Test fit the throttle body to mass air flow hose. It looks like the wiring harness and cruise control cable are going to rub on something like the aluminum a/c line if not careful. @lumbee1 & @doc_random yours are routed different than mine were originally.

From post #327 @lumbee1 notes the wires were extended. I also extended those wires using splices that were soldered and covered with marine grade heat shrink. Mine was installed in 2001(!). I did not install it myself, but did add the exteneders as the harness was too tight. A dim memory is that TRD included harness extenders in later kits.
 
I'm talking about how in your pic the main harness runs inside the intake hose between the air cleaner and throttle body. Looks like that might be a better way to go as well as how you have the cruise cable routed.

The Magnuson SC instructions from Jon Bond's website show the reducing coupler off the MAF.
95% of the instructions (pictures and words) come from the TRD 2008 manual. Neitheer speaks to the wires being too short.

A coupled of MUD threads talk about extending the harness.

Just a few pictures from Slee.
Mine was "Kazuma" branded. There are some other pictures floating around on vehicles for sale.

I tried using my original harness however it was crispy and every injector connector broke. The $550(?) for a new wire harness seemed like a solid investment and eliminated any chances of electrical gremlins after the supercharger install.

It felt a bit odd cutting up a brand new main engine harness, however I can assure you that the wires won't reach and extending is the best way to address it.

Yeah, I have a plan for extending the wires. What I'm looking at is whether to put the main wiring harness between the air hose and fire wall or run it forward of the air hose like in the pic of post #334.
 
Nice. I think I’m going to have to mount the methanol pump there.
 
Installed a new breather hose. Went back to rubber.

Depinned the 2 throttle body harness wires that were short and made a loop so not create a break point to run it along the main wiring harness so it can exit with the MAF sensor wires.

The 2 depinned wires were then taped every 3 inches with a minimum of 3 wraps.
