TRD/ Magnuson 4.0 Supercharger Tips, Tricks, and Mods

Speaking of methanol injection does anyone here run a water/meth kit? Is there tuning involved or do you just run the kit?

 

I'm planning on doing the URD fuel pump upgrade, I've been reading quite a few good tips/tricks on here. one question I have, when you do this upgrade, do you retain the fuel pump strainer ? does it need to be replaced ?

 

so I'm installing that URD upgrade kit (Walbro 255) this weekend, and if you are referring to the "sock" that goes on the pump; it is included with the kit (I just visually checked it in the packaging). It also comes with the inline fuel filter that will be external to the gas tank for easy changing.

Hope that helps!

 

Thanks... Are you planning on dropping the tank or pulling the bed ?

 

I have access to both a lift and xmsn jack, so im dropping the tank.

 

Be careful with the hoseclamps on the pump to the top of the assembly. They failed on mine due to being over tightened

Update: 2 new upstream sensors are in and it feels very healthy

 

So your all good and running strong??

 

Dont let me jinx it, only been like 3 miles

 

What upstream sensors are these exactly? I want to have these on hand when I start installing my parts. Did Gadget say to replace them when you put the spec u’s and ucon on?

 

He did say that. Ignored him. Which ended up being a mistake

 

It probably had to do with mileage.
I didn’t change my sensors.

 

I had like like 36k on the clock when I installed the ucon

 

Interesting .. I had 25000.

 

So what’s the consensus ......if you want UCON (being s/c like us) you should not do it on the bd or trd flash but do it on a clean ecu???

I have thought for a split second to do UCON but not if I’m gonna have problems...I’m on a trd flash

Edit....I have 31500 mileage

 

From what I have read here, if you have a bd or trd flashed ecu the ucon will never run the truck right. I think some people even had issues with check engine lights.
If I were you I would wait to see what OvTune does for these trucks.

 

Yeah that’s what I recall....I just don’t wanna admit it I guess.

 

The ucon ran decently on my trd flash, but not perfect. I wish I would have ran a clean ecu from day 1. So Id say its must for ucon purchases

 

Yeah that sounds right I guess, sucks cuz I believe the description for UCON states how it operates with the s/c.....is there kinks that urd has to work out with the new batches? Or is their stance is nothing is wrong?

 

Im not really sure about their stance. I havent talked to gadget in months. Just scott the tuner has been working with me. He is helpful and patient

 

For 1500 or whatever it costs.....They should be..
