    2020+ 4runner ecu flash

    Magnuson came out with the 2020+ SC and Tune right after your post. Anyhow, VFTuner does have tunes for the 5th gen and, Magnuson is now using VFTuner for the SC tune. Otherwise, I think your only other real option is your 3rd option and to find someone willing to tune it. Do some serious...

    Stupid me, strippped sway bar bolt

    I decided to Tap mine. Those dumbazz tack welds are weak on that thread or nut they put up there in the frame. If the tack weld breaks or something gets stripped, just go ahead and cut the bolt out. I tried many other methods that usually work but none of them did work and I ended up having to...

    i think i want a magnuson supercharger, but questions

    One last thing, if you are mechanically inclined I'd say do it yourself. You will learn a ton about your engine which is always helpful down the road. I am an engineer, I build complex machines for a living and I grew up working on vheicles - my grandpa was the senior engineer at two GM plants...

    i think i want a magnuson supercharger, but questions

    Mine took 2.5 (10-hour) days total to install including updating the tune, testing and test drives. I did it solo and was careful and methodical.

    Also, the new Tune seems to have some sportiness to it but, that might just be the "I can run faster in new sneakers effect". Magnuson encrypts their Tune so I do not know the details of what excatly they did. I am thinking of asking if they can combine some of the Tune features from VFTuner...

    I installed mine last week. It is awesome! As the computer learns it is getting even better. When you fill out your form on Magnuson for the Tune there are fields to fill out on what options and aftermarket stuff you have installed. I recommend taking Pedal Commander Off, at least for a few...

    Mods that should be done at the same time as magnuson supercharger install?

    I did mine last weekend. When you have a vehicle problem, if your first thought is to take ito a mechanic than you should have someone install the SC for you. On the other hand, if you are like me and never let anyone touch your vehicles than you should do it yourself.

    The new SC for 2020+ 4Runners has a coolant tank there. If you have any electrical bus stuff there you will have to move it. The stock secondary Fuse box also has to be moved. I am working on a custom bracket.
