Awesome write up!

I want to pick one up and tackle the install myself also. I just wish the kit was around $5k or so; would make it easier for me to stomach, but I bet I still end up buying one eventually anyways.
 
So I ordered magnuson today lemme ask how long were bolts for extractor as the link only goes to mcmaster carr also do you have or sell the bracket you made? Thanks man. Im doing this myself with help from your write up
 
Glad to finally see a write up for a DIY’er. I did my instal on my 3rd gen and it wasn’t too bad. The 5th gen kit definitely seems more daunting but doable for a solid at home mechanic.

How’s the noise? The 3rd gen kit noise was intoxicating.

Noise? From the supercharger? It’s very quiet. Very OEM. The only time I hear it is around 3-4K RPM, then I hear a little bit of whine from the blower. I wish it had more whine to it.

supercharger install radiator upgrade

While installing the SC I "plan" on installing the CSF aluminum radiator at same time. Would that be a smart move or adding extra problems? TY for this entire write up again and was thinking of replacing trd pro airbox with the AFE Momentum GT cold air intake unless thats wasting money My only concern is will the AFE hook up to safari snorkel no prob.

That's cool. I like the blower noise. Was hoping it would be more pronounced than it seems to be on the 5th gen.

If I ever win the lottery, that's exactly what I want to do. Can you keep us updated on your progress?
 
Mishimoto T Stat install

Im curious if anyone has the 411 on what tubes the mishimoto thermostat needs to be coupled to. I can guess But guessing sucks. Thanks
 
Very nice write up...the kit is very quiet. I only hear the whine when really digging in on it. So far no regrets.
 
Still NA for 2020/21/22 I know they were waiting for the ECM crack. Anyone have any updated insight on release date?
 
First time poster.

I was searching Magnuson and Auxbeam install and glad I found this post.

I know it's a couple of years old but how did you design the bracket for the Maggie coolant reservoir? Just had the supercharger installed and now i'm looking at installing a system similar to the Auxbeam AR800. Now there isn't room. Any help is appreciated.
