    They are the original FMU parts that came with the gen 1 kits. Don't use it. Just connect the fuel pressure regulator top nipple to a boosted line and it will work better. Been running like this for years. There is a reason TRD quit including them with the S/C.

    How much does the URD 7th injector cost and how difficult is it to install?

    Check the URD website for price. (Its set in stone) and the installation is probably best to look over the instructions to personally see if it is something you can do or best to find someone to do it. As there is fuel line mods within/out the gas tank, ECU wiring splice and solder, wiring running routing, and then tunning. Far from plug and play....

    I found that modifying the nose support bracket like gadget did wouldn't fit with the dynamic tensioner setup.

    Have you run into that yet?

    I just did, i made my own tensioner mount and cut my pulley/nose support to fit i cut lowest spacer down an 1/8 so the plate mounts tighter against the motor and cut it enough clearance for the tensioner to travel its radius.
    Let me know if you want some pics

    Tensioner on with nose support plate modified to fit. I'll have it running later today, finishing vacuum lines, trans and throttle cable mount.

    Awesome info. I am running a 2nd gen S/C (black one) and intercooler on my 02 taco 4x4 auto trans. I've been seriously considering the URD 7th injector. In your opinions, is the URD 7th injector mod the best/most effective way to get the extra needed fuel? Does it come with everything you need to be able to tune it? Can you hook up a gauge to view tranni temps and boost? Also, I have heard a lot about the URD 2.2" pulley. Is this the "best" size to increase boost? What about the 2.1"? Lots of questions, I know. Thanks in advance hah.

    Well it is either the 7inj kit or water/meth injection, (search texas ace for info) lots to consider upon the type of use you are planning for it. Daily drive, hard or light off road, towing hauling. 2.2 seems the most commen and remember now you have to watch intake air temps so higher boost higher temps. And boost and trans temps would have to be from aftermarket gauges. I plan on running the 7th inj and 2.2

    Icon/TC Mid travel, TRD S/C, PNP Greddy EMU, 625cc injectors, 2.2 pulley, Hayden tranny cooler, AEM wideband, TRD boost gauge.
    BTW E85 is the sh*t. Even an E60 blend (in my tank right now) allows me to turn water/meth off, and completely zero out my timing retard- and lean out boost some. Pulls like a raped ape- I really need to do a before and after dyno, its just amazing... but then I have one of those hella pingy 5vzfes that require LOTS of timing pulled on pump gas so the effect for me may be more dramatic than to those who pull little to nothing for timing on their pump gas setups.

    I have a toggle switch wired to my AEM FIC's aux map switch input, so I have a 91 oct + water injection map, and a E60+ map.

    Well I hope you figured this one out, you need these for the gray supercharger,
    The fuel regulator is what you have and the fuel line that goes to the rail I believe,
    Would be better to replace the fuel line with a steel braided line. Fuel regulator
    you will need for the ping issue I believe. You can see the fuel regulator here on mine on the firewall. Been running this setup with zero ping issues at 5,000 feet.

    Add a K&N AIRFILTER, I don't think a stock filter was designed to have 10 pounds
    of boost being pushed through it.
    Add 2.1 pulley
    Add a funtional 4Runner hood scoop to cool off the charger,
    The air come in through the scoop and lines up directly onto the charger,
    Supercharger puts out a lot of heat, a great way to lower engine and supercharger temperature.

    Wow this thread has a lot of really good info. Wish I would have stumbled upon it sooner. Agree with @BlackSportD about the fic. I started with a s/c, then 2.2 and URD 7th, then 2.1 and meth and now I'm on a turbo with the fic6 and there's not really a comparison. The fic does everything while the 7th can only control timing and open loop fueling. Closed loop tuning is immensely important for an ecu that uses it for 90% of its driving conditions. Oh and did I mention the price? Under $400 for the fic while the 7th kit is $900. Install is a PITA though.

    Also @BlackSportD how is your fuel system holding up to the ethanol? Any leaks, etc? Did you upgrade any of it to compensate?
