Supercharged 4Runner question!

Hey all! I have a 40th Anniversary Edition and I've supercharged it with the Magnuson supercharger. Are the cold air intakes from AFE and comparable companies compatible? Any input would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

 

Yes.

 

Very cool super charger! Grats.

Can you do me a HUGE favor and take a few pics of the right side of the super charger including the space to the right to the fender? With multiple angles.

The space between the battery and the firewall. I've moved some stuff around there and am curious if that might impact a super charger install.

And how's the car feel now?

 

I am not sure....but the plumbing might not be compatible as it connects to the lines that go into the throttle. Magnuson says to keep everything stock because most likely their hoses around the intake system are sized for the stock unit and not aftermarket CAI. Just my 2c.

 

There's a blower specific intake from AFE.

 

I have the AFE intake. My TRD wouldn’t fit (or so I was told).

 

Yes, picture is above

 

I will let you know, i'm in the middle of my SC install now. Think i can get the TRD to work, may have to extend the fresh air and vacuum lines to feed from the front.

 

i had same concern as you about the heat exchanger coolant tank on the magnuson taking so much space on the the driver fenderwall side. I have my ARB compressor mounted back there with a big electrical system and know there's no way i could fit everything......looked around for tank brackets, or if anyone had relocated it and came across this FIGS Engineering tank thats a direct fit but mounts up out of the way. you could also use this tank and mount it wherever and just run some longer hoses

Sweet thank you! I'll look it up!

 

Here ya go! The only thing I could see that might need to be rerouted would be the intercooler lines that come out of the back top side of the supercharger. Lines run between the battery and the engine. As for how it feels it's a HUGE difference. If I drive gently I get better gas mileage and if need to pass someone it's much easier and the little whine of the supercharger is HIGHLY addicting lol.

 

Thanks for the pics that's very helpful!

Very cool dude. I'm very jealous. Very happy for you and your 4Runner!
