them to fall for each other organically (albeit with help from the mating bond) and they love each other because of the mating bond. I was disappointed as soon as Rogue know (literally only 5% in) and I literally made a note: "As much as II love a good mating trope, I wish we had to work for it a little more. Where's the fun in just telling us?" I believe that by holding out and feeding the reader snippets of a potential bond, it would've been more rewarding as a reader. I also wish there was more world building - we are told of a war between human & fae but don't get to really experience any of it. Ara is sheltered in her human home, then sheltered in Rogue's castle. There's bits and pieces about what the war has done on either side - but we're more told of the aftermath and don't really experience any of it. Ara's father is supposed to be the king's #1 general - yet he is at home with his family & with Ara for the first couple chapters. Her, her family, nor her village seem to be affected by the 10 year war going on on their borders. I wish there was a little more setup to make this conflict - an actual war - feel more than a skirmish between fighting territories. Linton could also be a little repetitive - with the biggest culprit being when Ara is upset she "brings [her] knees to [her] chest]" and either sits like that or cries. Every time she is upset this phrase is mentioned. I would get it if this was her crutch, or how she copes with grief and stress, but that should be explained why she does it so often or it becomes repetitive. I started to get annoyed with how often she would sit like this solely because it happens every couple chapters. However, I did really like the spice. I love an enemies to lovers trope, especially when it results in spicy scenes. The spicy scenes weren't anything new, but they were fun. Wish there were more but that could also just be me - there is no such thing as too much spice 😂 Would I read again? Probably not, I'm super picky with rereads. Although I did genuinely enjoy my first read through! Will I continue the series? Probably, at least for the sequel. As for #3, kind of depends on where I am with my TBR once that is released All in all an enjoyable, fast paced read
