TRD/ Magnuson 4.0 Supercharger Tips, Tricks, and Mods

I'm a little confused looking at the smoothflow website. Which is the proper pulley for our application? I'm interested in doing a 2.8 with quickchange capability.

 

From Page 1.

Supercharger Qwikchange pulley 5 rib design for the Chevy Cavalier/ Pontiac Sunfire M45 blower:

On page 1, there is a direct size for the 2.7. but you will need to order it on eBay. It fits European vehicles.

 

Recommend pre-cutting your S/C snout (BEFORE you install the Qwikchange Hub) to permit use of the smallest pulley you MAY want to install in the future, which will make the swap a simple matter if/when that time comes.

 

Is anyone running that? I’m seeing a lot like me with the 70.5” belt and a wrap mod.

 

@12TRDTacoma wouldn’t a K100702HD work for the 2.7”? Front page only lists 8- and 12-rib versions … this could be cut down the middle for 2 belts if I understand right.

 

FWIW, I'm running a STOCK belt and tensioner with my 2.5" RIP-modded pulley and @Roostfactor's pulley wrap mod. No noticeable slip and no problems in almost five years and ~20K miles.

 

To be honest with you either run a Fleetrunner if you want try and get the most traction but are okay with having to cut belts since RPM belts are harder to find now or run a stock 70.5" belt for a 2.7. I run a stock sized belt but I am also running an RPM.

Yes but that's with a pulley rip mod brotha. Us normies have to compensate for the slippage in other ways.

 

I'm running that belt and 1 or 2 others. I have had it on for about 20K giver or take. No issues, no signs of excessive wear and no belt slip. I am hitting about 8.5 psi at elevation of 350 ish in 100 degrees plus days. This belt is designed for small displacement diesels.

 

Perfect. I’ve the same rip & wrap mods on mine, so I’ll stick with stock. Thanks!

 

Selling my trd supercharger if you guys know somebody that wants the “TRD” logo for $5k. It’s still on my truck cause I’m planning to go a different route if it’s sells but if not I guess I’ll just keep it as is.

 

I’ve been running 2.7 with stock length with no issues only later added the wrap mod just for extra insurance.

 

FYI - one of us likely won’t buy it for that price unless it’s rebuilt with receipt.

 

Also no fit kit no sale. That kit alone is $3500 or so for all the parts. If you have most it will help sale but used S/C need for fit kit don’t sell high. @Murphinator was selling his full TRD kit with new parts for $3500 I think

time to stay boosted!

 

Yea I’m really happy with my setup but I sourced out shops to put a tvs1900 supercharger on our motors but I won’t do it unless I can sell my set up since it’ll require some custom parts to make it work.

 

The fit kit plus the other parts you need for a full kit is stupid expensive.

 

I was planning to remove everything so maybe there is no need for a fit kit for another Tacoma?

 

i posted all the info in the for sale thread but it keeps getting deleted not sure why. I added details, pictures and a price and it’s gone.

 

ChadGPT, is that you?

 

While it's possible to do this unless you go reverse install manual chances are you are going to miss things that are costly.

To post a for sale thread I think items have to be removed from the truck.
