    Intake, exhaust, lift. Typical stuff.
    When your check engine light turns on, check your MAF. I had to clean mine a few times the first 2 months when doing this.

    Thanks for the heads up....did you have to reset your ecu after doing this? ( pull the negative side off the battery)?

    yes.... but when I installed my deckplate, I actually still had problems with the engine running lean and then flooding itself.... (this was a few weeks after I pulled the negative side off for 20 mins)

    Reseting EFI fuse fixed that though... soooooo you might want to reset that as well.:)

    There should be a diagram on your fuse box that shows where the EFI is...

    And don't pull the big one, just the small one. I think its 15a????? Someone correct me if I'm wrong, please.

    It's an 89 Toyota Pickup. I got some stuff done to it.. FJ axles going under it soon.
    Pull EFI while it's running lol..it's better IMO.

    EFI fuse while on vacation, good theft prevention method for cheap..most dimwits trying to steal a Toyota won't look for fuses.
    My buddy actually pulls his EFI everytime he parks his truck at Bart or anywhere he is gonna be for longer then half a hour.
    Except he doesn't do it under the hood, thanks to me :D
