Air flow

Here is what I posted and what I`m thinking Gary.
My Mom and my brother Ron just showed up for the EEA Fly in at Oshkosh.
So I have a driver for my rotor cuff surge and colon cancer in Aug. The
Sheriff`s Dept. offered to do it. But I get to save a favor. They do not
think the way that I do. Favors should be repaid. And I do not have a good
way to do that right now.
What I have is the GR1 V6. I can still buy real gas. Only 93 but that beats
replacing a fuel system .
I am not going to outlive this 07 Taco.
So, I can put money into it.
Where I live, I don`t need cats. In fact they are a fire hazard. With the
price of metal the cats sell. People actually steal them. 5.56 NATO is hard
to come by commercially.
So I`m thinking a TRD S/C will be nice for winter. TRD makes a good intake
for that.
Straight pipes bent forward of the rear wheels would be out of the way. That
is how I have the Power Wagon set up. I put expansion chambers on the SS
tubes, Kinda like glass packs without the glass. This is a 389 Hemi. And it
is not too loud if you keep your foot out of the throttle.
It does rumble. But you outdrive the sound at 55 mph.
A wimpy 4 L should not be a problem. I would not mind hearing some feed
back.
So lets say I install the TRD S/C package.
What would you boys recommend for duel exhausts?
Flowmaster seems the most popular. TRD exhaust is not getting votes. Or
should I disbelieve TRD on the exhaust manifold and just have a custom SS
system made from the headers or cylinder heads back and all with no cats?
There is a place that can do a SS custom exhaust here. I`ll only have to do
it once.The platinum can help pay for it.
Should I put in expansion chambers for some back pressure? The glass
blows out of glass packs. Why bother at all?

 

you can modify the exhaust..........toyota has to prove that something within the exhaust cause whatever problems if it was to occur for warranty purposes.

 

well, yeah, its probably way different when you're adding forced induction like a super charger. kinda like adding doug thorley headers.....toyota aint gonna warranty them, for sure.

 

Screw the warranty. Let the suits fight. I just want low end power and milage.

 

put the s/c on there then...........that'll give ya all the power you need dan!!!

 

Nothing Toyota puts in writing invalidates the Magnuson-Moss Warranty act.

Federal law > Toyota's terms and conditions.

They can't void your warranty unless they can prove the modifications caused the failure requiring warranty work.

 

You make a good point. Back pressure has to come from somewhere or low end torque suffers. TRD may tell me how much back pressure I need with the S/C. But if I`m going to this much trouble I want headers and a custom exhaust. The old glass packs should give me enough. Or two cats may do it, Four is too much.
Someone needs to do some research.

 

OK, I spoke to the service manager. The S/C is no problem. The problem is from the exhaust valves back. I looked at the exhaust manifold. Despite what TRD says, there is no way that this is a header. And there is no wat to get a free flowing exhaust from then unless you are on their racing team.
I`ll try Performance Parts.

 

OK Cris. I`ll Have Hooker make me a pair of headers. They take out the frt. cats. So I am confused.

 

Shure Chris. Headers and good exhaust are always worth it in MPG.
The TRD S/C seems well designed and warranteed. So, induction is no problem.

 

You neglect the MPG gain.

 

I also need the low end torque in winter.
Also, it`s more than a grand.

Hi Daniel. Here is the price on the supercharger install on your 2006 Tacoma. $5792.50 plus tax. We will require a credit card number to order the parts. Any questions e-mail me because that is the best way to get in touch with me today. Thanks Daniel. Gary
