i was thinking to begin with simple things like trd intake and trd exhaust, then also looking to get new sound system, is it possible to get a sub in the car?

 

Whats the best way to gain HP? A new intake or exhaust? Both?

 

Have you thought about a supercharger it would definitely upgrade the hp of your vehicle ofcourse the price is $4700 but if you tow really heavy cargo then this is the one for you.the cheap way of doing this is the air intake and new exhaust system. your preference ofcourse. do more research see what acceptable numbers and performance reviews you could find. it helps alot when you do this. hope this helps.

tune it meaning?ts not just a bolt on thing?

 

Reprogram your computer.... adjust fuel to match additional air intake.... The additional power will see an increase in gas consumption.

 

Two of my friends have the supercharger from TRD and they installed it themselves, they are Toyota nuts,and do all service themselves. They also installed larger injectors, I believe and they like the added punch in passing.
They have installed rear sway bars, Bilstein shocks etc. Mostly performance and audio mods, no exterior add ons. They also reprogramed the comp.
One factor was that they had to jump up to premium gas. I think in the spring they are going to put them on a dyno and see exactly what the added HP is.

 

oh good to know

Welcome. There are several options for subs. I have two JL micro subs behind the rear seats. Those things kick ass! Only 8 inchers! I love them
