Bringing this 1999 Tacoma Back to life

Nice

 

in for the turbo build, gonna be sick man. Looks amazing thusfar, great job!

Always contemplate doing turbo instead of LT on my truck in the future. Heard u can run the 2.4's on stock if u keep PSI low about 7ish

 

To my knowledge, head gasket and arp head studs with a great ECU on a 2.4 you’re good for around 18lbs of boost. Sadly I have the 3.4L going for 9lbs should see somewhere between 300-350whp. My supercharged 3.4 made 280whp and it wasn’t enough so off to bigger and better

 

You deff build some bad ass trucks from the looks of it

 

Everybody has their own taste, thank you for the compliment!

 

Clean truck!

Check out @mjbtaco 's thread, he has a slammed '95 that he's currently turbo charging.

 

I’ve been following his build for a long time. I’m glad he still has that thing! Is his a 3.4?

 

Yeah that truck's been around for a long time, his is a 4 banger.

 

Got damn the thought of that much boost sounds so much fun. I'm still stock so squeezing another 80-100 hp out of the truck would make it feel like a damn bullet haha.

2.4L doesn't do too bad tho, just gotta make sure u have a MT and ride RPM's for when the motor starts with power. Cant wait to see the build as it progresses my man.

 

To my knowledge he has a 2.4 with the 8 port head, should be a bad little truck when he’s done with it. 3.4L like my truck alittle too expensive to make that kind of power that’s for sure. Was thinking of LS3 swap but Im dreading the wiring process and I love my luxury A/C

 

KOracing sells a 2.4 turbo kit, I wish the 3.4 were the same. CXracing is the only kit I could find, had to buy new wastegate, BOV, turbo and all those goodies

 

wow, that black lowered truck looks amazing !

 

Turbo is fun! You could always go Supra motor, I'm sure you've seen that S-Runner too

 

You got lucky to make your first post, on this whole message board, about a doooooope taco

 

It's a 2.4. Let me know if you need LCA plates for the QA1 install! Good start to the build.

 

Are lowered trucks real popular or common in Hawaii?

 

I actually do need a pair. I also had custom leafs on my s runner can’t seem to find the site anymore though. It’s a mono drag leaf about 1/2” thick.

 

It’s a dying breed. Not too much around anymore. Well I shouldn’t say not too much, but lifted trucks are such a big scene compared to it

 

Let me me know bro, I got you covered.

 

Once I order the QA1s I’ll send you a PM for your PayPal How’s the turbo build going? KOracing kit or you piecing it together?
