The 3.4L TRD Supercharger Thread

I like the innovate gauge. Digital is awesome.
The dimmer is a joke though. Difference is barely noticeable so to cut down on wires running down my a pillar I left the dimmer wire cut and let t full brightness. No problems at night.
 
Saturday, replaced the rear rubber brake line with a SS stainless steel extended one and added the emergency brake cable extension bracket. Also flushed and bled the brakes. They really needed the new fluid. Installing the SS 1.2 rebuildable lift today and tomorrow.

Yeah I was curious about that. I might still put a layer of tint film over the faceplate and see how it works out for me

I think you got this thread mixed up with the "what did you do with your t4r today" thread.

Wow...yeah, this thread is for superchargers. But damn dude...you had a very busy weekend!! New stainless steel brake lines, fluid, and a lift....you my friend are well on your way to having a bad to the bone 4Runner! Congratulations....:party:


Now back to the ultra cool, but sometimes frustrating Superchargers and the 7th injector.....oh and the intimidating tuning process with all the neat paraphernalia I never knew I had to have!!

Shall we continue........:focus:
 
Boost gauge, 3 gauge pillar coming in the mail today.

7th injector kit and wide band sitting in the house waiting to find time to be installed
 
so guys i got all my stuff in the mail today. i must say i am impressed.

1. the 3 gauge universal A pillar mount ($20) is a nice piece of abs plastic molded to fir 3 gauges. being a universal i took a change on it not fitting very well but knowing i could mold it to some degree to fit, and i must say it heats up very nicely then becomes mold able like play dough, hardens and holds its shape in a matter of 30 seconds. More molding and fitting tomorrow!

NICE! almost there.
no need the tint film over the wideband, its really not that bright at full brightness but still bright enough to easily read in the day.
 
What's the third pod for?

i think ill eventually get a tranny cooler and temp gauge.

it was cheaper for this 3 gauge than a custom formed 2 gauge for $55. so i took the cheaper risk went with this one. im glad i did.

i made a mounting bracket already and fastened it to the holder so it mounts in place of the grab handle bolts.
 
Cool. Feel free to take your time. Take plenty of pictures and make a write up for me.

I might be installing my wide band this weekend.

Will do!

Now I just have to use up all my gas before dropping the tank! I might just pump it out of the 4runner and into my Camry :loco:

I purchased a 3 pod unit too. It fits ok but not at the top. I will take a few pics tomorrow. I got mine from Glowshift. It was only like $25. I may run a heat gun on it but not til it warms up a bit. It's -3 deg today :nono:

My pillar pod looks just like yours. I have the same gap on top!

i got the exact same one, (pictures above) and i molded my top, it looks alright, dont heat the middle of the 3 pods it melts and shrinks stupid fast!
 
Is anyone running an oil catch can with their supercharger?


I am. Haven't checked it in a few thousand but after about the first 500-1000 miles I didn't find much in it.
Little but not much. I do know it works because pre catch can my PCV intake tube was always wet and inside my intake plenums were always dirty.

I suggest running one.

I am also running one. Are you running water/meth injection?
