TRD/ Magnuson 4.0 Supercharger Tips, Tricks, and Mods

Agreed! Or an 8 rib like the engines accessory belt. So much stress could be relieved.

 

Stage 3 here.

 

If I didn't know he was a dog.... I'd swear he was a cat.

 

I think the top two idler pulleys don’t have much load on them at all. I say that cause when I check all my bearings those two were still completely packed with grease and I got over 95k on my SC. And it’s been spinning

I bet the more wrap the more load I guess

Now the tensioner pulley and idler next to the SC crank pulley. Those need repacking of grease every 30k especially when you got the smaller SC pulley’s. Just sayin

 

So how is your ice box working out?

 

if its 35* out and you're freeway cruising....maybe

 

Yeah much like the TVS blower setups you see on the modern Mustangs and Camaros! They run 8-10 rib which is wild but awesome!

I think the problem was our blowers were really an afterthought to the initial engine design... If they would had just designed and supplied us a thermostat housing which was cocked about 45 degrees to the left like they have on the Hiluxes..

Then again, if they would had just designed the supercharger in such a way where it was a straight through design and a totally redesigned intake of the OTR style to supplement the setup similar to Corvettes...

 

stage 3 controller for me sir

 

my complaint with the stage 3 is it's hard to read during daylight hours. the backlight contrast should be improved. otherwise I'm very happy with it. it's a very tight squeeze but it will fit on top of the column. custom gauge brackets line mine are required to do it.

 

Haven’t tried to ice it. But makes a nice over flow tank. I found it is going to be easy to just swap 2 lines so it will loop the ice tank right to the supercharger and back. For max cooling when iced. I can also just pack ice around it which will
Help. I really need to find some time to go to the drags and test it out.

 

It’s a DC sports intake. Same shit. The intake tube they use is tiny. Stock is 3.25” and the DC is 3”. I was thinking of getting a tube made that’s 3.5” that will work with my stock box. Now I want a fully custom box and tube that’s 3.5” all the way through.

Next weeks group buy: full NST pulley set but 8 rib

 

Be the first to get this one

but it's out of stock....

 

He’s waited all this time to get hooked on meth I think he can wait a bit longer

 

it's a buddy system.

 

sad is them marketing a product you can't buy. it looks sweet though. and complicated.

 

All this talk coming from the guy that got the Snow stage 2 controller

I seriously want to see the car that can make use of that controller. Who the heck needs 2 pumps, 32 solenoids, and quad tanks?

 

my point for not getting it. I have a 300psi pump. if I had a supra making 40lbs of boost life would be different.

 

Look at the pics here @Kelvin https://www.snowperformance.net/product-p/sno-70000.htm

The case looks identical. Same factory?
