    I've been thinking about either building the a750e or do a t56 magnum swap for the Tacoma. Most likely will build the auto since it'll be easier and cheaper.

    Idc what y'all say... Auto for 4wheeling all day. I've had my days of wheeling in a manual. No more. More comfortable and easier on parts. Now a street truck.. all day manual.

    Yup, and unless you have the 2low mod reverse is horrible when backing up a trailer in the manual.

    Asked this in a wiring thread as well but random question but does anyone know if a plug like this can be repinned or reconnected? Passenger side rear abs wires pulled out of the plug and drivers side abs wires still connected. Trying to figure out how to proceed on this one.

    Also, I followed @12TRDTacoma `s lead and went full dual exhaust a couple weeks ago. Pretty happy with it so far, seems like minimal drone and a much throatier exhaust note and not too loud (SC whine is still louder). Welds are definitely boogery in places lol.

    Dual resonators >> X-pipe >> dual magnaflows >> passenger and driver side tailpipe behind rear wheels.

    They can be repined. The hard part is finding the part numbers for the pins. You will have to go through the factory for them.
    The exhaust looks good!

    You can easily disassemble/de-pin the connector , or you can order a pigtail repair connector from the dealership..

    It was easier for me to copy and paste this link rather than copying and pasting the photos.. but here's how I fixed my rear wheel sensor connector that had an intermittent fault by de-pinning and splicing in new wires..

    I hit my limit with the Magnuson/Toyota stated installation directions for the wire tap off the EFI fuse for the Inter cooler coolant pump.

    One night in Canyonlands lasts week, I heard the pump go on at night and after 5 minutes I decided to pull the fuse and wire.
    The next morning I had 5 pending codes related to secondary air, which I cleared and they didn’t come back.

    It's 100% worth running the relay trigger to an ignition controlled source.
