I use an Einstar a lot for projects, you can get them for like $750 on Amazon nowadays.

@woody can I get added to the resource group? I have 3D CAD scans of a 1UR and 3UR I'd like to share

I don't really follow, you don't drive around at WOT all the time do you? When you want to pass or jump at a stop light it makes a huge difference. If you're just cruising down the road at constant speed and not in boost your fuel economy doesn't...

They certainly don't help, but your normal driving plays a bigger role than the blower does. When you're not in boost it doesn't act any differently than a stock engine.

A company called TurboKits recently came out with one for the 5.7 a year or so ago. It's only been run on a Tundra is my understanding, so how well that translates to a LC engine bay I'm not sure. But that is also an option, my only caveat to a...

I browsed through a bit and didn't see a lot of technical comments. I have extensive experience supercharging Tundras and a couple LX570s. My personal Tundra has 305k on it and been running a TRD supercharger the last 90k. You have a variety of...

The Magnuson is better is the sense that it comes with upgraded TRD injectors which the Harrop does not and needs to be purchased after the fact. Either way I would absolutely get a custom tune from OTT, Snivilous who is on here, or another...

Last week had a lot going on, first drove to LA on Tuesday for work, worked onsite Wednesday then drove home and got home at 2am, woke up and prepped the Hilux and then drove it for 8+ hours up to Idaho to go dirt biking! Before I left for...

I would do a tune on any supercharged setup. I've done datalogs with "stage 1" Harrops where they don't have a tune, and there is a ton of knock retard happening. Which isn't strictly a "the engines gonna blow" issue, but it means you're...

+>40% is a better way to look at it. Also note that Harrop provides this data saying their 2650 "kit" does not need a tune. If you add TRD or other aftermarket injectors and a tune from OTT, or @snivilous who is the go to for most all the Tundra...

Over the weekend I added two big upgrades to the ECU, a full time data logger (since it for some reason can't do that inherently) and a bluetooth canbus module. The data logger is nothing exciting, has a memory card (and its own bluetooth...

You've come a long way with it. I'm glad more positive things are happening for you. You're fine tuning vs grenading something and rebuilding. It looks like a little Baddass.

Truck is running great! Been taking it for a bunch of drives and at this point pretty comfortable to fully open the tap on it. Went to the car meet in town for my once every 4 months visit I still need to get a dash hooked up, but the truck...

Just had the OTT tune installed on my 2022 GX460. Honestly, most bang for the buck mod. should have done this on day one. Will now be selling my Shift Power. Why is the OTT tune better than a throttle position remapping device? I now have...

I’d spring for the UC-10 as it fills the dash much better than the IC-7. I installed a UC-10 on my Tacoma and absolutely love it. However, I cannot bring myself to do it on the FZJ after considering all of the dash indicator lights that will...

Took the truck out for another 40 miles today and threw the GoPro on the back. My neighbor thinks I'm insane but new hardware always stresses me out from pushing it much. Even if it should be totally overbuilt, it's not like slapping on some...

Got the truck aligned at a friend in town yesterday morning. The camber was within 0.2deg between both sides, and the rear end thrust angle was at 0.50deg, I'd call that good enough for government work. The front right caster was at 3.6deg...

Finally got the driveshaft today! For maybe the first time ever I had to work on the truck without the lift. Ironically having a low vehicle makes jacking it up easier since it makes such a big height difference hahaha The FJ is currently...

Something that I suggested to a couple of the local pre-runners was to cut a plastic bedliner until it fit around their bed cage. Make it easy to remove, but will keep the road grime off of stuff above it. Light, and cheap (since no one wants...

New rear springs came in today, got those installed then did some alignment on the front and rear. The rear axle had to be scooted over half an inch or so, and on the front end the passenger toe was way out. Then onto some fabricating of things...

Passenger side shock I was worried about alignment in the coil bucket, from being tweaked it actually ended up lining up better! I then did the same setup as the driver's side and adjusted the shocks and settled on this spot as rode height...

I've seen the larger coil springs but I think there's not a lot of selection going on, usually 3" stuff is the standard largest since that's a somewhat common coilover size for single shock rigs. If anything I'd be worried the 3" spring wouldn't...
