TRD/ Magnuson 4.0 Supercharger Tips, Tricks, and Mods

Hmm is that muffler a lot quieter than the magnaflow the URD comes with?

 

Yes, it should be. It’s a turbo style that works the flow back and around internally. So it’s not straight through. Should reduce the noise considerably

Hmm I need to measure my magnaflow so I can replace it then

 

Thank you sir.

 

I didn’t have a great experience with the purchase from Stainless Works. Basically I sold it before I installed it because I had a burr in my saddle over it. This included shipping the muffler back to them at least twice and having to taking it a local shop to bump out the inlet and outlet to the proper diameter. Having said that, I still wish I had of at least tried installing it, just to hear it. I paid $350 buck for it too....hopefully @JuanitoBunito posts up some sound clips.
On a side note, I’ll be pulling out my keg muffler here in the next couple days. Love the muffler but it’s in the way of my upper link of my 3 link. Might have a slightly rock kissed keg muffler available if anyone on the west coast wants to try it.

 

I really just need to a quieter muffler than the one I have now. Added a resonater but it’s still loud and droney

 

Big fan of the Keg style muffler. Very quiet, but not silent even with long tubes and y pipes.

 

This stainless works muffler is much quieter than the magnaflow that comes with the URD mark lll. I’ll try and post clips once I get the rest of the stuff on.

 

You have a part number for that muffler or link?

 

I don’t but.... @DocME might

 

It was a custom order. Almost made to my specifications too.

 

Posted some gauges for sale.

 

So I installed NST light weight pullies. the bolt holes for the crank tool dont line up with the oem holes. So I had to just 6 uga uga with the impact. lol! Has anyone done the same? I just dont want to worry about the bolt coming loose.

 

I did 8 ugga duggas with red loctite to be safe

same torque spec as I use for axle nuts

 

i noticed a little oil seeping through, so i added a little honda bond as a seal. light coat between the two pullies.

 

Random pipe for the win!

 

Got any pictures of the issue or have you taken care of it already?

Honda Bond is some excellent silicone RTV. I like that stuff and is the only type of silicone I recommend.

 

No pics. I honestly did not think to take pics of it. It is back together now. But the two holes in the super charger crank pulley no line up with 2 of the holes for weight reduction in the NST crank pulley. I should have taken pics and sent them to NST for r&d improvement.

 

You mean where the dowel pin mates up to the crank dampner keyway?

It's supposed to be a tight fit if so. I took a small file and filed ever so gently to make it fit better in there without having to apply so much pressure to join the two.
