Exhaust, lift, or air intake

Which one first. Lift exhaust or air filter intake

 

Lift. Don't bother with an intake.

 

Lift.

What kind are you looking at?

 

Exhaust can be done for $100. That's what I did. I bought this and had a local muffler shop weld it in place of the stock muffler. Sounds great IMO, but definitely loud and drone-y. Not for everyone.

 

Lift is the only one on that list that improves performance

 

Who said he's trying to improve performance?

 

Actually not true, depending on what he's looking to do exhaust wise. Headers increase power, and the Dynomax super turbo muffler has been proven to as well.

 

Intake does nothing on Tacoma's OP. Better off saving that money

 

What type of lift. I have the 11prerunner TRD package. Just put on new tires. They are 265/65/17. I don't want to tower them

 

Look at Bilstein 5100s or Old Man Emu

 

Thanks guys

 

Are they aggressive AT tires or just street tires?

 

You put your pants on first and then your underwear. Enjoy the truck as it is until the new tires need to be replaced. In the mean time read and read and read some more on what lift to do. Coils, 5100's,OME, AAL,s, Dakar's. Then what tires fit best with suck said lifts and trimming that will need to be done.
I wish some one would have told me this when I started. I would have gone 16's instead of 17's (more tire size options). 0 offset rims instead of -12 offset.
I bought one and tires first and then did lift. Iam at 23 1/2 all the way around and I am stuck with 265/70/17 because of the -12 offset on my rims. Next size in 17 is 285's can't fit them without chopping some trim. I didn't even know about TW when I got my truck. Lift wise I would do the same but rim and tire I would have gone 16's 0 offset 285/65/16. just my experience

 

They have the same pattern as the nitro terra crapplers

 

At least 10hp gains cause it says nitro

 

I'd be more for power. IF you lift then you risk possible driveline vibes which can be a bitch to diagnose.

Do headers and full exhaust. Consider the SC route..

 

lift it. exhaust and intake are not as important. i.e. not much for hp gains. you being a prerunner look into maxtracs. 4inches of lift for under 600 bucks

 

Sounds good

 

talk to Marie @HeadStrong Off-Road she'll help you with any ?. also look into this

Lift for sure. It's the only one that actually does anything useable.

I'm lifted. Bigger tires. Air intake, headers, regear, muffler, still slower than an old Corolla.
