4Wheeling4Banger’s Supercharged Silver State Edition Build

DO IT!
OMG you wont believe what a difference it makes.

 

Subbed! Nice build man!

 

Here's from when they were trying to tune it with the 5th injector wired wrong. So this is only the stock 4 injectors trying to keep up with the supercharger. I wasn't there for the final 245 HP 229 Ft/Lb dyno after they got the 5th injector working.

 

Did a little sunset trail run. Mild little run with a couple of fun spots. 1st time in the dirt since boosting. Truck did great. LOTS of power. I spent most of my time at 1K to 2.5K RPM. Rarely did I go over 3K RPMs I did have some problems trying to see where we were going at times. Between the sun & the dust kicked up I often couldn't even see the trail & had to try to blindly mimic Travis' movements. We found some fun spots. Some were fun for both & some were fun for one. Travis got to show off his skinny rig going between shit I didn't want to try. I got to show off my new power going where he couldn't.

 

Subbed!

 

Had a great "weekend" camping with some old friends, new friends & some just met friends. We headed to Frenchman's Lake Wednesday morning to beat the weekend crowd there & get some spots before they were gone. We spotted the lake shark shortly after getting there. Of course I made some pizzas & they were a big hit. Had a lot of fun & looking forward to the next trip. And yes that's a fake fire, but you can use it during Red Flag conditions.
The Taco does a much better job climbing mountains & hills now when towing

 

Love the doggie shark man!!!

 

I picked up a new toy to play with.
2018 Maverick X3 X RS Turbo R 900cc turbo with 172 HP & will do 0 to 60 in 4.4 seconds
I've only gotten it up to a little over 65 mph so far, not sure what top speed is.

 

He's also become my Maverick copilot

I took Buddy out for his 1st ride in the RS Turbo R. I wasn't sure what to expect. He's not the best in the Taco on road at times & worse off road.
He seemed to be having fun. When we were going he'd just lay down with his head up looking. When I got it going 30 to 45 mph he'd tuck his head below the dash to get out of the wind.
1st trip was a short one to see how he'd do.
When I asked him later if he wanted to go for a ride & open the door he just hopped in, got in his seat & waited for me to strap him in.
2nd trip was longer & I ended up just N of Hazen when I turned around. Got to play on some nice sand piles, explored & flew down some trails. He was great & the only time I got a reaction from him was when I was flying at 45 mph & did the "Oh SHIT! SLAM on the brakes there's a big ass rut/ditch across the trail" maneuver.
Tomorrow I get to use the real key on it. I have about a 1/2 hour left on the break-in. It comes with two color coded keys. One limits torque & top speed (to 45 mph) I've only used this one so far.
The other one unleashes the full power of the 172 HP 900cc Turbo tri-cylinder engine.


He's wearing his harness (attached to 4 pt harness) & the 4 pt harness

This is how he rides at slower speeds
After a fun day wheelin' with my pup I came home & made some smoked pulled pork & bacon nacho fries.

 

You both live great lives don’t you!

 

We're trying.

 

are you still on your original Dakars or the new ones?

 

Original

 

I think I’m gonna put mine back in after a good scrubbing and new coat of paint after assembly.

been rolling on expo’s but they don’t seem to handle the loads well. 1200lbs of flooring and was riding on the bump stops all the way home

 

Need to get the pup some RexSpex! Lot of K9 dogs wear them and have no real issue with them.

 

Long story I'll fill in later


You want to talk about a cold air intake?

 

Step one: Dream up something crazy.......Done
Step two: Begin acquiring parts & pieces needed to build dream.......Begun
Step three: Some assembly required.......Soon
Step four: Enjoy.......Soon
Repeat any steps necessary as required


I bought a E450 6.0L DI Power Stroke V8 Diesel to convert into a RV/TowRig

Thinking about a supercharger in the future! Next purchase will be the 6112s for the front and then a rear bumper.

 

A few questions for you sir..
Which short throw shifter do you have?
how many miles do you have on the URD s/c so far, and still enjoying it?
Is your fuel pump the 190lph that came with the s/c kit?
