TRD/ Magnuson 4.0 Supercharger Tips, Tricks, and Mods

Not built per say… TRD supercharger/fit kit, Afe intake, fuel pump, standard TRD Tune, smaller pulley with wrap. Unless I’m forgetting something, that’s it.

 

get some long/multiple zip ties and keep them in truck. My clamps to hold it shut never worked so mine intake has been zip tied shut since install. I’ve been meaning to put a plug in the filter minder but keep forgetting to look for one.

 

how are the RIPPs working out long term? I thought they had some issues initially and then I don’t recall hearing anything about them.

 

They did I called that out but they redesigned the fitment and so far solid. Added those and the Ruth’s. Nice combo

 

Interesting I’ll have to look into that. Mine work but o have been showing higher signs of minerals and silicone in my oil tests. Almost positive it’s on one side of the intake. I pulled the charcoal filter and used sown gasket sealer and put it back on. Then I plan to add a soft gasket around to give it more it needs to be to tighten and compress. Ram into a video of a guy from Australia that had issues on his 200 series. After 200km destroyed his engine. He swapped it out with this aluminum one which I wish we had here but I plan to give the truck a few quick oils changes, cleaned out the it some and TB, new solenoids (the GB from @SUMOTNK ) and keep that tight. I may toss a ratchet strap on too. I had to do that when I broke a clamp mount j til I replaced the lower box. it seems good besides that. Work my pre cleaner and snorkel no way I should have that must dust in there. My filter water this last trip to Baja was caked, made its way into the intake tube too so not a surprise it’s showing up. Hopefully I caught it early enough.

 

Yeah, I've been running the RIPPs for a long time (several years actually) and have had never had an issue with them.

 

Pretty much ready for @JustDSM to tune this thing Friday!

 

What tire brand you running? I want to buy stock..

 

lol doubt they last to end of warranty. 285/45R22 Yokohama Parada Spec-X

Need some full shots of this thing

 

Those are 22" TRD Forged Wheels, just powder coated black. Truck has been out of commission in my garage for about a month and a half while working on this. Haven't driven it with the new wheels/tires yet.

nice staying at that height or you going to lower it some more? Many moons ago soft spot for dropped full size trucks. This thing is going to be rad. Looks great.

 

Okay ColoRADo. Let’s see whatcha got!

 

No, that's as low as it's going since it's a 4x4. 2/4" drop was the lowest recommended in order to keep the front diff happy. But that pic is also without like 150lbs of battery, s/c, skid plate and other misc weight added. So should bring it down like what...1/4" more in front

 

Spoiler: 400whp

400whp 3G Maggy? ✅

 

Man I’m mad I didn’t get my truck on the dyno at koh. Hptuner had one out there. Would have been curious to see how it did. Also probably sad to see how small the number would have been with the 37’s lol. Think someone on here with a similar setup and tune put 330ish to the wheels but only on 33’s.

 

I'll be doing a dyno tune on a 2G Maggy tomorrow AM.

I'll share what we get. But 330whp isn't bad for a 2G Maggy.

 

Yeah that seemed pretty good for basically just a 2.8 pulley, intake and tune.

 

I need to figure out how you do the Dyno tuning. Need more hot sauce once I figure out my idling issue.
