URD Supercharger Install on a post-09 Tacoma

After weeks of avoiding doing the inevitable I took out my Pre-09 ECU (From a salvage yard) and my Adapter that Kris made me and I finally plugged it all in. I was worried to death that doing the ECM wrecking yard OBD-II trick was going to fry my wiring harness, but after 30 nail biting minutes later the truck started up like I had the OEM (6Plug ECU/Post09 ECU) installed. I drove the truck around, mind you I’m a 6 speed manual Kris has the automatic, and everything worked the way it is suppose to. No check engine lights, no trouble codes, lights, back-up camera, hazards, 4high, 4low, everything works. During the ECM wrecking yard 30 minute trick, some lights on the dash will turn on and off for the entire 30 minutes that’s normal. I also heard a high pitched whine from the engine bay; I’ve never heard that before. Just let it go and the truck will start up in 30 minutes time no problem. A++ Kris is the man, now I just need to buy the URD Supercharger haha

Just as a side note, since I don’t have the Supercharger yet, I wanted to go back to my hardwired Post09 OEM ECU. You will have to do the whole ECM wrecking yard 30 minute trick again, but after that it was like I never even use the Pre09 ECU.

Still WTB a harness so I can plug a UCON in lol

 

Like Kris said the hardest part for me was hunting down those 5 damn plugs. Getting the Post09 and Pre09 ECUs isn’t hard. Those damn plugs are worth their weight in gold, apparently. Now that I’m confident in doing the ECU/ECM 30 minute trick, I want the URD Supercharger that much more haha. Now that the TRD Supercharger are not available, I’m glad I went with Kris on the URD/Adapter route.

 

Damn. Well, I just want UCON for tuning purposes, with all of my mods I'm pretty sure I can eek out a good chunk of HP from the 1GR

 

Someday I might upgrade to the URD, but I'd have to have the UCON at that point because of this damn rich ass Toyota ECU reflash

 

Well done Ninj. Bravo sir.

 

I appreciate the support, but it was all Kris I gave him all the parts he needed and he worked his black magic voodoo.

 

I'm commending you for following through. Kris has already been given the for this great write-up for the community.

 

Thank you I appreciate it Torspd

 

So wait....Is this a 2nd confirmation of a successful 09+ conversion capable of using the UCON?

 

I'd love to see someone try this on a 2012 or newer... I know the TRD fit kit was different for those trucks and I'm wondering if the URD supercharger likewise is 2005 - 2011 compatible but the redesigned front end might be a problem?

 

If someone makes me a harness, Id be willing to buy a UCON and give it a shot and if it works...TRD Supercharger for Sale

 

PM Kris

 

Number 2....who's going to be the 3rd? I know Justrynarip was working on an adapter with extra long wires.

 

Or Im waiting until i can afford a URD SC and then ill look into it? Id say I'm right around 300 RWHP or will be damn close with headers. I'm gonna go ahead and get my long travel all installed next before i try to dive back into major ecu mods, but its on my list. I'd love to be jamming around with 400+ hp in a long travelled truck

 

Pretty sure the Mark 3 is pushing 400...

 

why are you wanting to switch from the TRD to URD?

 

It is, and more. More efficient and more CFM per psi than the TRD.

 

MOAR POWAH

 

This.
