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.

Great for sensitive skin
This was great to take on vacation. I went to Cancun and used this on my face. Never got burned. I have super sensitive skin and this didn’t cause any reactions. I’m also sensitive to smells and I don’t notice anything with this product. Will purchase again.

Buyer beware!
Awful! I sprayed my face with it and immediately felt my skin burning. I opened the bottle and noticed all that was in it was a yellowish fluid that smelled like straight rubbing alcohol. My face still has marks on it days later from whatever the substance was. I have used this brand before, and never experienced anything like this. The product was either years past expiration, or liquid was replaced with some kind of chemical.

Worked well near the equator
Style: SPF 50
I bought this product because I was going to be in the field for a month, outside, every day, all day, in Tanzania at high altitude. A severe sunburn would be hard to treat in the remote area we were in, but also I am very careful about protecting my skin from aging. I had to have mineral based sunscreen because as a whitewater kayaker I know it’s the only truly water resistant kind and it was going to be sweaty. And since I knew I was going to be putting it on every day, and we didn’t have running water in the field (bucket showers only) I didn’t want it to feel gross. (I really wanted to try the spray but I didn’t want to put anything pressurized in my luggage.) And I had already discovered the Coola face sunscreen (30spf version) which had impressed me with how silky smooth and not greasy it is. Now this IS greasier because it is a higher SPF. BUT I think this product is as good as you’re going to get with the protection you’re getting. Like I said, I’m a white water tiger, so I have used a LOT of mineral sunscreens. This was hands down the most comfortable one I’ve used. And it was effective. I didn’t burn once—only time I did burn was when I forgot to put it on one day toward the end of the trip, when we were out for just a couple hours—and I got the first 2nd degree burn I’ve ever had in my life. That was what this stuff had protected me from, all day every day, the entire trip. I did tan a little but I think that was mostly from the few times I was not covered during short bouts or it was cloudy. For my face I used the Coola 50spf face product.
