TRD/ Magnuson 4.0 Supercharger Tips, Tricks, and Mods

I am guessing no. I know some other items other people made if it was shut down for legal reasons why won't share them. Just turn off in HP Tuners.

 

You got it backwards. Innovate is good on the boost side, but not AFR gauges. This applies at least to their MTX lineup. Which it appears that he is running.

 

That's not true, but it does benefit some setups over others, as far as OE goes I wouldn't do it unless you are tuned for it on the count that it makes you go pig rich.

 

Hmm ok have to check I picked up the dual AFr one

 

Good luck with those brother.

 

Well, I got them installed finally along with new water pump, thermostat & full nst pulley kit. My first impression isn't good the side seals will not stay in place. They slung grease everywhere and were not seated when I took it all back apart. I'm not sure where to go from here. I'm going to email microblue and ask for new side seals and see if that fixes it.

FWIW...The full nst kit with s/c crank pulley shaved 3lbs 1oz of rotational weight according to my scale.

 

I’ll prob ditch if there are issues. Okay though the single dual gauge as okay.

 

I did do the fpr mod on factory fuel set up…. (Trd high flow injectors, but stock pump and filter)

 

Mhm. There it is. Lol.

Undo it and attach the hose back to your intake, until you get a tune from Justin. The factory tune is not geared to run that mod in mind and until then it is overwashing the heck out of your cylinders.

 

Thanks a lot man. I’ll post back after I try it!

 

I bet that's what was causing mine to be up to 30% off. That and so many other mods I did before finally getting a tune done

 

This is a mod I recommend, BUT I only recommend this mod as long as your tune accounts for it. When Justin dialed mine in, he accounted for the variable boost rate that the FPR sees when the line is hooked up to the blower so my AFR never swings super wild like it is for you guys and it works similar to the way the AFR gradually drops like the original TRD tune.

 

Quick question, what’s the ultimate benefit of the FPR mod? Avoiding the AFR reading spikes?

 

Anyone have issues with the URD quick change pulley not fitting? Pressed the hub on and go to bolt the pulley to the hub and it won’t fit. Should have checked fitment of the hub to pulley before I pressed the hub on but I assumed it was properly machined and would fit… Emailed URD to resolve but figured I’d ask here too

Fortunately the whole top of the engine is still disassembled so it’s not putting me down but still a little annoying

1.258” - Hub OD
Didn’t have correct calipers to reach into bore of pulley but a 1.254” socket wouldn’t fit


….kinda defeats the purpose of ‘quick’ and ‘change’ if it has to be pressed onto the hub

 

Are there any ford motors that hold up better? Whether Ecoboost or V8?

 

Your snout doesn’t look trimmed down.

 

It provides fueling on increments equal to boost pressure applied. It doesn't tax the fuel system as much because of this.

Some will disagree here, but because it makes the fueling behave the way it does, provides more pep as a whole through the RPM range.

 

Nice going Ace.

 

so I routed my vacuum lines back to normal (fpr to intake)

still hitting 7.4afr at wot….

 

Not required for a 2.8” pulley

Snout dia - 2.406”
Pulley ID - 2.466”
