STOP A. Preparation:

1. Before you begin, TRD recommends that you thoroughly clean the engine and engine compartment. If you don’t, grease
buildup on parts could become dislodged during the procedure and fall into the engine.

2. Make sure the engine has cooled fully before you begin.
3. To help you later, you might want to draw diagrams of your engine’s vacuum hose routing before you disconnect
anything. However, some of the vacuum connections on your stock air intake chamber may not be the same as those on
the supercharger. Study and closely follow the vacuum diagrams for your specific application included on pages 18 –
20.

4. The TRD supercharger kit has been designed to reuse most of the stock nuts and bolts. Therefore, as you remove them,
keep them with their components or label them for location. This will assure a faster, easier installation.

Recommended Tools:
Basic Tools:

• Basic Metric Socket, Allen & Open-End Wrench Sets

• ½” Wide Masking Tape for Labeling Hardware and Parts
• Electrical Tape
• A Clean Work Bench
• A Parts Tray
• Rags or Shop Towels

Safety Tools:

• Safety Goggles

Special Tools:

• Toyota Repair Manual (Available from Toyota, 1-800-622-2033)

Accessories:

36. On 2000 and earlier model years, step 36 may not be
necessary. Check the power steering pressure feed hose
clearance to the supercharger by installing the
supercharger main assembly onto the cylinder head.
When installing the supercharger, the supercharger
drive pulley and snout slides under the power steering
pump return hose. If necessary, adjust the power
steering line next to the banjo fitting on the power
steering pump. See Figure 13. The steel line needs to
be parallel with the engine centerline. Caution: Adjust Adjust
carefully so the steel line will not kink. When adjusted line here
correctly, the rubber hose that is connected to the steel
line will have clearance to the supercharger housing and
also to the lower radiator hose.

C. Installation of TRD Supercharger
53. Note: Please read all of step 53 before proceeding.
Before installing supercharger main assembly onto the
cylinder head, connect the 10-inch long bypass actuator Nose support
hose to the hose fitting in the intake chamber and the bracket
bypass actuator. When installing the supercharger, the
supercharger drive pulley and snout slides under the
power steering pump return hose. See Figure 24. Before
sliding the supercharger manifold over the attachment
studs, insert the fuel line banjo fitting through the TRD
manifold between intake ports three and four. It is
easiest to do this as the manifold is being lowered into
place after the supercharger snout is in position. Use Idler bracket
Figure 24
another person if necessary to help with the fuel inlet bolt hole
banjo fitting. Snug all the nuts and bolts to secure the
supercharger to the cylinder head. Start in the center of
the manifold and work outward towards the ends.
Torque fasteners to 29 N-m (300 kgf-cm, 22 ft-lbf)

54. Rotate the supercharger nose support bracket to align

the slot in the bracket with the idler bracket bolt hole.
See Figure 24. Use the supplied 10mm x 1.25 x 25mm
long hex bolt and 10mm washer to secure the nose
support bracket to the idler bracket. Finger tighten bolt.

55. Using the 8mm flange head nut supplied, secure the
upper L-portion of the chamber stay to the 8mm stud
that is in the bottom-side of the TRD intake manifold.
The stud should protrude through the slot in the
chamber stay. See Figure 25. Tighten chamber stay to
supercharger first, and then also tighten to the engine
mount. Torque: 20 N-m (200 kgf-cm, 15 ft-lbf). Finally,
torque the chamber stay 8mm through bolt and nylock
nut to 20 N-m (200 kgf-cm, 15 ft-lbf).

56. Tighten the 10mm bolt that secures the nose support
bracket to the idler pulley bracket. Torque: 41 N-m (420
kgf-cm, 30 ft-lbf)

57. Tighten the socket head cap screw to secure the nose
support bracket to the supercharger nose.
Torque: 13 N-m (130 kgf-cm, 10 ft-lbf)

58. Check both the power steering pressure hose and return Figure 25
hose for clearance to the supercharger snout. Both lines
should not touch the supercharger. Adjust lines as
necessary.

ports, then skip to step 64. If your vehicle has four oval
ports, then follow steps 62 and 63.

62. Route the crankshaft position sensor connector down

through the opening between intake port one and intake Figure 26
port two of the TRD supercharger manifold and connect
to the crankshaft position sensor.

63. Route detonation sensor connector through the intake

manifold between ports two and three, and then connect
to the detonation sensor.

64. Reconnect power steering idle up connector. Install the

installation is complete.

Note: In order to reach optimum performance, the

vehicle must be driven several hundred miles (usually
one to two tanks of fuel). These miles after the
supercharger installation will allow the OE ECU to fully
adjust to the additional airflow provided by the
supercharger.

Symptom
Idles rough, “pings”
(Trouble Code P0171—Lean Code)
Pings during acceleration
Low boost
Makes a moderately loud noise under full
throttle—intake noise
Rattling at idle—goes away at just above idle
Rattling at idle—gets louder with higher rpm
or louder with more boost pressure
Supercharger belt jumps across pulley groove
Supercharger belt leaves grey/black powder
on drive housing and other areas
Supercharger appears to leak oil from drive
housing

Possible Causes
Lean condition—vacuum leak
Low octane fuel
Computer has yet to adjust to
superchager
Insufficient fuel delivery
Belt slipping
Air filter dirty
Throttle not fully opened
Normal supercharger sound
Normal supercharger sound
Drive housing bearing wear or
backlash
Idler pulley bearing wear or
excessive freeplay
Misaligned tensioner pulley or
idler pulley
Damaged pulleys
Normal break-in residue
Front seal not fully broken in

Corrective Action
Check vacuum line connections for leaks and cracked ends
Review factory service manual for proper factory vacuum routing
Review instructions for proper vacuum line routing
Recheck torque on throttle body bolts
Recheck the torque on the intake manifold bolts
Use only premium fuel
Drive several hundred miles in different driving modes (not all steady-state
highway cruising for example)
Dirty fuel filter—replace and follow the factory diagnosis and replacement
procedures
Low fuel pressure—follow the factory diagnosis and replacement procedures
Injector(s) clogged—follow the factory diagnosis and replacement procedures
Check condition of belt —oily, worn, high mileage
Check/replace air filter—TRD dyno tests have shown that the TRD air filter
is among the best on the market for flow and filtering charactersitcis—
consider installing one now
Recheck and adjust the throttle and transmission cables. Be sure that full
depression on the gas pedal achieves full throttle opening at the throttle body.
No remedy. Superchargers are an air pump and the pumping action is
impossible without some noise.
Slight rattle at idle is normal, but only if the noise sharply decreases at 400-
500 rpm above idle
Call TRD for further diagnosis
Diagnose by removing belt from supercharger and running engine for less
than 30 seconds. If noise continues, source of problem is not within
supercharger.
Check the mounting and alignment of both the tensioner pulley and also the
idler pulley
Be sure that the pulleys all run true—no eccentricity
No corrective action necessary—belt should be fully broken in after 2000
miles
No immediate corrective action is necessary—seal should be fully mated to
pulley after 2000 miles. If leaking continues, contact TRD.
