TRD supercharger

Ohhhhhh shitzsky. That aint good

 

waiting for the urd spec headers to get here
any tips on the install? gonna try to leave the steering shaft together and see if i can sneak it by without

 

Pull front drive shaft gave me enough room to wiggle new headers on drivers side, passenger didn't require pulling anything

 

so how exactly would the coolant get in there? What is the overall fix

 

Well I'm assuming the main issue is the bolt between the two hoses came loose and caused the intercooler to leak coolant into the manifold, because it was loose there was a gap so that's where I'm assuming my issue started.


Now I have to figure out what I need to use to "glue" it back onto the lid. Then pop off the rest of the SC swap plugs change the oil an give it another go

 

I'd assume rtv manifold gasket maker, one good one I've used is permatex "the right stuff"

 

That's what I'm guessing but I'm going to email Magnuson tomorrow an see what they recommend.
This is how it's sitting now

 

I edited my last post.....the best one I've used is permatex "the right stuff"

 

I'm interested too, what's the best method to take these out?

 

A whole lot of rust buster and a wire brush. Get to brushin'...

 

How about this kind of Bolt Extractor:

Any experience with the manifold nuts?
Seems like these might be quite PITA.

 

i took the nuts off and re-used them instead of replacing the studs when I put shorties on... but I didn't have any real problem getting the nuts off, I feel like getting the studs out after 200k miles would have been a different story tho

 

Was it running bad? Did I miss that post?

 

Rough idle that led to CEL that was a cylinder 6 misfire

 

Ugh. Should we all be checking bolts? You're 1 of 1 so far.

 

I'll be continually checking mine.

 

Definitely use high temp loctite for that specific bolt.

 

already on the work bench

 

Well it's off, time to get into the plugs

 

You don't have to remove it to replace the plugs
