    Thats how much the supercharger is. :D
    J/K.....Thats something you can save for. The exhaust, header, and "Deck plate", should cost less than $$650.00. Figure another $250.00 for a locker, and $250.00 for install (if you cant do it your self), and you are WAY under budget! :)

    Dont worry Furlong you are in a really nice forum here. You will gain the knowledge to make some good decisions with your mods. Chris4x4 happens to know a hell of a lot about these trucks because it's his passion! There's other guys here who have your truck and already have great mod results too! Just enjoy buddy!:)

    Do a search for "Deck plate mod". It opens up your air box to let it breath a little better. I had it dynoed on my 2.7 and it gave me almost 5 h.p.. On the V6 Tacomas (3.4) it can give 5 to 7 h.p. and it cost about $10.00 :)

    Is it a coilover? bc I know that coilover shocks can be adjusted to sometimes up to 3.5".

    if your talking about the bilstein adjustable shocks, those have 3 preload settings for the bottom coil retainer.. at time of coil installation you can choose from one of the 3 presets and adjust the height the shocks will give u. they are not adjustable how u would assume from say a set of all pro coilovers but they are adjustable each time you tear down the shocks
