TRD/ Magnuson 4.0 Supercharger Tips, Tricks, and Mods

Ive tried screw drivers, tweezers, and finger nails. Had two different people help me out with extra hands. These wont budge. Any advice is appreciated

 

93, no AFRs, no other mods but the fuel pump currently. I'm pretty sure it's just a shit ass tune, can't think of anything else that'd be making it run this lean.

 

That wont cause permanent damage? Serious question, I dont know.

 

It will if it knocks long enough I'm sure. It's fine at partial throttle and below 4k, so I'm just driving it nicely until my tuner shows up.

 

Sweet jesus. At least it is drivable now though.

Does the power fall off after 4k?

 

Good heavens, is that reservoir actually $375?

 

Thats what im sayin

 

It used to, it doesn't anymore.

 

Damn

Did you get the ECU swapped out?

 

Whats your setup? TRD ECU plus UCON?

 

No its sitting on my counter until I think of something else. My electrical connections that have been submerged in water and mud are easier to take apart

 

Yes.

 

Spray a litte WD40 in there. I do it all day working on VWs. F**kn connectors can be a beach sometimes.

 

Ok. It wont damage components it it leaks somewhere?

 

I was asking @omgwtfbbq! I know yours is TRD (for the moment)

 

Oops

 

I wish it was TRD. I have the Magnuson/Bully Dog tune. I didn't do my due diligence and thought maggie was giving me the TRD flash. Nope.

 

Don't go crazy with it. You have the WD40 can with the little straw on it? Just give it a light squirt on the side where the clip is, don't hose it down.

 

Ok. Ill be extremely conservative

 

I'm seriously wondering if your chain tensioner is causing chain slap at higher RPM's. How many miles on your engine and

$9 IKH22 Iridium Power Spark Plug, (Pack of 1)

IKH22 or 24 plugs again?

No.

Not to be a cock here, but which way are you moving the release tabs on those connectors?
