TRD/ Magnuson 4.0 Supercharger Tips, Tricks, and Mods

Looking at the RCF as you suggested. 84mm might be too huge for our snout openings that an adapter is necessary. I decided to forego the adapter for more OE look and less questions and will fill/drill/smooth what's necessary to fit the 76mm.

Per @Jowett here a shot from his machined piece. Very nice

 

Glad to hear this is helpful!

Also note (if someone hasn’t already) that while the 3UR and 2UZ throttle bodies are both 76mm, only the 3UR receives a machined flat throttle plate shaft for slightly improved flow.

Forgot, if you find the protruding hex lobular drive studs ugly, nut 90176-06045 is capped and will cover. Has the nice hd black/green coating instead of silver zinc.

 

So far between last night getting the engine out and putting the new one in this morning I'm about 6 hours in hope to have it started in an hour or two

 

Me next, I need cab mounts on my f350

 

Well boys, I'm supercharged now. Cranked it up and it was dead missing on cylinder 5. Thank God that cylinder is easy to get to. Injector was stuck. Gave it a few Taps and shot 12 volts to it to hear it click and it's been running great ever since.

 

Congrats brother! Time to button it up and bring it to Mexico!

 

make the tb camoflauged by sanding it to aluminum bare and washing it with simple green or degreaser to make it look like old aluminum.

 

Shes strong but damn this thing is noisey. Low speed idling around sounds like rocks in a tumbler. Hood open idling sounds embarassing. Normal?

 

really happy to see you get success! great job brother!

 

now for some testing trials. looking forward to comments.

 

Mo powah bebe

 

loud noise is usually the snout coupler. mine is still stock and needs swapped. a quick utube video to post gives audible for us here to help with feedback.

 

I have a solid coupler, prolly normal. Every bearing is new and rotors are fresh. Unless high speed lab fucked something up its brand new.

 

id make sure afr #s are good and just run. i do know solid couplers to make more noise than stock.

 

Going to wire up my gauges before I keep romping on it. Makes me want to go back to stock tires with this bump in power now lol.
Long travel would look fine on 31s right?

 

31 on stock gears should be fine. i loved my 4:10's on 33's but with current 35's im wishing for lower gears.

 

just make more power.... pulley downsize.

 

Im on 4.88s

 

spicy...

 

Mines sounds like a fifth grade classroom rock Tumbler at idle. Then goes aaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA when you step on it !
