TRD/ Magnuson 4.0 Supercharger Tips, Tricks, and Mods

So my afr at wot was about 11.2-11.8 at any given time. Avg was 11.6 Id say. Looks and feels great. Once the 2.5 and vb get here it will be perfect. Probably not much mods after that.

But thats what we always say

 

30mm, not minigun haha

 

I'm hoping the group buy closes soon. The supercharger is disassembled for maintenance and to add colder plugs. Going to pull the stock pulley off tonight to see if I can get the seal out and locate a new one. I measured the oil that came out and it was a little shy of 4 ounces. I swear I had read somewhere that it takes 6 ounces, can anyone verify this?



Edit: I really really need to install a catch can, lots of blow-by in there.

 

The fill spec is just until it starts coming out again I believe.

 

I changed the oil ones, I tried several times and methods suck all of the old oil, but I could not get a full 4oz out. I had also supposed that I need to suck/fill 6oz.

Someone needs bigger injectors and forged internals.

 

Man. I wish this were around some years ago. Better late than never.

I am truly interested in what they can make happen with regards to before and after dyno tunes.

 

I know of one like that.

 

Why would this be better than the Ucon? Gadget has been at this for a long time.

 

Because it gives the user the ability to adjust things themselves if they so wish. Also, competition benefits the consumer, but that doesn't mean the one is better than the other.

 

I still need recommendations on true plug and play injectors for our trucks. Are 660's made by Denso true P&P? Those would be the ones I'd be interested in pursuing if so.

Just waiting to hear back from OVTune if the injector sizes can be upgraded or not.

 

plug and play?

you cant even go back to stock if your flashed iirc

 

Some injectors require adapter harnesses.

 

You can adjust UCON by uTune too. If you know what you are doing.

 

oh, I see what he meant.
Good call

 

You can adjust fueling/ignition tables?

 

Yes

 

Well would you look at that. Learn something new every day. One claimed advantage is that OVTune can reflash ECUs. I am personally going to see if that's true or not because I need this shit maggie tune gone. Now to be fair, Gadget said that a reflash may be possible, but that he'd need a donor ECU with the flash I wanted. Another advantage is that OV claims that your current tune doesn't matter, unlike the UCON which only likes the stock tunes. Again a factor for me, since I obviously don't have a stock ECU.

Either way the competition statement stands. If OV does nothing but drive UCON innovation up or prices down we all still win.

 

Yes we will see soon. My truck is going to visit ovtune and their dyno soon in the near future. I’ll let you all know how it goes.
