TRD/ Magnuson 4.0 Supercharger Tips, Tricks, and Mods

If you are in doubt then just do the services since you'll be in there. These blowers were not a factory installed option at any point only an offering as an "aftermarket" TRD item.

 

if it was dealer installed, they should have placed a sticker under the hood with the mileage, date, and new ecu version

 

This is what I’m doing for mine, that has unknown mileage. Probably close to 100k if I had to guess.
When I took it apart for the Z coupler and fluids, the bearings felt fine. Just new grease

 

hps now has heater core hose kits available in blue, black, and red on Amazon. only a few though. been checking for months. trying to fill my cab with un-installed parts. anyone here have info/ poking at ripp about those tacoma specific coil packs?? believe spring was the last rumored date i read.

 

Coincidentally, i emailed Ripp for an ETA and they said 1 week from now.

 

nice! knew it was soon. maybe we can ask @12TRDTacoma nicely if theres any group buy potential. so.....im in!

 

I really can't think of how many people would be interested in this. I can only think of 3 or 4 who are actively inquiring about it including you Jesse, so I can't see a group buy panning out too well like it did the Red Bullet solenoids.

 

so we try different. what if we ask for 10% for five guys order, hell even a 5% break. just trying for power of suggestion.

 

Welcome back!

 

He did say last time they would honor a 10% off which I think most of us got when we purchased. They had a sale at the time.

 

a different topic im getting a 1 piece drive shaft. these vibes suck. found a western wa. small shop that does up to 71". ours are more 68ish. big point was lead time and cost. 1 week, 400.00
damn nice option as ive heard the tom woods go more than double. this was a 3 1/2" thick wall. im getting one so i can leave further feedback.

 

i missed that gb.

Hello everyone

We are aware of the fitment issues and are working with manufacturing to get it all sorted. 2nd gen Coil Pack sales have been stopped while we do so.

If anyone wishes to return their set for a full refund you are absolutely able to do so and we will take care of all shipping costs.

To return your set please email sales@rippmods.com with your original order number and specify that you are returning 2nd gen Tacoma Coil Packs.

At this time we are going to only do returns for a full refund so that we can ensure everyone's issue is taken care of fully and that no orders are left open while we redesign the Coil Pack mounts. If you purchased during the Black Friday sale at 10% off we will absolutely honor that price if you decide to purchase the redesigned units. We will provide a one time use discount code to all who return their coil packs.


See his response

 

ahh well maybe not one use code. but I like 1 week! Just what I need more parts

 

Food for thought. I had a one piece driveshaft and got vibration about 70mph. The driveshaft was reaching critical speed for the length. I was running 4.10 gears and 33" tires. Talk to the shop and make sure you don't have the same thing happen to you. I ended up having to buy another two piece driveshaft with a double cardigan joint in the rear half. No more vibs.

 

Hell you may just be able to add the double cardigan joint to your existing driveshaft.

 

I'd be interested in these coils way more than the solenoids

 

oh crap. now im 2nd guessing.

 

I believe @Torspd has a 4" one piece in his. Might be something to consider for a higher critical speed like @rheath08 mentioned

 

4" would require some removal/trimming of the CB crossmember from what i've read
