TRD/ Magnuson 4.0 Supercharger Tips, Tricks, and Mods

Any pics of the same side to rule out just a difference between the driver and passenger side?

 

yeah one of those is the intake manifold side and the other is the exhaust side.

 

I didn't even notice that, ha. Stupid descriptions both said "right"

 

Just get the OEM Toyota gaskets.

 

Yes you are correct. This has been done! I can’t remember who did.

 

I put the 2015 engine in my 09 truck. Everything lines up. Difference is the 2nd air inject exhaust. Use the old header/manifold and use gasket for 2012+.

 

Thanks!

 

So I have been having a crazy issue for the truck for the last couple weeks. not sure if anyone has had or seen a bad fuel pump resistor, but I have been basically been having the same problem. crank the truck, starts and immediately dies. This problem had been intermittent for the most part. mostly popping up early in the morning. Sometimes the truck would crank in the morning and die on me on the way to work. Try it early in the morning and have issues. come home from work, cranks right up and drives just fine. Well, I tried the jumping of the resistor this morning and no go, didn't work. well while i was poking around I decided to open the fuse box and i have a fuse holder bolted on top of it so while i was trying to take the cover off, the intercooler pump came on. I didn't realize the intercooler pump hadn't been running. So, once I got the fuse box open, the fuse and wire tap for the intercooler pump wasn't completely seated. I pushed it in more and the truck cranked right up and stayed running no issues. The prongs on the fuse were kinda bent into each other. so bent the prongs out and it seated better into the fuse block. So mad on what a dumb fix to the problem I have been having.

also, at no time was I throwing any codes. If I did, it was for an O2/afr Sensor code.

 

What fuse was the pump tied into?

 

EFI No. 2. its what TRD had in their instructions.

 

Well there's your issue. Truck cant run without that fuse.

 

I recommend moving it off that fuse. I’m too lazy to requite my post again, but it’s within the last month I believe in this thread.

 

yeah, definitely the problem. all the problems i had with it was all crazy and didnt make sense. but once i realized the pump wasnt running i figured something was amiss in the fuse box

 

Have any of you boosted boys installed the lra 33 gallon fuel tank? I am thinking about getting one. Just curious if there was any issues swapping over fuel pump. I would probably buy a new fuel pump too just since I’m in there and ive had this dw pump for a while now.
