TRD/ Magnuson 4.0 Supercharger Tips, Tricks, and Mods

Could be caked on dust that appears to be rust. That is way too much moss on a rolling stone if it is rust.

 

That front bumper, tho. Is that a Pilfrey?

 

They are not rusty. Its mud.

 

I see rust.

 

Rusty rust, crusty crust

 

rust. Look at the bottom of the airbox, and other bolts / hardware around. Rust. And that engine compartment has clearly been pressure washed, and the blower wiped down with something to make it look purdy. No way in hell he would leave mud on the pulleys like that.

 

That is a good point. It is a bit peculiar considering the area he lives in is ot close to the ocean. Maybe he used to live in the salt belt or something? If not, it is possible he did live by the ocean.

 

The area he lives is right on the ocean actually.

 

So you guys are my ethereal friends and nobody cared about my 1fz not-gonna-be-a-turbo-now problem...not even @Torspd.

 

Ive had a busy week, what did I miss?

EDIT: I wouldn’t do a swap. Can you get another engine and build from there?

Is this what your rig has?

I was having a moment of silence for the loss

 

Yes, but I’ve already got the 1fz sold. I’m ready for more hp. It’s a wonderful truck, but when you're in the slow lane with big rigs on every hill, you want powah. If it’s selling for 1750, something is wrong.

 

Thank you. That’s what I was looking for. Lol.

We think the PO’s head gasket repair didn’t clean out the oil pan and that’s why there was still water in the oil. Bearing wear is real, but not catastrophic. It’s just not boost-worthy without a full rebuild. That’s $$ on a 1fz. You can buy a short block for $4K from Toyota, but that doesn’t change hp.

 

Group buy on Chevy 7.0 liters?

 

I think a hellcat swap would do nicely as well. Smaller pulley of course.

 

That kind of shit shows up on this site: https://www.clevelandpap.com/shop/e...-8-speed-auto-trans-turnkey-pallet-39k-miles/

 

Pretty good deal. What's a new 4.0 and a supercharger cost? Same? With half the power.

 

Well...contacted that company about the gauge mirror and they don’t have any replacement glass for my application. Next idea would be PLX to my old iPhone 6 with some solid windshield mount. That stealthy enough?

 

have you seen the viper built truck they are doing? also a 6sp swap on a magnum. pretty cool builds and the turnkey pallets are interesting

 

Curious how many miles you drove before the cel tripped? Has it came back? I just installed these headers as well, I have the o2 sims without the jbung I have the jbung but wanted you see of it would work without it first.
