TRD/ Magnuson 4.0 Supercharger Tips, Tricks, and Mods

i really..... enjoy making an M3 try to pass. its fun. today i sandblasted a 1st and 2nd gen on the fw. just cause i could.

 

Thats what I did as well. Sitting on 4.56 now. Should have went 4.88's. 37's we be bad ass but I drive it too much to mash around daily on 37's. Looking back on truck with smaller tires it just doesn't look right anymore. I debated maybe going to 285/75/17 which is a skinnier 34.

 

youre fine. stay there. i just gotta go bigger. according to her

 

lol Plenty of reason to go down a bit skinnier but I do like the bigger setup. Offroad they run awesome. At roughly 70lbs per tire plus the rest man you need gears and a s/c to get the truck moving. I can only imagine 37's but part of me really wants to jump all in.

 

Y’all just swing on by during the grand tour to Texas and we will start talking suspension. I’ll bolt on the wife’s 33’s and run y’all through the ringer of my performance goals. Heck I think @12TRDTacoma and I still have a wager over a beer for a standing 1/4 mile or something if I provided the track.

 

Planning to do quickchange pulley swap and a S/C rebuild. Is it any easier/harder to remove pulley from S/C while off truck? I was hoping I could do it off the truck since I am doing cam gears and butterfly adjustment at same time.

 

We do, but I'd have to pass on that wager until I can get my front end situation sorted out. I still haven't caged it yet, I'd still need a rental or something while I get the truck worked on.

I would do while it's on the truck. There's just too much leverage being applied to the blower while it is off the truck for you to effectively press in the qwikchange hub or any pull into the snout shaft.

 

Thanks, I was thinking that might be the case.

 

I second that. I just pulled mine and thought about doing it of the truck. Unless you can bolt that sucker down its in a good spot on the truck.

 

@Roostfactor , sounds like this is building up to be another TexFest....

 

anybody over here on east coast heading to Texas....

 

im running 35x10.5 tires. im able to spin them when turning. alot harder than my almost bald 35x12.5 MTRs i had before. those would spin just pulling out in traffic.

 

It can be done. Just need to find a few things to make it work. I saved that intake to use while mocking up the fuel rails.

I just wanted to join in on the smack talk. Lol I

I've been wanting to get up to the cinders again. It's been a long time.

And just gotta stay on top... Lol

 

Well it’s just about perfect camping weather now. Other than the fire restrictions

 

definitely. yeah its a bummer for sure already. Dying to go shoot and camp. We might try and head up that way within a couple weeks.

 

Hit me up and we’ll meet up if we can.
