    Has anyone actually had their Taco on a dyno with the K&N cold air intake? I put one on my '13 V6 and can feel a little pick up and increased noise (I like the noise) at 3k+ RPM plus a couple extra MPG, but not overly amazing. I put the OEM air box back on with the K&N air filter and got similar results without the noise. Kind of wondering if it's actually worth the price of the intake versus just the air filter.

    People are pretty much split 50/50 on whether or not adding an aftermarket intake is worth it. Sounds is good but HP increase isn't something you are going to feel, but many claim that it's going to mess up your MAF sensor.

    The cold-air intakes regardless of brand typically do two things: 1. space out the MAF sensor 2. delete the resonator in the OEM airbox so it's louder. The cold-air intakes do flow more, but you need a turbo or supercharger to take advantage of it.

    Nice badge and tires. Looks familiar, lol. FYI, if that's the same badge as the one I got from Amazon, watch the color inserts. The red one fell out of mine after a few months.

    Not a problem if it does....I'll paint the whole badge red. I sprayed the hardware with Rust-Oleum Rust Reformer. So if it begins to rust I'll replace it with some stainless.
