Another coil option maybe?

 

Double check the length with the retailer. Someone on the FJ forums ordered a set and said they were too long.

 

Single vvti or dual?

 

He had a 2010 dual vvti. They were advertised 07-15 but they didn't fit his dual. My apologies. He mentioned they were 1" too short.

 

Seems to only be single vvti fitment.

 

Didn't know they were a different length. But then again makes sense because Ripp coils fit the dual VVTI without trimming I've heard, unlike trimming on the singles some of us had previously completed

 

If I recall the RIPP colis were too long for our trucks and folks had to trim them unless I remember incorrectly.

Hmmm tempting to give this a shot. never heard of these guys before and they claim a large voltage boost.

 

are there any known dimensions for the stock supercharger heat exchanger? if not i'll prob take some this weekend.

 

I’ll certainly be interested to hear your findings.

 

Weren't some people upgrading to the Tundra Heat Exchanger? Or is that memory from 2010?

 

Shame...

 

What? On our blowers?

 

Yes

 

I'd really like to see or know how they did that. I wouldn't mind the extra internal cooling capacity AT ALL, and I'm sure the blower would appreciate it as well.

 

Another question for yall...
I am able to get Engine Ice coolant at a nice discount, and it's about time to replace the coolant in my truck anyhow.

Anyone ever used Engine Ice before? (in the engine or SC system) Any reservations to using it instead of the regular Toyota pink stuff?

 

Only ever heard of people using Water Wetter. Since you’re in SoCal maybe you can get away with using regular Toyota pink with more distilled added. I used about 70/30 in my Lexus.

 

I had thought about that for the sc system. but the price is rough. As for discounts, I dont know of any.

 

I'm not dealing with any overheating issues, just thought I would see if anyone is running it.

I can get it at a discounted price that makes me consider it since I'm needing coolant anyhow. It would still most definitely be a bit more $$ than OEM pink coolant for like $17 a gallon.

 

I use 10/90 water wetter/ water. Same goes for the blower cooling system. It works great but the "engine coolant" does run hotter and is less resilient to temperature taper.
