TRD/ Magnuson 4.0 Supercharger Tips, Tricks, and Mods

Yeah I’m glad I didn’t get too sucked down into the s/c mods rabbit hole. I’m still stuck on suspension and everything else

 

this is why I wanted the truck operational while you were here.. change that mindset real quick I think. lol

you'll have to take it for a drive if/when we come up.

 

Happy to do so haha. Or at least get a ride along.

 

Thats a deal including the springs.

 

No idea. I assume so

 

Looks like it includes the springs is why I was saying good deal. I paid that much for the pro kit with no springs.

 

Dam. I bought my Fox pro kit in 2 stages. Fronts then the rears. Together I paid 1100

 

@JuanitoBunito Did you get your headers swapped yet? I just got my stock headers pulled out, not too bad of a job. Getting the new ones in will be interesting!

 

Pull out the studs.

 

All out. I don't have one-upper titanium studs, just ARP SS lol.

So do I install the studs after I have the headers lined up? I'm also swapping out the engine mounts. Should help with the install.

 

That was after the kit was discontinued and no longer readily available. I wanted an original factory set for a time way way down the road. I'd like to install a better mid-travel setup while the trucks in its prime.

That kit will be purely for aesthetics some day.

 

I plan to keep this Fox set up for the same reasons. My original Baja suspension looked horrible. Still worked great but looked bad. I just pitched it all in the garbage just last week. At some point I’ll get a much better suspension too.

 

I did. A couple weeks ago or so. I wrote about it in my build page.

Here y'all go. Looks like they decided to do it before Friday

 

Insurance paying out $31,500. I paid $32,500, 6years ago. Remove upgrades and re-install stocks. I have till friday.

I was bit surprised at the estimate .. in a good way.

Ohh .. they added $200 for my Volks and $400 for Clazzio seat covers.

Rims are coming off .. they can have the seat covers.

 

It's only a few grand. It's okay.

Nothing like watching the crafts install 200-225' of 30" overhead line made out of monel that has been overlaid with Inconel.

For the cost of that pipe, you could buy a lot of stuff for your truck.

 

???

 

Nope! Didn’t fit.

 

no shit.. sucks when you have to use equally as expensive tooling to cut the expensive material.. and you've got 100+ pieces to do.
