TRD supercharger

I saw that in another thread. Whoever designed that one bolt in the inner fender should be shot. I only bled a little.

Anybody know if it takes a lot of turns of the adjuster screws to see movement?

 

You should see movement eveey turn or so. Yeah I'm waiting until my bumper and fenders are replaced lol

 

I don't recall installing the driver side being any more difficult than the passenger side when I installed my Pro lights. I did disconnect the bumper skin to make things easier.

 

It was my first experience with removing/installing headlights. Sure seems like the design could be changed to make it easier.

 

All of my Toyota trucks have been a PITA to swap the headlights. If anything I think each generation gets worse than the last.

 

So where are people relocating their horns to these days on supercharged trucks?
I had to drop mine down lower near the lower bumper- only place I could find that would work.
It sounds terrible.
Any ideas people? it is driving me nuts!

 

The pod holder???

 

I went low. Added some wire from the existing connector and used some holes that already existed.

 

Boost juice!! Got the water/meth kit install finished.
70degs today. With water/meth off 7psi and Afr 11.0. Water/meth on 8.5 psi and Afr 10.6.

 

Really! I didn't think more boost would be an outcome.

 

The water/helps seal up the rotors on the SC

 

What's this about removing the coating on the rotor...

 

The methanal is corrosive and can strip the coating. But I'm running a 50/50 mix. People having issues with the stipped coating are running 100% methanol

 

You going to leave it on all the time or just for the strip? Also, inlet air temp drop?

 

Just leave it on all the time.
Intake air temps for sure dropped but no way to know because I'm spraying after the MAF

 

Can't you set it to come on at a certain boost?

 

Yes you can.

 

I've purposely avoided this thread as it makes me want to spend money and that is one thing I absolutely cannot do for awhile.

I should have not read the last forty or so pages.

My truck is also up-armored rolling around on KM2's, and while it's my first F/I vehicle, I knew enough to not expect a race truck.

That being said, every time I hear that whine I smile.

Whenever I hear someone say it's a waste of time, money, etc because "should have gotten a full-size" or some other variant of that argument, I politely explain that I don't care and my balls are exposed for sucking.

LS engine. One day.

Did not know this. Good reference material.

Thanks; this is on my "Eventually" list.

Ooooooh.

It's both. Expansion at the goodies. Retraction at the lack of owning said goodies. Think of:



Painful but zero net effect.

MSR-H is where I've tracked the motorcycle. Wouldn't mind running the course in a vehicle; do they run it clockwise or counterclockwise?

COTA or Leguna Seca would be a dream come true.

Actually, to run my CBR at the Isle of Mann is on my bucket list. One day.

Love those BFD's. I have the Countersteer's but I'm tempted more and more by the BFD.

Harris and Galveston both are.

It is depending on methanol concentration, mainly to polymers and elastomers. More water in the mixture and I'd start thinking about the mild steel that comes into contact with.

This. Regular inspection and surveillance will alert you to any issues before they become problems. It comes down to whatever you want to mess with long term IMO.

As with anything after market automotive related, it's all about dealing with friendly folks.

I see we're sort of kindred spirits, except I'm not ag.

 

Well, for right now, the LT is first on the list, then getting all my electronics in order (already sitting on the shelf) then I'll be saving up for a regear and installing a 9" rear, THEN, I might look in to more power. At this point I feel like I'm at that point of no return where the more power I add the less engine reliablity I have. Yeah I can just keep on adding stuff and get up above 350hp, but sooner or later I'll blow the engine up and have to rebuild or look at a bigger engine, and I'd like to have to have my truck fund built up enough at that point that I'm ready for it and not have to scramble to get the truck back on the road. I'm pretty sure once I regear I'll be pretty damn happy with the power at that point. Right now with 34s the truck is feeling mighty sluggish again.

 

9" rear end?

34's?

What are you running?
