    eliteracefab.com for 318.18 atm, so a touch cheaper then what I paid, although have no experience with them.

    The one I got came from jeepandtruckparts.com for $323.99

    Part number is EVO2200, recommend the dry filter unless you have a good reason to go with the oiled option.

    But do not expect much in the power gains department apart from noise, like the throttle body hiss as it opens and closes, which sounds pretty neat, also keep getting comments that it sounds more like diesel engine.

    Just gettin’ started
    Technically yesterday but didn’t finish till after dark

    Installed these RedRock side steps for better access for my wife. Although they look decent, you get what you pay for. Can’t recommend them. I’m pretty handy and these were a mess to put on. Hardware is pretty janky. They’ll do for now. Fun fact: I had to use a 8x1.25 thread chaser on almost every factory bolt hole where these install. Not sure why they were pre-galled, lol. The plastic plugs provide little protection I guess.

    Got the OTT tune with light/mild throttle response on my ‘22 TRD OR DC LB and it’s the best money I’ve ever spent on a vehicle.

    It's not always what you've done TO but what you've done FOR your Tacoma.
    I finished the walls and gave it a nicer cozy place to sleep this winter.

    Well printed out the Husky Centerline TS Weight distribution Hitch manual. I took it off my wife's Dodge grand caravan.. I followed step by step in the manual and adjusted everything according to what it said. Everything needed to be changed. Some things went up. Some things went down. In the end. I did the final measurement and when the trailer was on the hitch and only the hitch. The truck was 100% perfectly level just like there was no weight on the truck trailer hitch. Mission accomplished! Ready for the camping trip next friday. I am PRETTY sure the people from the camper store didnt have it adjusted right on my wife's car.

    That's great! Did you also change out the spare tire? How about the TPMS sensors? Did you swap them over from the stock set?

    original spare with no sensor for now. kept stock sensors in stock wheels for seasonal wheel swap. DT ordered sensors with tire/wheel order. Was the next day when aftermarket sensors synced up. both wheel sets tpms work now.

    Nice work. I did something similar on the wife's RAV4. Worked great. Which dash cam are you using?

    Not sure if the HPS air intake will make a difference, but I like the look.

    i did it too - honestly - these OTT tunes are how the truck should come. Mine was like a whole new truck.

    Although i did mine medium and spicy, which may not be everyone's thing, but the point is stock tuning is way to blaaaah and unresponsive. plus @JustDSM is super responsive and great customer service!

    If you pair this with the TRD air accelerator that fits on the input of the airbox you will improve air intake even more.

    Thanks for the link. Those look a bit more stylish than the basic black! I am surprised they don't make them with the mounting piece flat for Tacoma, doesn't seem like a stretch to do so. Wondering how it would be compromised by buying one and straightening it out. Would suck to snap it.
