    Thanks.

    Got the blower put on :woot:. Painting it didn't make it look as good as I was hoping but it works great and I guess that's all that really matters. It made a pretty big difference just like it is but I'm working on getting the 7th injector kit. I didn't get to the alternator but it should be a pretty easy install. Here is a picture of the supercharger installed.

    I got my alternator put on today and also upgraded the wires to 4awg. The new alt. is huge compared to the factory one. I forgot that I needed to upgrade the fuse in between the battery and alt. so I just ordered a blue sea AMI/MIDI fuse block and 150A fuse. That should be in next week. I also ordered a couple of blue sea dual usb sockets and I plan on ordering my wideband gauge and boost gauge tomorrow. A little update on the blower is that everything is working great and the power is awesome but I'm having trouble with the clutch slipping when I really get on it, so a stronger clutch is in the near future. My 7th injector kit came in the other day, hopefully I will be able to get it installed Sunday. On to the pics.

    Got my gauges installed and working. Also got the 150A blue sea fuse installed in between the battery and alt. I ordered new battery terminals and a blue sea fuse block to clean up the disaster of wires that is connected to my battery.

    Hey man sweet build, I heard you were looking for a video of you in a pit at the Sicilly Island trip CY did a while back. I was there with the silver 3rd gen 4runner and I just so happened to get some footage of it for you. So I'm just going to leave this right here:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NR20Ju9_PNE&feature=youtu.be

    Its still processing so it may be a bit grainy at first.

    Installed my 7th injector today. It runs pretty good. The map definitely needs some fine tuning but it will have to do till I get enough time to play with it some. I also installed some rock lights finally. The lights have been laying in my room for a while. I might try to hook up some under the bed rack and some in the interior tomorrow if I get a little spare time. Here are a couple pics of the rock lights.

    Yea that's them. Yea they are super bright. I put 20 of them under there. 2 in front and behind each tire, then one in the center of each side and one in the center on the front and rear.

    Thanks.

    Mine wasn't a night and day difference. It was already running pretty good without it. I didn't really have any pinging and it wasn't really leaning out any. I did notice that before the kit I was only getting 5-6 psi and now I'm getting a solid 7 psi at full throttle. The main reason that I want to play with the tune is that at full throttle it's running kinda fat. It's running about 10.0:1 and it says in the u-tune guide that these truck run best at around 12.0:1.

    Same here, I'm not sure whether or not it's worth it for me right now. Plus I'm not sure if I trust myself to be able to do it myself... Maybe in a couple years...

    Thanks.

    It's pretty awesome. I haven't run it much with my big tires but from what little that I did, I can tell that it will definitely turn them over a whole lot better.

    The install is very easy. If you can turn a wrench then you can put the blower on. I did it in about 3hrs.
