Kazuma, TRD S/C or etc...same exact thing. Kazuma was only a product line name that TRD introduced then later dropped it to just TRD Sport Parts.

sounds stupid but how long does the charger usually last?

No one has broke it yet I think.
so as long as the engine life I suppose.

Actually, that's not a stupid question, at all. Toyota is now providing a warranty for the superchargers that will last as long as your power train warranty is in effect. That says that they expect them to last up to 5 years. I haven't heard of anyone's supercharger falling apart on them, but then they haven't been around all that long. I know of a few people who have gone to smaller pulleys and had problems with their engines due to too much boost, but I don't think that the s/c, itself failed. Ryan (Flipside909) might have more info on this.

That's really hard to tell. Indefinitely if you do maintenance to the s/c itself. Magnuson has an s/c oil refill kit or some sort of maintenance product for the units it produces.

what kind of maintenence does the s/c require?
