TRD/ Magnuson 4.0 Supercharger Tips, Tricks, and Mods

Is it worth getting titanium ceramic coating or just going with silver metallic? Its CA so I am likely going to get some shorty's and weld the cats back on. Found a spot thanks to @SUMOTNK that seems reasonable to do the work. JBA shorty's are the only options and there are 3 options. I figured just go all in but the titanium vs silver ceramic is a $200 difference.

yah who knows maybe they are quicker now. Just make sure you have a dremel handy. Mine mostly fit but I need to re do it as my handles never fit right but it works.

 

I'm just commenting to admire the username. It makes me laugh.

 

I am in the middle of going through that. My truck looks like a war zone. No interior, no seats, all my paneling is removed for the most part.

 

Do you know why they call me Smokehouse Rob?

 

Time to start figuring a way to get the GM TOB in there.

 

From one Rob to another, enlighten me. Hahaha.

 

Details? Hydro-bearing or linkage driven with slave? Proven reliability? Probably more than one GM TOB I'm guessing.

 

He either smokes the ganja, food or both like a mutha

 

The GM TOB that is used for the T56 or Magnum. Like these.

I have the OEM GM one closer to the Holly style.

The Centerforce one, is very similar to the one in the URD kit.

 

I don’t do either so that was just a wild guess haha. But agreed

 

Thanks! Will investigate further but I am somewhat skeptical of hydraulic throwouts now. Not sure about Canadian winters being a factor as well. The more I research the more I find issues with leaking for almost every brand and they all seem hit or miss for if it ends up reliable. And its not quick to deal with when they do shit the bed.

 

Seems implied with the name lol.

Maybe he does burnouts all the time.

Maybe he burns his food when he cooks.

What other reasons could there be?

 

Silly diesel guy with a roll coal tune?

 

Just a reminder, about 2 months out. Hoping for a rough track since if my truck is even ready in time it will only be 2wd. Still up for the challenge if anyone comes out. Weather should be perfect for camping and having a little Tacoma takeover.

 

You're all wrong, they call me Smokehouse because I've got a lot of meat hanging.

 

So you are a smoker/bbq'er!

 

@BillDaCat8 put a Tilton hydro bearing in his.
