General Supercharger Thread

@armyoffoo Sound Clip. Please.

 

No boost gauge, I have a map sensor and fuel pressure gauge that would show the increased pressure, but I haven't finished hooking it all up yet. I know the RCF throttle body adds boost, but the headers reduce restriction, so they actually reduce boost. I need to get over my analysis paralysis and get my gauge mounting sorted so I can get some real data.

 

I'm curious how the full ARH system sounds too. I tow a fair amount and use it as a pickup, so quiet is better for me.

 

I'll see what I can do, maybe I can talk my wife into standing by the side of the road while I do a drive-by

 

Price?

 

I'll let @memario1214 comment on that if he wants it public.

 

@memario1214 feel free to PM me as well, if you'd prefer to do so

 

Found this "600+ HP Tundra" blog; I think I've seen this truck showcased to be sold on YT. Haven't dug into the build details yet but it is using a modded W/M injection kit. Though it may be of interest to folks here:

Technically, we are all at 600, at the crank!

lol

 

I’ve seen that one listed for sale on a couple of occasions on Facebook, it’s been bought and sold a couple times. The owner seems to think it’s something special lol.

 

Yeah the only thing that really stood out was the meth kit.

Scratching my head why it is feeding into the intake pre-rotors if meth and coatings don't go well together. Also trying to understand why four runners are injected but the other four aren't. Curious to hear thoughts on this.

 

It looks like 4 injection points, two per bank, pre-intake runners so probably gets even distribution. I always thought you needed to account for it with tuning, makes me want to do it now, but injection into each runner, from under the SC...lots of room under there.

 

Catch can!

Thanks Rey!

 

Oh I see. More info here:

Kit he had modified here:

Meth injection was discussed in that one engine builders episode shared somewhere in this thread, it was pretty good I thought. The manifold/supercharger manifold is not designed to flow/evenly distribute liquid droplets, so injecting meth anywhere but evenly into each runner likely will mean uneven distribution. The meth eating rotors seems to be topic of debate, but I’ve seen photos of the rotors with the rotor coating gone after meth injection, and with it supposedly comes reduced efficiency and lower boost pressure.

I don’t know how much richer meth makes the mixture exactly, but Holdener did say it had to be tuned for otherwise I would be rich. Probably not as big of a deal if you tune rich enough without it, then you’re just more rich when it’s spraying. Im just wondering how many points spraying meth drops the AFR.

 

That's what I thought as well...similar to Nitrous, necessitating an octopus of tubing to get it done and a way for the ECU to adjust mapping when activated.

 

Lines up with what I understand too.

Would love to see these rotors. In the link he claims it seals better by wetting the rotors.

 

Any check engine light with that set up?

 

Did you dyno on a hub or roller? I'm quietly hoping I crest 600whp on a 80mm pulley at sea level. I told Chris to leave me conservative since I pull a trailer. Wasn't my plan to change out the exhaust, but with Kooks headers, no cats, and Borla mufflers we'll see what happens once I hit the rollers.

 

I had a URD O2 sim before the supercharger, had the codes disabled with HPTuners when I installed the SC

 

Hub dyno at ProSpeed

 

I forgot to post the adapter/electric sender and mechanical gauge.

 

Magnuson also has a new TVS1320 coming out this year for the 3.4l v6. So now I'm thinking about a 2001/2002 4Runner Limited 4x4 and putting that in it. After selling the Tundra I'd have enough money to do that and a 2008 Tundra w/all my current goodies to put on and tow the trailer with!

Hmm....

 

Sounds like a good candidate for one of those TorqAmp electric turbos

 

I already have an electric Toro leaf blower. Can't I just use that??

 

You can if you take a video of it in action.

 

and when you try it out...set up a small section of bleachers. I'm sure more than a handful of us will show up.

kinda like...

 

Mine has no cats and smells horribly at all times.

 

One step closer to getting back to wide open throttle goodness..
