    Whatever this forum told me to do
    Radium catch can

    I use the craven speed. whatever size they ask for ...it's std.

    I have stock intake - so refrain from asking me advice on that aspect. The 80mm, @ WOT, will max out the MAF on my setup.

    SG2 will monitor IAT.

    Innovate PSB-1 is another option for gauges. It does boost and AFR together. AFR is the more important of the two , boost is just entertaining to watch.

    Congrats on the sign off! $12k isn't far off from what I quoted a guy (more or less). Figure $8k for the blower and $3k for install and tuning, so ballpark sounds right.

    I too went with the all-in-one Innovate PSB-1...installed in a more incognito location :

    20230304_170433.jpg

    I still get roughly 25% airflow thru the vent... I'm happy with it and not regretting the location at all...

    I’m happy with the gauges. The mount is ok I needed to add spacers for the gauges to fit. This is only a problem with the Aem gauges the innovates fit

    Visibility is great...I recommend getting an anti-glare film for it and you'll never have issues with the sun. One could ALSO mount it in the center dash vent on the righthand side of steering wheel in the same fashion...this spot is the easiest for sure though...

    As rey noted, no, not out of the box. The PS intake can fit but it isn't ideal.:
    https://www.tundras.com/threads/general-supercharger-thread.85513/page-81#post-2831196

    The better solution is to substitute an aftermarket intake to mate it to the Stillen box. MRP can make you a custom 8" Length 4.5" MAF ready tube or go with some other custom solution:

    They'll have to mod the Cravenspeed mounts to take the AEM X gauges but Nat Speed just did my truck a few months ago when I got a retune and headers put in.

    Most of us married men were smart enough to pay off everything first then you have money for the custom stuff,it also helps if your partner is on the same page

    Salty,do you think the FrankinStillen would be cheaper or just change it out for a TRD box

    Your situation is a little different than mine since I went with the upgraded throttle body from their "Stage 3" kit when I went with their "Stage 2" (technically I went with Stage 3 without the headers; got headers installed later). That required a larger 4.5" intake which came with the PS kit. I ended up with a modded Stillen since I didn't like the PS box.

    Since you own the Stillen box already I think it will be cheaper to keep it but it depends on the cost of the tube + filter + accessories you need to get it to work. Replacing the box will be easier overall but not necessarily cheaper.

    I would let Nat Speed know you have the Stillen just in case they need to mod anything to make it work but I think it should mate up to a stock Harrop set up if it isn't a restriction.

    Personally I would keep the Stillen but I am biased. It basically offers the advantage of having a SABM without additional cutting of the fender. IATs drop quickly when I hit the highway not so much with my other set up.

    I've used them several times now for various mods including Harrop install and related work. I looked around local in the DMV area and they had their shit together when I toured their shop. Labor is a bit pricey but comparable to VA prices overall. They've done a lot of Tundras so it isn't their first rodeo and their tuner knows what he is doing.

    Only thing I would say consider an AFR gauge (boost bros were right) and if you have the budget get a GripPro LSD. Scan Gauge can read AFRs but it is using stock narrow band or it is calculated. Grip Pro helps keep more of the power to the ground.

    Catch Can too just remember to change it.

    If you don't off road, traction bars, or something equivalent, would be nice too but you can install them after if you think you need them.

    You wont gain much from headers (+10 HP and improved MPG in my case) even though I love mine; Jersey may have stricter emissions rules than VA. The larger TB and inake will net you some HP too but that requires a new box and tube which can be difficult to source a reducer coupler for the oddball sizes.

    None of the above is necessary to enjoy the truck; Stage 1 was an impressive and noticable jump, in my case going from ~325 to ~450. Going from ~450 to 500+ was exciting but the truck already had "balls" with the base Harrop.

    I looked at just doing a stage 1 but know the fueling is an issue so you need larger injectors and a tune so cost difference is minimal. I was looking to enhance my towing performance as we have an Alaska and western trip planned in a couple years.I lived in Denver for 17 years and that air is THIN

    Stage 2 is the sweet spot

    you are going to tune it anyway, tune it once

    injectors and pulley is only $1200. Negligible

    Sorry for the confusion. I wasn't suggesting you get Stage 1 I was just saying any stage is going to be quite noticeable.
