General Supercharger Thread

Are you supercharged?

 

AFE Conversation update attached-

 

Is he having issues with the AFE filter collapsing under boost, or another brand? They’re a lot thicker and more rigid than other filters it seems.

 

He was having issues with both oiled and non oiled AFE filters

 

I'm having issues with my oiled, may need a new frackin MAF if cleaning it doesn't fix it

 

How much oil you using lol. I've been using oiled filters forever never had a maf issue lol

 

I was kind of wondering about this but figured that by now any issue would've been addressed already. I was comparing my AFe Dry vs a TRD oiled last weekend, and the TRD one was super flimsy compared to the AFe.

sub'd....

 

Interesting. Last time I checked mine everything looked great. If you don’t keep it clean I could see any filter getting sucked in though.

 

Not yet, but have the TRD main assembly sitting in my garage. Just a matter of time

 

Guess I need to duct tape the go pro inside the intake box and go for a few rips lol. I just cleaned it also after the dune runs over the weekend.

 

I don't know how much oil they used came preoiled.

 

Ok thought so. You shouldn’t buy the future AFE intake unless the MAF housing is larger than stock diameter.

 

For sure. But if they are r&d'ing it off a s'c already I have plenty of confidence it will be. The AFE Momentum GT for the tacoma was larger than stock and required some tuning also.

 

Ok went for a drive GoPro in the box. Note that I just cleaned this filter. I didnt see any collapsing but doesn't mean it won't happen like others have mentioned. Sounds cool lol

Damn I wish they whine loud like that lol

 

NSFW VIDEOS GEEZ

 

It's loud lol

 

My, um, smile could only get so big watching that. Tag it ASMR and upload it to the tube and get rich lol

 

HAHHAAHHAH

 

My new ring tone lol

 

That sounds so badass! Almost enough to make me want a hot air intake, just an open cone filter lol. Would run like crap but would sound sweet.

 

LOL, this is awesome. I didn't notice any flex to the filter at all...

 

Nope not that I could see.

 

AFE Filter/

$94 31-10146 aFe POWER Magnum FLOW OE Replacement Air Filter w/Pro DRY S Media for Toyota Tundra 07-21 V6-4.0L/V8-4.6L/4.7L/5.7L #31-10146

31-10146 fits the maggy airbox. I’m hoping this will resolve my MAF issue.

 

A couple of pages back, a few of you posted some 0-60 times.

I was able to dig up some times from car magazines for comparison (although they have the shortest and lightest Tundra available)
0-60 - 4.7 seconds
Quarter mile - 13.5 seconds
https://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/a16581255/toyota-tundra-trd-supercharged-first-drive-review/

Motor trend states 0-60 in 4.4 seconds
https://www.motortrend.com/reviews/2008-toyota-tundra-trd-supercharged-test/

Stock tundra (double cab, not single cab) runs 6 seconds 0-60 and around 14.7 in the quarter mile

This is with the TRD supercharger which neutered HP by 50? compared to the Magnussen and Stage 2 Harrop.

I expect better 0-60 times from you guys! I know there are a lot of variables and how times are reported, just busting your chops here.

 

Sounds like a formula 1 car.

 

Wish mine would whine at all. My Tacoma screamed. My Tundra I can't hear a thing. Pre-headers I could hear a tiny bit of whine. From what I've read the newer style SC's are just super efficient and therefore don't make as much noise. I should do like an electric car and just play a whine through my speakers.

That is just as bad as piping in engine noise in the new models!! I like Whipple’s videos. They whine so everyone can hear it!!!!

 

If my truck was 100% stock off the showroom floor like the test vehicles, but had the supercharger and related mods installed I think I’d hit those numbers. Heavier larger tires and add ons, and all that necessary crap I keep in there at all times really adds up in extra weight!

I’ve seen some say the TRD advertised power numbers are under rated. I also think the magnuson numbers are overstated since they probably took the time to dial in a good tune on the engine they used for their advertising numbers, but their canned tuned for most trucks leaves a lot to be desired. The power on the TRD/Magnuson all comes down to the tune since the blower is otherwise the same.
