    What does an HHO kit do for an NA engine?

    Afaik I'm not aware of any way to adjust the afr digitally unless you do a standalone or piggy back ecu. Look into a megasquirt

    You are going to paint that right?

    Never seen wood in the engine bay.

    Took the Wifey and kiddo out for a rip to enjoy the fall colors:

    :thumbsup: Wasn't sure haha you never know sometimes. Mine was a nightmare to put on so I would have been pissed to get it on and then need to take it off to paint again. :rofl:

    Mine was also very hard to get on! I read afterwards to do it with an almost empty fuel tank and leave the middle bolt fastened connecting the tank to the body. Guess I was just too excited to get it on lol. I'm in Oregon so no salt so it should last pretty well even with the couple coats of paint I threw on.

    1286 for what? A decent cordless impact will certainly make it easier but honestly, its not required. A breaker bar can get the job done. I'm on the west coast also and back when I installed my OME kit I didn't have an impact. Good ol breaker bar, didn't even need PB Blaster.

    Thanks, I’ve always liked these wheels on Tacomas but not so much tundras lol. Just wish they were wider, 7.5 on a 285 is a little narrow for my liking
