Actually, there's not much on the shelf now. Mud flaps waiting on a lift, some bumper plugs, some cap wiring.

I think I'll buy those JBAs next and paint them black before it gets cold and wet.

 

Oh yeah and the Prinsu racks, but technically, they aren't on a shelf.

 

At least you have a mod shelf.

 

Oh yeah, and a pair of Baja lights for the Prinsu

Yeah, but you have a 55 ga drum full of memes. Who is a richer man, by any measure?

 

That would be you.

 

2.85" pulley isn't that much of a big deal, and you can install it without need for further modification if/when you install your super(poverty)charger.

One thing I'd highly recommend: upgrade your fuel pump regardless of whether or not you upgrade anything. Even on stock systems, folks are reaching the limitations of the stock fuel pump. It's cheap-ass insurance versus a couple thousand dollars to repair your engine.

 

Thanks for your input. There are a lot of factors around this, and I haven't had time to fully investigate the effects of each yet.

 

One more thing: The Toyota ECM re-flash is notorious for causing your truck to run rich, so get a quality AFR gauge to determine how rich or how lean you're running. Adding an aftermarket air induction system can affect your air-to-fuel ratio too.

In a nut shell, the supercharger is by far my favorite mod, but it's expensive and requires a bit more in the way of active & passive monitoring to ensure long term reliability. To me, the basic ancillary components to install in conjunction with the supercharger are:

1. 255l fuel pump
2. AFR gauge

Like I said, it's cheap insurance to make sure your truck runs well and with minimal issues. Beyond those two pieces of equipment, everything else is icing on the go-fast cake.

 

The kit comes with a Bullydog tuner that is specifically tweaked for the Magnuson. My understanding is the the Toyota reflash is a one-way ticket the means you can't go back to stock, whereas the Bullydog tuner allows you to accomplish the tune without a dealer reflash, and can be undone.

Looking into instrumentation is next, with a small steering column cluster. I'm also looking into a mount for my phone on the A-pillar that would permit me to use my Torque App to monitor AT temp when towing in the mountains, also.

I'm not doing this to "go fast" per se, but more for additional torque and grunt under heavy mountain loads. I'm going to be using it pretty conservatively.

I need to go, single daddy duty right now. Thanks for the input, it's nice to have a one-on-one discussion with someone literate on the subject, Rusty. Thanks.

 

Dang. I've had that on my phone forever! Now I know where it came from.

 

I giggle every time I watch this.
