    That's crazy. A bad bypass will cause rich issues. Just when you think you've seen it all. Some of the boost bypass valves have been known to be bad right out of the box on these Magnusons so you may want to check that @nudavinci64

    sounds correct. wont open when under load, over rich, compensating, running poor. worth looking at.

    Check your PM's for toons!

    When you can, get me a log of aproximately 2-3 min of idle (at operating temp) and a little cruise action. Want to verify your trims.

    Use the latest channels file (attached here)

    Yeah the fact they are white indicates the porcelain is either brand new, or in stellar condition. Nothing to worry about.

    Right, because power enrichment (PE) is occurring based off of pedal input, not supercharger boost valve engagement.

    That's the only problem with these blowers being an add on entirely. The fact that the boost valve is not electronic makes the whole supercharger "dumb" so to speak vs everything else which is PCM controlled.

    We still have to do our own investigating from our end regardless though. He is far away so it's not like he can check out stuff for us, only give suggestions.

    He is good man.

    I can't take THAT much credit! But I really do mean it, that I am humbled by the appreciation. I really do try hard for you guys and I truly do hope you all know that.

    that would be interesting considering it a bit that old for taco years. Would give me a reason to put my fuel rails in.

    You tune Tundras? :D

    The Tundra forum is...behind on the times. There’s maybe 1 guy that used HP Tuners and he has maybe 5 posts. Everyone else is still buying bully dog or OVTune.
