TRD/ Magnuson 4.0 Supercharger Tips, Tricks, and Mods

Front page shit right there ......to stop our fast trucks.

 

Gotta pay for some nice wheels.....it make the truck....at the outside of it.

 

It would be faster with a smaller pulley!

Badfinger
Air Supply

...And probably others.

 

Thanks haha. These complements rekindled the crush a bit, I can feel a slight tingle and may have bought the taco another season we will see

 

That it would. So what’s everyone consensus on the safest smallest pulley you can got to without going to a different belt from stock. I’m at 2.825 now

 

You may be on to something. I’ve had a white MR2 and white/silver two tone 3rd Gen 4Runner and both looked good in my eyes all of the time. The blue is love and hate!

 

It’s a color you rarely see anymore and can’t buy anymore....

 

16-current is similar but not quite

 

Not even close. Doesn't "pop" like the Speedway Blue does.

 

That’s the pulley size I came from and as far as I can tell didn’t slip the whole week I was running that pulley haha. I’ve only had this blower for 2 months so my experience is limited

Edit: I think @12TRDTacoma and a few others mentioned anything smaller than the 2.825” is very susceptible to slip on a stock belt.

 

What tune?

Why are you not wanting to change belts? Its a small amount of effort for the benefit.

What are your current afrs at wot?

 

My favorite blue is BMW San Marino blue.

 

Speaking of Bimmers, my fav blue is likely the M3’s Laguna Seca blue

 

No reason really, Afrs go down to around 11.6ish...maybe a tad lower....probably a tad lower. 14.7 at idle. TRD tune

 

You are probably good where you are then unless you want to go down the road of fpr mod, etc.
Interesting though as most with the TRD tune are significantly more rich than you are.

 

That is interesting? @JuanitoBunito do you have the stock pump. Wondering if it could be clogged or near capacity to cause it to run leaner at WOT

 

@JuanitoBunito

I must know your mods, with that being said anytime you step down pulley size I don't care if it is .1" difference for the blower, the belt should be reduced in size.

To rely on the tensioner to pick up the slack that you have created by stepping down in pulley sizes you have created a potential situation for slippage under boost. Because it costs the blower horsepower to turn the more boost it builds.

Consult with my OP in page 1 for your proper belt size. My suggestion as per usual for max effectiveness even if stepping down a few tenths of an inch, go FleetRunner green. Don't think about it just do it.

I love you @Roostfactor

 

No fires now. I was having an issue where my valet mode decided to activate for no reason. I was pulling my hair out for a couple of days, had Scott remote in and try to figure it out. He realized what it was later that evening, I turned valet mode off and ran just fine. Collected more data for Scott, a bunch of WOT in 1st, 2nd, 3rd and some cruising. He said everything is good.

 

So now you can datalog!
