Supercharger Removal? - Going back to Stock
 

I'm new to the Yotatech board but have found it really useful regarding my current plans for my '99 4-Runner.

I'm taking off my SC (1st Gen - Gray) and returning to stock. I've searched both here and the 4x4wire board on information for taking off the SC. So far I've gathered some detailed pictures as well as the install manual for a 2nd Gen SC. Since I bought my 4-Runner used w/ the SC already installed I'm making sure I know as much as possible before going at it.

I've purchased the following stock parts: upper and lower intake pcs, tb gasket, timing belt cover, and misc. fastners

From those who have been in a similar situation, are there any other parts that I'm going to need? Has anyone done a write-up on this? Anything else I need to know before I start removing the SC?

I've got a few weeks before I do this so I'd like to get as much information as possible.

Thanks,
Shane

My main question is, why are you removing the S/C??

Yes WHY???

Well, two reasons:

1. I don't have a severe ping issue, but it does happen. After evaluating the cost of the URD upgrade, I've decided that for my situation (plus reason number 2) it makes more sense to go back to stock.
2. I am considering selling my 4-Runner soon and I think I'll have better luck w/o the SC.
