Common Symptoms Indicating Need for Power Upgrade

  • Insufficient power for towing trailers, boats, or loaded vehicles on grades
  • Sluggish acceleration when merging onto highways or passing slower traffic
  • Lack of low-end torque for technical off-road situations and steep trail climbs
  • The engine struggles at high altitude, where naturally aspirated power is reduced
  • Desire for V8-level performance while maintaining V6 fuel economy and reliability

 

Why Choose Magnuson TVS1320 Supercharger System

Transform Your 5VZ-FE Into A Powerhouse: The Toyota 5VZ-FE 3.4L V6 is renowned for bulletproof reliability, but its 183 horsepower output leaves much to be desired when towing, climbing steep grades, or simply enjoying spirited driving. The Magnuson TVS1320 supercharger system addresses this limitation while maintaining the legendary Toyota dependability that owners demand.

Unlike centrifugal superchargers or turbochargers, which require high RPMs to build boost, the positive-displacement TVS1320 delivers instant throttle response with maximum boost available from idle. This characteristic makes it ideal for the low-RPM towing and technical off-road situations where Toyota trucks excel. The substantial torque increase transforms towing capability, enabling confident hauling of boats, trailers, and campers without the constant downshifting and engine strain associated with underpowered naturally aspirated configurations.

Magnuson's integration of the supercharger directly into the intake manifold eliminates potential leak points while creating a compact, OEM-appearance installation. The advanced Eaton TVS (Twin Vortices Series) technology features high-helix four-lobe rotors that deliver superior volumetric efficiency compared to previous three-lobe designs. This translates to more power per pound of boost, reduced heat generation, and exceptional durability even under sustained high-load conditions.

The system's 50-state CARB certification demonstrates Magnuson's commitment to emissions compliance and engineering excellence. Unlike gray-market forced induction systems that compromise emissions equipment, this supercharger maintains all factory sensors and passes strict California emissions testing. The included vacuum bypass system unloads the supercharger at idle and part-throttle, improving fuel economy during light-load cruising compared to aggressive naturally aspirated driving.

Professional installation is straightforward due to Magnuson's comprehensive kit design. The system reuses the majority of factory hardware, with detailed photo-illustrated instructions guiding installers through each step. Critical modifications like the timing cover cut-out are template-guided, ensuring proper clearance for the supercharger drive housing. The dynamic belt tensioner assembly eliminates the need for manual adjustment, maintaining proper belt tension automatically throughout the engine's service life.

The maintenance-free sealed supercharger design represents a significant advantage over traditional roots-style blowers requiring periodic oil changes. The TVS1320 is pre-filled and sealed at the factory, with internal lubrication designed to last the engine's lifetime. This reduces long-term ownership costs while eliminating concerns about oil contamination or maintenance interval tracking.

Backed by Magnuson's 3-year/36,000-mile limited warranty and decades of supercharger engineering experience, this system represents the gold standard in Toyota 5VZ-FE forced induction. Whether conquering mountain passes with a loaded trailer, navigating technical off-road terrain, or simply enjoying spirited backroad driving, the TVS1320 supercharger delivers the performance Toyota should have installed from the factory.

FAQs

Q: What's included in the complete Magnuson TVS1320 supercharger kit?
A: This complete system includes the integrated TVS1320 supercharger/manifold assembly, dynamic belt tensioner assembly, all mounting brackets and hardware, serpentine drive belt, dipstick relocation bracket, vacuum bypass valve, installation gaskets, detailed step-by-step instructions, premium fuel stickers, and belt routing diagram.

Q: Does this supercharger system require ECU tuning or fuel system modifications?
A: The stock TVS1320 system operates on factory ECU calibration with no programming required when running 6 psi boost. However, premium 91+ octane fuel is mandatory. For increased boost with smaller pulleys, ECU tuning (Xede, Unichip) and fuel upgrades (higher-flow pump, 7th injector) are required.

Q: How does the TVS1320 compare to the older TRD/Magnuson MP-62 supercharger?
A: The TVS1320 features 30% larger displacement volume, an advanced four-lobe high-helix rotor design for superior efficiency, and improved thermal management. It delivers significantly better top-end power while maintaining the low-end torque characteristics Toyota enthusiasts demand.

Q: What is the expected boost pressure, and can it be increased?
A: Stock boost is approximately 6 psi at sea level with standard pulley configuration. Boost can be increased with smaller supercharger pulleys (URD offers 58-65mm options), but requires proper fuel system upgrades, ECU tuning, and premium fuel to prevent detonation.

Q: Is this supercharger system legal in California and other strict emissions states?
A: Yes, this system carries CARB Executive Order #D-488-57, making it legal for use in all 50 states including California for most applications. However, note that CARB certification does NOT apply to 2000-2003 Toyota Tundra models. The system maintains all OEM sensors and passes emissions testing when properly installed on certified vehicles.

Installation & Maintenance

Pre-Installation Requirements

CRITICAL - Engine Health Check Required: Magnuson supercharger systems are designed for engines in GOOD mechanical condition. Before installation, perform a comprehensive engine health assessment:

  • Fuel System: Run minimum one full tank of premium 91+ octane fuel through the vehicle before installation to purge lower octane fuel
  • OBD-II Diagnostics: Check for pending or active fault codes - repair all issues before supercharger installation
  • Spark Plugs: Install new OEM-specification spark plugs - old plugs will cause misfires under boost conditions
  • Engine Cleanliness: Thoroughly clean the engine bay to prevent debris contamination during manifold removal
  • Coolant System: Use only manufacturer-recommended coolant - the system is sensitive to corrosion

Installation & Maintenance

FULL GUIDE

Installation Difficulty: Intermediate to Advanced
Estimated Install Time: 8-16 hours (one weekend for experienced DIY enthusiasts)
Tools Required: Complete metric socket set, torque wrench, coping saw/flexible cutting tool, basic hand tools, thread locking compound (Loctite 262 recommended)
Professional Installation: Recommended for optimal results and warranty compliance
Special Note: Timing belt cover requires precision cut using supplied template - test fit before final installation

Maintenance Tips:

  • Supercharger is sealed and maintenance-free - no oil changes required for engine lifetime
  • Use only premium 91+ octane fuel - lower octane will cause detonation and engine damage
  • Inspect drive belt tension and condition every 30,000 miles using the dynamic tensioner
  • Monitor engine for detonation (pinging) - if detected, immediately reduce throttle and verify fuel octane
  • Dynamic belt tensioner automatically maintains proper tension - no manual adjustment required
  • Consider upgraded fuel pump and piggyback tuning for maximum performance with smaller supercharger pulleys
