Magnuson Supercharger Mega Thread for 16+ Tacoma - Unboxing, Install DIY, Dyno Video

How many of you are AT and are Happy with the Magnuson?

I have a 2020 AT, and I am not sure I can go another summer without boost. Reading past posts, I could only identify MT truck owners. Does Magnuson have a tune for 2020 AT?

I might need to do this.

 

there are several AT boosted trucks, both on maggy's tune and testers for YotaWerx

 

Happy overall but waiting on a custom tune to be ecstatic

 

Yeah same. The blower works fine, but the tune does nothing to improve the shifting and anemic throttle response. Patiently waiting for a tune.

 

I feel your pain about the Magnuson Tune. I recently received the newest V7 release from Magnuson. I decided to give it a try to see if they fixed the terrible shifting logic. I thought I could run it for a few days. I ran it for one-half of a day and could not take the dead pedal tune any longer. Thankfully I am testing for @mZiggy and the YW Tune which instantly brought the truck back to life. The wait will be worth it. Patience will be rewarded with a tune that makes driving a pleasure and not a pain.

 

With ECT off my SC/Truck is rather ho hum but when ECT is on the truck feels like its got 370hp and can get out of its own way. We camp a lot throughout the year and living in the mountains really pushed the stock motor/trans but now towing is like you would have expected from the factory and long steep pulls are just another section of asphalt.

To be fair I'm doing most of my towing on 33" KM3's with 4.88 gears so I am modded a bit.

 

32" KO2's w 4.88's and Maggy SC is the best the truck has ever been. A 2020 AT @Pinchaser. Better tune is possible but my pedal is fairly responsive compared to stock.

 

Did anyone else have a lot of oil in their lower intake? Not sure if this is normal or not. I am guessing it is coming from the crankcase vent back into the intake. If so I already have a catch can that I am installing with the SC.

 

yep this is normal and it will still look like that with a catch can.

 

Totally normal. And the very reason I now have a catch can on my truck. The ADD W1 can comes in a variety of anodized colors, anodized hose clamps, AND a dipstick to check the oil level. Can also get the can in carbon fiber if you’re feeling fancy pants.

Before you ask me for a link… Here it is:

Thanks for the input. I was just surprised how much gunk was in the lower intake after only 30K miles.

 

Thanks for all the feedback, that is promising! at the very least.

Hope that Yotawerx is finalized soon, as you are soon to loose your winter climate testing availability.

 

How has the smaller pulley been for those running it??

 

Not a big increase in noticeable power BUT it softens the otherwise dramatic dip in power mid way through a wide open pull

 

I'm going to go back to the 90mm. Felt more powerful, and I had some ping under heavy load. Seems like lots of varied experiences on this one.

 

I think there's a lot of variance in these trucks due to fueling with the multi-stage ECU controlled pump etc... I'm of the belief that there wasn't much meat left on the bone with the fuel system and we are getting pretty close to the limit so we see others reaching that limit a little sooner with environmental differences and driving habits AND especially mods.

 

Any downside to adding air flow accelerator & k&n filter?

 

No, but there probably won’t be an upside either

 

@GoldenBrew hows the tune running for you? Itching for some new info lol

 

I’m waiting on better tuning before I go with the Maggy. I can’t go back to that crap stock tune after running the KDMaxx.
