Mods, i need some help

I have a 2001 tacoma prerunner, i am looking to upgrade it. any ideas? anything helps, thank you.

 

is it a 4-banger or V6?

 

the V6 automatic

 

you can do the deckplate mod, its easy and adds a little extra horsepower , costs about $20

cost me about 10 ......what look are you going for??

 

im looking to "trophy" it, i was going to buy a cold air intake and stuff but i dont exactly know. i looked into that deck plate mod and that seemed really simple so i might end up doing that

 

Hmm...Let's see....

Some of these - adds 5 bullpower.


This would be awesome, but probably a bit outta the budget.


The one might be in the budget.




(I'm in that kinda mood)

 

i was just saying, it costed me like 12 or 13 i believe


if youve got the money look at the grillcraft group buy grilles, theyre pretty cool

 

i dont have that much, im 17 i work at mcdonalds and gulf power lol

 

Not a 'mod', but add a high flow air filter with the deckplate mod. K&N or AFE are pretty much the preferred options. I think my K&N cost about $50 - noticeable increase in airflow, and will last as long as the truck so it beats buying all those disposable filters.

Here's a pretty extensive list of mods, both big & small: http://www.parksoffroad.com/tacomamods/01tacoma.html#sus


Also, here's a list of goodies you can buy for it (many for 2nd gens though): http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/deals-coupons/31623-list.html

 

yeah im only bringin in about 50 bucks a week, ya just gotta save

 

thank you, yeah i was planning on investing into a K&N, i used to have one but walmart through it away haha

 

yeah, thank you for everything. ill keep posted on what mods i do

 

post up some pics of your truck...do the decplate mod with a good filter....muffler maybe? bigger tires? many different things you can do...just gotta point us in the right direction

 

Save your money for gas, maintenance, insurance & registration.

McDonalds money doesn't go very far. I used to work there myself when I was your age.

 

x2 you dont want to be up the creek if something breaks, been there done that

 

yeah, i just had all of it fixed, got hit by a big F-150, that wasnt fun. so everything is all taken care of. so now that i have it all taken care of im going to upgrade it.

 

Would I follow these same instructions for a 97 2.7l???

Thanks!

 

Yes, your airbox is just smaller so you have to have a smaller deck plate, a 3 or 4 inch I believe.

 

Go for the 4". The 3" isn't a helluva lot better than your current tube and anything bigger than a 4" can get pretty cramped to fit on the air box and avoid the wiper fluid reservoir spout.
