The supercharger instillation guide says to cut open the wiring harness to extend the connectors to the throttle body In its new location.
instead, my intentions are to create a jumper connection that will be plug and play.

Here is the tool needed for the terminals.

what are you extending? the TPS? best i can tell that is Toyota female sealed connector 90980−10711, which uses 1.8 pins, not 090/2.3 pins. Toyota repair wires are 82998-12620, which have the seals on the wires. Your pics show unsealed wires. but then you show crimpers making me think you are buying terminals, seals, and bare wire?
just trying to help you avoid the wrong parts. i've spent too much time pouring through the Toyota wire harness repair manual. i don't know what facebook post you are referencing and you didn't post which connectors you are getting, so maybe you've got this all figured out!
i think the IAC and TPS are the two? IAC does use 2.3II terminals with both male and female housings available. the TPS housing is only available from Toyota as Female, but you might be able to find a Yazaki (or maybe Sumitomo) housing that works. Same issue w/ the injector housings.
good luck!
good luck!

Here’s a short explanation as to how I made the male connections work. Been holding up fine for 20ish k miles now. The female was easy. I had to get creative with the male side.

They actually are. I’ve only done maybe 20k miles since install but it’s going pretty well. I had to change the way I attached the wire on the 4 pin connector (post #16) that hat the posts sticking out the back.
I initially soldered the wires to the post. The soldered joints broke after a few thousand miles.
what worked was crimping some more of the extra female metal connectors on the wire, attaching them to the posts and then soldering them on. Going for 15k miles or so.
These are what I ended up using.

Thank you for the kind words Dave. Stay tuned.
Might be over complicating this a bit. I just did mine a couple of months ago. I followed this thread from darkness to take the harness apart, splice two wires. All very clean, provides tons of length and is very easy to do.

Supercharger Wire Harness Extension
I'm in the (very long due to laziness, kids, etc...) process of installing a supercharger as I take care of various PM items. Right now I have the intake manifold off. I've replaced a lot of vacuum hoses, some EGR components that are hard to get to, fuel filter, and sent the injectors off to...

thank you. Good to know there are options.

Correct in the IAC and TPS
6 wires total IIRC
Some folks have deloomed and rerouted the wires to avoid any cutting/splicing at all.
In 17yrs the only issue I’ve had with the blower were these splices. Twice. About 10 years apart. I used crimped butt connectors.

Western union splice, touch of solder, adhesive lined shrink wrap = lifetime connection

This will give you an idea of how I’ll connect the air intake to the main unit.
I have additional length on both ends that will allow me to fine tune the fit.
The elbow on your left is a reducer elbow. 3.5” to 3”.
The aluminum coupler is 3” by 6”.
All three pieces came from HPS Performance.

Just in case, I have two style of the 3” inside diameter aluminum coupler. Both are 6” in length.
I’ve heard about fitment issues due to variances in outside diameter among couplers of different manufacturers.
Style 1 is from MRP Performance. It has a very nice machine finish and uses an undercut to secure the silicone hose. The prettier of the two.
Style 2 is from HPS Performance, the same company as all the hoses. It has a rougher “flat” finish. It feels lighter with thinner walls. It uses a rolled bead edge to secure the silicone hose.

This is a 3” outside diameter mandrel bent aluminum 90° coupler from HPS Performance.
3” center line radius.
For the elbow connecting the plenum to the upper intake manifold I’m still deciding what to do.
Option 1: only use a silicone 90° elbow securing with 2 hose clamps.
Option 2: cut and bead roll the aluminum to size, add 2 silicone couplers on each end using 4 hose clamps. (The factory design)
Option 3: use the silicone 90° as option 1, but reinforce the inside with aluminum cut to size.
All HPS silicone couplers are 4 ply. I don’t have any evidence to support this, but I feel like it could handle positive air pressure passing from the plenum to the upper manifold.

To the comments about paint earlier in the thread. My powder coater failed miserably on the color match so I ended up going rattle can over the new powder coat. The rustoleum engine enamel in aluminum was a good match. In the pic below the supercharger is original paint and the plenum and runner were repainted.
Very nice work and excellent documentation! Someday I hope to have something boosted on my rig, this thrrad may come in handy. I'm just north of you in Sweetwater, maybe I'll see you in the wild sometime.
