    Yea, for sure. I emailed Gerald on the ETA of the next batch. I'm not sure how much were in the first batch he received. Could be 10, could be 20. But it def showed interest when it was sold out in 2 days.

    I'm glad I didn't wait and just ordered the 4runner ones. Practice depinning the coil pack plug harness and extending the wiring worked out great.

    Finished up the ratiotek last weekend. Overall @mightytacoman write up and IPT video were awesome. Took my sweet time and did it over Sunday/Monday. Ran out of fluid and finished the fill in Tuesday. Will drain and fill in 4-5k miles.

    Noticeably harder shifts at lower speeds almost seems it has an issue. Shift quick and fast on higher speeds. Feels like more power after 2500. Haven’t driven much. Headed down on a 3 hour drive and on my Way back going to load the spicy trans tune now that the kits installed and see how it fairs.

    after doing it and taking my time it was fairly easy. the cam gears were more of a pain.

    Went all in and refilled with Amsoil sig. the taco is happy again and ready for more power

    also rescued the OEM gasket as it was pretty much mint and not leaking
