TRD/ Magnuson 4.0 Supercharger Tips, Tricks, and Mods

Well, got a new muffler that I have been wanting for a long time on the way as of this morning and will be taking my truck back to the exhaust shop to have new 2.5" piping installed in place of the 2 1/4" piping where the flagged at the y pipe ends.

I'm excited to hear how the truck will sound and feel how it will possibly pull harder after!

If anyone is interested in an Aero Turbine AT2525XL muffler. It will be for sale soon.

 

The sc oil could be leaking past an inner seal so when in vacuum the sc oil could be getting sucked into the the intake path and burned like pcv oil mist. You would never see the leak because it is internal and being consumed by the engine.
The mystery oil loss solved.

 

Move to CA when the i5 autobahn opens up.




(It won’t happen even though the bill has passed)

 

You really have to upload a video of the sound to us if you want a better shot at getting good help because at this point it is all pure speculation.

 

I would but I believe I'd be subject to many tickets from my mods. That exhaust ticket wouldn't be good.

 

I also loathe slow people in the fast lane!!! I almost personally take offense to it like the other driver is being disrespectful. I know most are just ignorant but still irks me bad!

 

I agree with you. I believe being ignorant while driving is disrespectful. Know the rules and be considerate of others.

 

One of the many reasons why an American autobahn won’t be successful.

I on the other hand don’t care. The only time I’m ever in the fast lane is when it’s raining. I usually just stay and draft big rigs if they aren’t pelting me with rocks. Not worth getting gray hairs just to get to my destination 2 minutes quicker.

 

Ignorance of disrespect is no excuse.

 

Me too, its the law after all, not so hard to get over if you dont want to speed

 

I just got a quote for new gears. Yikes. 1 month wait list and 2500 bucks.

 

You going 4.56s?

 

No. 410 or 430

 

I'd go 4.30s personally since you have an Auto and bigger tires

I have 4.10s with 265/65/17s and the truck will spin the tires in 3rd when merging on the hwy if i go WOT. The torque is incredible

 

456 is a maybe if I permanently commit to 35s.

 

Yeah. I think regearing would be a much enjoyed investment. 430 is my first choice. One mod I'd leave to professional guys for sure.

 

i wouldnt go 35s if it was me. 33s are perfect for these trucks. Dont require too much trimming/cutting, and they're a good bit lighter than 35s. I think 35s would be a performance killer, even if you have re-geared. Unsprung weight is the worst kind you can add to these trucks

 

You will absolutely love it. The truck will feel much peppier..

 

Agreed. When I bought it it had 20's with 35's ridge grapplers. 78lbs a tire
