Waiting for the Great Pumpkin
At the crossroads now of installing the TRD Supercharger.
Note to self:
Has anyone identified JIS Toyota hardware part numbers to replace the generic hardware that was originally supplied with the s/c to make it look more factory?
Wondering about silicone hoses to replace the elbows.
If anyone has a recommendation for any deviations from the original instructions, please chime in.
Just a thing that I was on the coolant hose bandwagon but turned out coolant pipes seeped water, but were great for air passage pipes.
Silicone coolant pipes were a thing from the early ’00’s that proved out to weep water - so air pipes are fine, but water/liquid ones, you’re just better going w/ conventional rubber hose.
— my take after trying silicone / Samco hoses on a few vehicles & finding OE rubber > silicone for hoses that carried liquid in a DD type use.
