    I have a few sets of these Red Bullet VVT-i solenoids left from the Group Buy earlier this year. https://www.redbullet.net/

    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/group-buy-2-red-bullet-modified-vvt-i-solenoids.792053/

    This is for the single-vvti 1GR-FE engine. Introduction, explanation, theory, and dyno charts are all documented in the link(s) above.

    Red Bullet (Retail $499/pair) https://www.redbullet.net/product/tacoma/39?cp=true&sa=false&sbp=false&q=false&category_id=3
    Quantum Solenoid (Retail $600/pair) https://www.qspwr.com/collections/toyota-motors/products/toyota-tacoma

    Selling the remaining sets from the group buy commitment. $399/shipped for a pair of the Red Bullet solenoids. I have them in stock and accept venmo or paypal.

    PM me if you are interested or have questions. Thank you!

    I definitely think I want a pair of these, just might have to wait till the end of the week when I have more funds. Any extra little bit of power I can make on my engine for not too much cash I'm all about. I've also read that these should increase my Mpg's some so that's a bonus.

    Thank you for the purchases!

    Dyno chart from my truck. Before/After pulls done about a half hour in-between.

    I am curious about lower RPM horsepower and torque differences. Does anyone have data comparing Red Bullet vs Stock for 2k-3k RPM? The dyno chart provided by SUMOTNK indicates that horsepower and torque may be a lower value than stock at RPM's lower than ~4,400 RPM's.

    I noticed that as well, but I think that's just where they started the dyno at too possibly? Not sure.

    Correct. Opening up WOT was in the foot of the dyno operator at the independent dyno shop. It's not super precise but it's data that's not from my ultragauge or buttdyno. And I don't have one of them Draggy GPS 1/4mile things.

    You know @SUMOTNK as a secondary point of data if you have HPTuners you can always set up a HP and Torque PID on your VCM scanner and use the timestamp data as a way to have more information as well.

    Both pulls were logged on HPTuner. I'll have to dig it up.

    Did you have those pids enabled on your VCM scanner? Actually, since you log RPM and engine torque by default you could easily add those in post logging.
