TRD/ Magnuson 4.0 Supercharger Tips, Tricks, and Mods

Correct.

 

That's really easy. You obtain the sensor resistance first and then buy a breakout GM IAT sensor and pigtail harness and test to see if it matches if it does, plumb it in and then get the grommet that is required to run the sensor on the intake. Easy peasy.

 

But u have to get it to match. Or the temp will be off

 

Get what to match, the resistance?

 

Had a nice first drive after initial install of the beefcake tensioner this morning. Found no notable differences per se, but I wasn't hammering it everywhere either. 21-22 in. hg. at idle unloaded. About 19 in. hg. In drive gear. Nice.

 

Yeah or else the temp will be off

 

That's why I said. Check the resistance of the Toyota IAT and then get a GM breakout IAT then compare the resistance. They cost peanuts worth of money. Since Toyota and GM are in bed (apparently Ford as well) the sensors should be the same or have the same resistance.

 

@12TRDTacoma, that maf sensor # you gave me the other day was for a dorman resivoir. Can you tell me what maf # I need please? Going to buy one shortly. Gotta fix how this truck is running.

 

@o0opackersfano0o Being a Toyota tech, you’ve probably already looked this, but just in case you haven’t.

This is from the 2005 manual. Not sure if later years are different. But this is what you’d want to replicate.

Shit. I'm so sorry I was way the hell off there. Hahaha.

$86 197-6030 Mass Air Flow Sensor

197-6030 Denso

There will be a 603 printed at the top of the physical sensor itself.

 

Thanks. These vary so much in price I've seen. What did you pay for yours?

 

Nice!!! I'm all jealous now. Steeda tensioner seems so far away...

I have removed my mechanical fan and clutch and gone with e-fan. By your previous pictures, the Steeda I have in the mail will fit, however if someone have the belt driven fan, Steeda won't work.

 

That's not good news for me at all. Guess I shouldn't have ordered mine.

 

Sorry to be the bad messenger.

 

Ya I saw that yesterday lol. Thanks tho.

 

That's ok. The only mod I've accomplished without grief has been floor mats so far.

 

Just want to say that I am very interested in this if we can pull it off. I will see if I can find anything to help you, because if we had a proper iat sensor this would be major for helping tune these motors as well.

 

I dont know, like 50 something, but it will vary. That's like the equal to buying bottled water at Safeway for .80 vs buying it at a ball game for $5.89. Lol.

You should not say that until you put it on. The Steeda should be no different than mine in thickness. Tensioner arm height is determined by belt taughtness, therefore if the belt is too tight on clutch fan driven setups there will be interference at the tensioner arm from the fan clutch.

It's not an issue of tensioner arm thickness, it's an issue of determined height at final rest.

 

That quote really needs to be in my signature.

 

Or maybe you need an e-fan
