    Just to back up all the positive feedback on these, i installed them on a stock motor with 285s and 6 speed. Been installed for about 4k miles so far. Right away there was a noticeable power increase from 1500-2k rpms all the way up. On my commute home, I'm able to stay in 5th instead of 4th going up a hilly road with a lot of turns. Gas mileage did go up a bit as well. Really a solid improvement.

    I'll update post 1 and the title to reflect this is a group buy thread now. If we get 10 interested, I'll go ahead and get to work.

    Ya feel free to share wherever. I tried to share it several locations a year ago when I started this but people seemed hesitant and I think they felt it was a scam or wouldn't actually work

    I feel like Toyota has the scam. If you have a 1GR-FE and you bought a cold air intake and not cam gears you are an idiot. *Edit not aimed at you Kel just people on the fence

    Negative. I'll order brand new gears for the machining. It's easier for me to calibrate then to cut used gears

    Well, a chimpanzee can install a “cold” air intake. Takes a bit more finesse to install these gears.

    I have a question about the recommended re tune once the gears are replaced. Is this something that the stock control unit can be updated with, or will the re tune need a replacement unit?

    @mightytacoman If I do not plan to reflash or alter the ECU, is this still a practical modification?


    My electrical knowledge stops at basic 12v systems.
