    They may cancel by default if we don't hear from them. Making you and several others runners up.

    They're probably users who don't get on much but right now it's in their best interest to get on so they see this.

    You're tuned so you're good. The computer adapts pretty quickly to them so tuning is not really needed.

    If you are doing it on a hot engine watch your freaking fingers because the surrounding metal is hot as shit!

    As for other tips, disconnect the CMP plugs for easier access, it's not required but it sure does make things easier.

    So remove the intake, unbolt the TB and move it aside, disconnect the surrounding plugs in the area, 2 10mm bolts, remove, replace, reverse for install and you're done.

    Get you a racheting 10mm combo wrench and it makes like INSANELY easy.

    I got the procedure down to like 5 or 10 minutes by the end of it all since I took them off and put them back on so many freaking times.

    @who done it wants to know if these solenoids will fit the gen 2 1GR dual VVTi trucks. I can't remember personally. Maybe someone else can answer that for me?

    Dual VVTi like the 4runners 1gr? I didn't think that any 1gr Tacoma came with dual VVTi. Only intake side.
