TRD/ Magnuson 4.0 Supercharger Tips, Tricks, and Mods

ahhh you called then.. I've been emailing. lol

 

85.56 for this coupler upgrade kit from SCOL

 

Is the Gates K050705RPM no longer being made? I can't find it in stock anywhere.

 

I remember it being somewhat a pain.. and had to be shipped from another store.

 

I see Out of Stock as well tho now.. ruh roh I should have bought a couple more...

 

Not making any boost? Any suggestions?

 

Check the Valve.

 

Hey guys, I wanted to check in here and see if anyone had what I’m looking for, for sale by chance. I bought a 52mm AEM 30-4407 oil pressure gauge recently and received the face plate on the left below. I am looking for a black face place like pictured on the right, but with the 0-150psi scaling and the black AEM emblem. Anyone have one leftover they’d be willing to sell?


I also have a few extras if someone has what I need and wants to trade for one they need

 

I might maybe. I'd have to check my stash when I get home

 

Belt slip

 

wow, so who has any Gates K050705RPM belts in stock, or any extras in the garage?? I'm sure there are many people that wish they had some spares right about now. I'd buy one!

 

Alright @Billy182 .. VW roller bearing is done. I finally got my little tool dialed in and made of steel this time, to hopefully make these go a little smoother for any others that may want or need these VW rollers modified.

 

Looks great! Nice job on the tool too! I’m sure you’ll find yourself using it again and again.
Now I’ll be one step closer to

A huge thank you!

 

no problem. these should go much easier now. I still need to get your hardware from Ace.. I forget the length I used for mine..

 

Rebuilt supercharger from Stegmeiers Porting Service out of MO, only 20k on the rebuild. Replaced all nose cone assembly, detached the rotors and replaced bearings, rear rotor bearings and seals. Thoughts?

hard to tell not being there but it does sound different than mine. maybe @12TRDTacoma could verify as he has a solid coupler and iirc say they make more noise.

 

may be a good boost driving time tmrw. high is 20* need an oil change too. maybe a total warm up, oil, and go test out these new tires in snow.

 

curious what grade strength that loctite is. i have the coupler, and silicone but dont know if they included the nut. is mine re-usable? i didnt buy the kit. i bought the coupler 3 years ago and never did it. never made mention of loctite on pg 1. anybody have suggestions?

 

The Loctite 518 looks to be a gasket.

Anerobic sealant. https://docs.rs-online.com/4bad/0900766b8001f50f.pdf

 

Papa google says loctite 518 is a gasket maker so they must put it in the kit to seal the nosecone. I never got a replacement fill plug, just reused the stock one.
