URD kit for 4.0

Hey all. I'm looking at a URD kit for my '09. It's the basic kit with flash tune, it's not there newer kit that seems to be more yr specific. Any opinions on there kits? I'm not trying to make this a race car, but some more power in the mountains would be cool.

Thanks for the input
Troy

 

Are you just looking for tuning or are you wanting to go boosted? If you just want a tune hit up the hptuners thread, @JustDSM can get you tuned

 

I'm looking at buying the whole kit, second hand but never installed

 

Does it come with an intercooler? Air to air.

This is the set up I'm looking at

 

Magnuson is proud to announce the Toyota Tacoma Supercharger System is now available for the 2005-2015 Toyota Tacoma 4.0L V6. The OEM look of our integral supercharger system on this platform allows for a single large charge air cooler, a larger plenum, and tapered runners just to name a few advancements. At around 6 psi, the Tacoma Supercharger System makes an amazing 305hp and 335lb-ft (CRANK SHAFT) of serious truck torque at the crank, all with CARB certification (pending).

At the heart of the Magnuson Supercharger System is Eaton’s fifth generation supercharger unit, the MP90. The supercharger system is a positive displacement, roots style pump, utilizing Eaton’s lightweight, three-lobe 60 degree twisted rotors. Cast and assembled as a single, OEM-style-manifold and rotating group housing, the unit is quiet, compact, attractive, easy to install, and requires little to no extra maintenance to the unit itself.

The positive displacement supercharger offers power instantly as the throttle is pressed. Boost pressure builds with no perceived lag commonly associated with other types of forced induction and provides a large increase in torque across the entire power band. Throttle control is linear and predictable and makes for an excellent driving experience both in daily driving and wide-open acceleration.

Since the supercharger does not compress air as it moves through the rotors, it’s extremely efficient during light throttle and cruising situations. Unlike screw-type positive displacement superchargers that are always compressing, the MP90 unit can internally bypass unwanted air, resulting in a negligible parasitic loss during cruising and therefore far greater fuel economy.

The single cast unit and appropriately sized rotating group eliminates potential leak points and allows for a slim, compact design without sacrificing key airflow design characteristics. The unit features a high-velocity flow path through the supercharger rotors and an unrestricted discharge port into the appropriately sized plenum. The large plenum equalizes flow across all ports as air feeds evenly through the low-pressure-drop, dual internal air-to-water charge air coolers. Finally, the ports are separated into individual runners, offering greater operation by eliminating cross-fire.

Internally the large charge air cooler features a louvered fin design, which minimizes pressure drop while achieving excellent cooling effectiveness. The extruded multi-rib tubing maximizes heat extraction to be carried away through the large bore coolant re-circulation lines. Externally, supercharger coolant is pumped through a large front mounted low-temperature radiator where it’s cooled and circulated back through the charger again.

Ahh. Your first post was slightly misdirecting. Made it sound like you were looking at a URD specific kit.

Well known performer for years and years. Just installed one last weekend.

If you really want to get some ideas on that kit, look through the TRD S/C tips and tricks thread.

 

Magnuson makes a good kit. Come join us in this thread:

Barely beat you to it.

 

What are the odds haha

 

I have more boost?

 

Nice, That'll take me awhile to read through!!!

 

Well I bought it, dang this truck is a money pit!

 

It'll be a Merry Christmas investment. Lol

 

Well got the kit picked up today and it's in new condition, guy I got it from never opened any of it, problem now is I've gotten a bit of cold feet from all the info I've taken in on this forum. The tuning has me pretty concerned the kit came with bullydog and that sounds like a huge mistake to even load, sounds like "Justin" has things figured out, but I'm no tech expert and I really don't want to mess up my work truck. I don't know what to do here, I'm in to the kit pretty right, can probably sell it for my investment or a minimal loss not sure. The above linked thread is great, but it gets pretty off topic, lol. Am I over thinking this?

 

Message Justin. He can tune the ecu for you if you don't trust yourself to do it. You would just have to ship him it and he will ship it back. Honestly if you have a laptop that isn't a complete turd you can do the flash with hptuners with a tune from Justin. It's super easy

 

Thank you I'll message him on Mon.

 

Talked to Justin today. Super cool guy with enough patience to talk to the dumb one. We've got a plan and moving forward.
Thanks

 

Got the install done Fri, went pretty smooth, we had to make some mods because my aux power panel was in the way of the i/c res, so we ended up mounting it on the pass side of the truck, cut the bracket, upper nipple of the i/c and flipped it the other direction ended up real clean. Waiting on the ecu to get tuned now from Justin. One question I have about the Bullydog monitor, can I use for just that, a monitor? I tried to sell it but it doesn't seem to worth much.

Thanks
Troy

 

I use my Bullydog for a monitor so I think it'll work. It's nice for reading and clearing DTC's too.

Only catch is I loaded my first supercharged tune using it then overwrote the tune with Ovtune and then went to Hptuners. Don't know if that initial loading step is required or not. Plug it into the obd and see if it just reads info and go from there.
