TRD/ Magnuson 4.0 Supercharger Tips, Tricks, and Mods

+1. Finally ordered a nice set of gauges but, in their absence, my UltraGauge has yet to show any lean-out condition. (Disclaimer: Most of my driving is between 5K and 7K ft elevation.)

My experience (to date) confirms @White lightning boosted's report that 2.7" / 2.8" is good with stock belt and Roost's Pulley Wrap Mod. FWIW, I'm still running the stock tensioner as well.

 

Yeah. I was eye balling the roush this morning. Just what I need. One more part laying on my table.

 

I didn’t even think about the pulley wrap mod. It’s a plus in my book in that I’d rather use the stock belt I have and the extra one I have as a backup. Also I rather not cut a belt....I figured getting the beefier tensioner for the hell of it.....

 

I still have my Roush tensioner sitting on the bench...along with URD headers, ECGS bushing, and differential/tc oil change kit. My excuse has been the winter temps, but its almost 50 outside today

 

You're in good company! I'm happy to hear I'm not the only one who stockpiles parts, tools, etc (for months) before I find the time to install/use them...

 

URD headers are gonna be fun to put in. Its an event to say the least. I would not attempt those either when its cold.

 

I still haven’t put on my wilwoods or my softtopper.....

 

Well you better get on that then! No excuses.

 

LOL! I finally bought the Wilwood AERO6/AERO4 Big Brake kits for my Shelby. Got the calipers ceramic-coated, but everything is still awaiting install...

 

My stock pads are about done......but not yet. I figured I’ll put the kit on when the stock pads are toast. I was actually thinking of ceramic coating my calipers too.

 

DO IT! They're as clean and easy to work with as they'll ever be BEFORE installation.

 

ill take a picture of the bed of my truck when i get home that's where all my parts are

 

im running 2.6 with 69.5 belt. with walboro and fpr mod. no problems at all.

 

Are both tanks going on the passenger side to balance the inherent taco lean?

 

I’m not sure yet. Still trying to figure out where I want to mount them. I would like. Then both on pass side yes. But I want them up close to the cab as possible too.

 

Better hurry up! It’s getting warm. I saw 80 degF in NM today.

 

Roads still covered in salt here. Probly won’t be till mid April. Maybe later.

 

Purposely driving to snow. Spring skiing.

 

No rust on my truck. Trying to keep it that way lol.
