TRD/ Magnuson 4.0 Supercharger Tips, Tricks, and Mods

It's Bullshittery 101. You didn't take that elective in college? I was and am the professor of the class actually.

 

Lol. We did have to take that course actually, it was called Engineering English. Let's just say, it was a bit of an embarrassment to the profession.

I have missed our banter. One of the reasons I love this thread

 

too funny. makup you love birds.

 

Picked up a 2.5 pulley from a member to replace my 2.6. I THINK I remember trimming the snout back enough for future upgrades.. if not.. who's got the cutter available?

 

yours is trimmed for the hub, it will fit any pulley down to 2.5... I think you are good, You and I did the trim at the same time...

 

Yeah I thought we did. I couldn't remember though.

 

This *1000 . I had to use a 4 foot pipe on my breaker bar and a three foot pipe on a combination wrench with me and a buddy to get the thing broke loose.

 

Is the pillar mount for the '05-09 the same for '13-15, or will I have to modify it?

You may have to slightly modify it. I used a Dremel to round out the edges a little to have the gauges seat in perfectly.

 

Is the color adequate, or do I need to repaint it like this?

Could I run both these gauges? Im not sure how AFR gauges read the AFR so I don't know if I could run 3 sensors. Also does anyone have experience with these gauges are they good quality?

It's the same. Fit/finish varies a little.

+1. This was my experience as well.

Depends on the production batch and your level of OCD. Mine ended up being about a 90% match for both fit and finish, but some report less satisfactory results.

I strongly prefer pillar pod gauge mounts, so I was willing to "take a chance" on the "05-09" version. Unfortunately, YMMV.

 

Much appreciated.

 

What Travis said.

Yeah, You're good for the 2.5". I'm on the 2.5 and you used my cutter. Well, Technically it was Rob's first...

 

Yeah now its become the community whored out snout cutter. Lol. I'm glad it's getting it's good usage too.

 

In the trucking community, it would be known as a "lot lizard", just going from truck to truck

 

I remember seeing the deal go down here but I can't remember either. Lol.

 

I have no idea where it's at now. Forget who I sold it to.

 

ha shit. I pray for 14.7 mpg.

 

I have the afr/boost gauge and I have had no issues with it so far.
