TRD Supercharger Installation Manual Supplement?

I think 5061038 / K061037 for the belt (again, I tried a few before I found what worked for me) UPDATE: the 5061038 stretched and started to squeal overtime. I moved to a 5061033 to make it more snug. Will continue testing with this belt.

BKR7E-11 for NGK plugs

Pulley is Dayco 89003 for the one with the raised edges (I used two of these) and 89007 for the smooth one.

Thanks for your response. How you like your Supercharger. Can you tell the difference? Also, Would you happen to have Parts for all the Pulley and Supercharger Belt? The ECU’s just plug and play?

My LX is a fat pig with all my weight and 35’s. The supercharger basically brought it back to a stock feel. I’m hoping when I do lockers and gears it will make it feel even better. I can definitely feel the difference but I wouldn’t say it made it “quick” it just feels like the LX dropped a few lbs and more like a stock 100 when accelerating. Maybe not the answer you wanted but my setup is probably different than yours and on a stock 100 I’m sure I feels great.

After gears I might do unichip over the TRD ECU’s but they are pulling mixture into the 12’s under full boost and 13’s under partial boost so for now they get the job done. I always run at least boost and wideband gauges because in my experience those are the two things that will wreck your day real quick if out of whack.

Morning KiPod - you think if is possible you can send some of your Supercharger in your LX. I want to go ahead to start work on my when get a chance. Just pictures from Front side/Back side and Top. This would help a lot to get start on it.

Appreciate it again.
 
It’s pretty tight (and dirty) in there but here are a few I just took. The last one in the rear shows the extra fuel injector line and how it snakes around the coolant tube. Kind of hard to see but once you start assembling it will make sense.

Appreciate very much and these will help me get start my installation. I could fine the instructions about install the TRD ECU. Would you happen to have any of that pictures? Again I am be appreciate with these pictures.
 
I believe for the land cruiser the factory ECU is horizontal and the TRD ECU’s mount on top. For the LX470 the factory ECU is vertical and I fit the TRD ECU’s to the left. I had to move the factory ECU out of the way and disconnect the harness running to the blower motor to fit them in there but then reconnected everything just fine. Once you pull the glove box you will see the ECU, and once you remove the ECU you will see where the space is. It’s tight but it does fit.

There are two TRD ECU’s you need to install. LX or LC doesn’t matter. They both use both TRD ECU’s.
 
Thanks KiPod. So technically my LX would have total 3 ECU? Sorry just want to make sure I am understanding you correctly.
 
Thanks KiPod - if you were in the same area I’m in I would drop of you 24-pack of Beer or something for put up with my questions about the TRD Supercharge and really appreciate it

Hi KiPod - Hope you doing well. Just now finally got to installed my 4.7 TRD Supercharger and I am having trouble finding the Supercharger Belt. So Just wondering if you recall what Belt you use.

Thanks for your help in advance.

I struggled with belts a bit but landed with 5061038 (now moved to a tighter 5061033)

it’s a really tight fit and I had the revised tensioner which I think had a smaller pulley too. The way I was able to get it on (finally after much cursing) was to wrap it around all pulleys except the supercharger and the idler pulley above the compressor. Then put slack in tensioner and wrap belt around supercharger (hard). Then the belt is kind of resting on the face of the idler pulley above the compressor and I had to use a pry bar to push the belt down under that idler at the same time I put slack in the tensioner (harder). I don’t know if that makes sense but it’s the only way I could get such a tight belt around all the pulleys.

It will probably all make sense once you try it out and it just seems like it doesn’t want to fit. Fresh belts are also kind of stiff too so maybe let it sit in the sun or something.

Appreciate it KiPod. I’ll stop by auto part this morning and I let you know. The one that I tried yesterday was Gate with 2633mm and is about 1/2 inch short and tries Gate with 2701 was too long is about 1-1/2 inch longer. I will try the one you sent. Thanks again
