    For me, I’m looking into the most efficient and reliable blower for the 2.7L.

    The intention is to buy a rebuildable motor and transmission.

    Build it for strength Power and longevity incorporating what whatever blower I end up with, install and enjoy!

    Not really looking for a hot rod for say. But more on, enough pep that I can get around the city and in and out of Austin traffic.

    My 2.7 does all right when you get her legs stretched out. But as far as 0 to 60, I think I could out run it on foot.

    Diesel is awesome off-road and for MPGs. For highway driving it sucks really bad. Diesel will never be in the taco due to NA emission regulations, unfortunately.

    1977 called, they want their stupid odometer/trip reset stick from the guage cluster back.

    Seriously, why is this antiquated tech still in these trucks?

    they could add some more rubber on the front doors of the access cabs. sometimes i accidentally close the front door with the rear door open and it makes a loud metal on metal bang.

    Why steel. So you can spend more $$ on liner so it can be more like the current composite bed?

    Mostly electrical shit that nobody cares about.
    You are an outlier and your mpg results are anecdotal. Not representative of the average Tacoma truck.

    Haha...I suppose. Well then, would it hurt to throw a 3 cent rubber grommet around the damn thing to keep dust from getting behind the plastic cluster screen? And while we're at it, maybe upgrade to a higher quality plastic for the cluster screen so it doesn't scratch when I yawn while driving. :notsure:
