    Did you verify your exhaust cam gears were appropriately timed? I'm surprised by this...

    I believe so are you able to tell in the logs? I sent you a set on sat. I would not count that out though.

    2.8

    Yah I was considering that but still expected it to be faster than a 3rd gen. It was lackluster when I drove one.

    Hahah back to stock! But there has to be more at play here.

    There is. It's your stock pump which is junk. :D

    Unless you already swapped it out?

    I agree with Justin here. You should had DEMOLISHED that turd gen unless he was running a blower or turbos as well, but that would be a super rare bird to come by as the majority of taco owners don't want to boost their junk, especially the turd gen dudes because they are afraid of starving their engine of oil and voiding their warranty.

    :rofl:

    Not for a built 1GR with pistons and rods.

    It is high for the blowers RPM range though unless he's spraying meth.
