Magnuson TVS 2650 installed

Have been posting over on the General supercharger thread but figured instead of clogging it with my random shit id start this one. Started my search a few weeks ago with first contacting Magnuson . They showed 4 to 6 week wait with shipping. So visited Vivid racings website. They showed in stock and free shipping. Was about to pull the trigger but found out through Magnuson that Figs engineering out near me in Colorado had stock in shop. Called them up and confirmed. Next day I purchased through them. Following day they confirmed I was good to pickup the kit. Was originally planning on installing in my garage so I tore into the kit. Received an email back from figs with an offer to install the kit. Let them know the price for install was a bit steep, figured I'd save some money for other parts. They cut me a deal and let me know id be the first Magnuson TVS 2650 installed kit in Colorado and wanted to video record the install. So next day loaded everything back up and dropped the truck off. They tagged teamed it over at High Altitude Motorsports, installation was completed and I picked the truck up yesterday. Truck is running beautifully! Been putting in miles since and waiting to really get on it after this storm passes. I will keep everyone updated once I can get some data logs for fine tuning and some dyno runs. Here's some pictures, some that I've already posted over in General supercharger thread. Furthermore keep an eye out for their videos, was told they will be posting it up after editing.

 

Good call for not going with Vivid racing. I ordered new steering wheel for my friends suv, they sent me a used one, and when asked for a refund or replacement, they said they won't do it and the person responsible for it is no longer working with them, yep that was their excuse. So for a $1000 wheel had to spend another $300 for a new trim. Fuck those guys

 

Jesus Christ seriously? Well thank god that it fell through that's some bullshit!

 

So fast it motion blurs when parked.

Sweet build. Welcome to the party. Looking forward to hearing about it over the long term.

 

Yes sir. Looking forward to those dyno runs pics, bad ass truck!!

 

Time to join the draggy club

 

Yes. Especially parked directly under a pole light with glare.

 

Thanks man Appreciate you!

 

I'd wonder what 1/4 times id run with bed rack, softtopper and flyrod vault

 

Easy way to figure it out!!

 

@Silver17 is the key holder.

 

You would be very surprised.

 

I know these 5.7's run some mean times! Can't wait to get some tuning dialed in

 

That Fig guy is cool. Sweet shop he’s got. And a nice blown tundra.

 

Congrats on the blower and install.

How much coolant did the 2650 take? Doing my install on Saturday and coolant is the last thing to work out. TIA

Nice setup. What kind of monitoring and gauge are you using? Can you please elaborate?

 

The device itself is Scan Gauge 3. Reads OBD data. Very easy to set up compared to older models. Lets you monitor three screens worth of data and lets you set alarms. Pretty good level of customization.

Well worth the money.

 

I’ll second this

I use one as well

one screen is transmission based data(towing)
One screen is hoonage based data
One screen is mileage based data

Once you get tuned, you dash mileage will be wonky, and the scanguage is quite accurate

 

If we don’t see dragy times in short order, I will forced to post my dragy meme.

 

So if I go with the Scan Gauge 3 I don't need the PSB-1 Powersafe Boos Gauge anymore? Thanks guys. I am trying to figure what is the best setup available so I can plan accordingly during my 2650 install.

 

My guess is 4.5 based on Mr. PappyCappy's run.

 

The Scangauge can't read boost and you'll still want a wideband O2 to read AFRs.

The stock O2 reads a more narrow range of AFRs and pegs out when the AFR gets out of range for it. The wideband lets you see how fat or lean your fueling is over a broader range.

 

For theatre of the mind


I use the SG3 mounted just left of steering wheel+ afr and boost mounted on top of steering column

all dash gauges still visible

 

I think this is the exact route I will be going. Thanks much

 

Yeah I just need a dragy lol. Shit is running like a SOB!

 

You'll still need a wideband to monitor air fuel ratio and something for boost. PSB1 does both.

 

Spirited run with TRX today...... And with the Downpipes screaming he knew something serious was going on haha

 

You rang? It’s called taking them to capplebees.

 

That coolant hopper is MF'n awesome. I use something similar(but much smaller) to bleed the brakes on my mountain bike but never seen one for coolant.
