Default Just supercharged my SC4

Well, it's finished, manual supercharged SC400.

It's not done yet, still need to clean up the wires for gauges, and need to get my boost and wide band in.

Once I got it fired up, I realized the front crank seal is leaking. So new one is ordered from toyota. Gotta wait for my intercooler to come in to finish up the piping.

Currently running the ten psi pulley.

I'm so tired......

It'll have to just leak oil for now, though it's leaking pretty profusely. At this point I'm too tired to care ha ha. I'll just tear it down when my intercooler piping comes in.

Scotturnot would be the go-to guy on that blower. Pretty much you would have to cut down your intake manifold and get a plate made on the M90. Also check out superrunner has done a M90 and M112. He wasn't happy with the M90, but he also blamed an apparent design flaw on it.

I followed KC95SC400's route using the Fish bracket, with a Vortech unit.

I'll take some pics later ONLY if you guys promise not to laugh at the mess under the hood.

Sorry for the huge mess currently doing plugs and wires. I had one of my coil wires meet with my cam gear, so definitely wasn't a great night last night ha ha

Yeah I'm happy with it, I need to make brackets for the blower side of it though. The blower shifts and shakes, and it causes the belt to squeal. So hopefully I get my intercooler next week then I'll do the crank seal, intercooler, and brackets next week.

I'm still waiting on my boost gauge, and wideband. I don't want to install the FMU until I get the wideband to see if there's a need for it.

As some of you already know the 1uz's run really, really rich from the factory, so I may not even need it, and if I do need it, I might be able to use a small disc, like a 2:1 instead of the 12:1 everyone likes to run.

I'm no mechanic, but I'm pretty sure that's not where your strut brace goes.
