    I’m excited for the Hyundai Ionia 5N to be finalized for production and become available… that may get me to finally ditch the Tacoma and the “beater” 2015 Leaf EV…

    Also, side benefit of V2L or whatever it’s called to use the car like a giant AC power source for power grid backup.

    Nice, no plans for me to ditch the Tacoma, but the daily for me is now an EV (I picked up a used Tesla a while back), and they are great daily. The Ioniq definitely seems like a nice option, too.

    That's why I bought a prerunner. ;) mine surprises a lot of cars from a roll. Dig it just spins but I've been thinking of solutions for that with drag tires for those half mile runs and 1/4 stuff. One the turbo is on it should be way faster.

    Even my slow motorcycle felt as quick as my K04'ed S4...it was not as fast but it was definitely quicker in the twisties but topped out just above 100 while the S4 was still pulling at 140.

    Need to find a light weight AWD option than the FJ VFM4B (I think that's the right model)

    Manual transmission? If not you could run the V8 4Runner AWD transmission

    Yes, out of the manual transmission FJ.

    Does that t-case from the V8 4runner have high and low range? If not then that could cunt down on weight.

    I'm waiting for XAT to release the Whipple s/c for that engine later this summer! Will be going on the GX470 as soon as it's available

    I have the duke 890 and I love it. My friend's 790 adventure just ate the top end. It turns out to be fairly common and make me a little nervous. I'll try and post a pic.

    Notice on the cam on the left the two lines for the cyl next to the gear don't match orientation.
