General Supercharger Thread

Ahh, I see...interesting. I also have the MPVI3 and prolink, and need to hook up more than 2 inputs. From what I understand, you can use as many canbus inputs as you can wire up, as long as the canbus properly terminated. I plan to use 2 AEMNet hubs linked together to add 3 canbus inputs along with the 2 analog inputs. I just need to get off my ass and finish my sensor/gauge wiring terminations.

 

Never have I ever been so excited for a serp belt

 

time to get an HD Green unit lol

 

Gates doesn't have the cool green one in that size.

 

Awe man wish I had the mean green!

 

We cou

We could always spray paint that bitch

 

What, they don’t make them in gold??

 

Starting the install of my maggie 2650 kit early Saturday morning. Any advice going forward? Planning on picking up new plenum gaskets tomorrow while I'm in Tulsa and should have everything else i need.

 

Did they bust your wallet pretty good for that one? I kinda felt robbed on mine, but just couldn't wait.

 

No sir, I'd have to say if you need some belts get them via Amazon right now

 

Done!

 

I would get new coolant crossover pipe gaskets and some lower injector seals. They tell you to reuse the stock ones but new ones are cheap and if you damage or loose one the whole install grinds to a halt. Coolant temp sensor crush washer is cheap insurance too.

At least a couple of us have had trouble getting the brass plug out of the blower boost port. Heat helps loosen it up.

 

I've read this multiple times, I plan on heating it up a tad before i try to remove, I'm assuming they just use "red" style locktight on that thing and it needs some excitement to let loose.

Headed to the dealership at lunch time, hopefully they have all those things in stock.

 

Mine had a thick grey paste on the threads once I got it removed.

 

Good c

Good call on injector gaskets. My DW650's came with gaskets and I pinched a lower one during install and had to use an old gasket. At least a few spares would be nice.

 

Got the 86mm swapped to the 76mm. God damn belt is a arm ripper and hand de-skinner. Had to Jerry rigg/tape a socket wrench to 3/4" copper conduit and flattened it out. My breaker bar was to thick to fit between fan and supercharger coolant line smh. Here's the 86vs76vs70mm. I threw on the 76 for time being.

 

Nice job. One thing I did was cut a notch that my breaker bar with pipe extension would fit on the lower shroud. I've been running an e-fan off and on for the past 6 years and is a bit easier.

 

Good idea for tensioner access, that shroud is directly in the damn way

 

It’s easier to do that from the bottom

 

Oh yeah. I notched a section about 2 inches deep and 10 inches along the sway bar. Gave me access for crank pulley and serpentine idler pulley.
**I use a 1inch ID steel pipe about 20 inches long as my cheater bar.

 

Alright gents- I’ve been working SPD Performance on a new exhaust for our platform. Just installed mine yesterday and I’m excited how it’s come together. Some features, full 304 stainless, mandrel bent, high flow cats with the option of secondary cat delete, x pipe option on the race version like mine, additional bung welded in for a wide band for our blown setups, high clearance, plus more. I lost 1.5psi or so in boost and the truck is hauling the mail. I’ve got a an idle video then a full pull video if anyone wants to see that. Revving at idle is super snappy like a bike or coyote engine it’s wild. Hotshot will be a vendor here soon for both systems

 

We 100% want to see/hear it!! Looks terrific!!

 

Now hitting a max of 9 psi at 5280' on the 76mm. Commanding PE of 1.4 before the swap but running in the mid 11's up top. Need to tweak the tune for sure now.

 

Cold start

That's sounds great!!

 

Runs wildly different than the previous exhaust. Very pumped about that. And the boost psi proves that lol

 

Looks great Rey!

 

Start and few revs

Sounds like a tuned exhaust!! Woot woot!!

 

Now we the long pull and drive by video. Sounds great.
