What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

i lol'd

 

It's actually ounds pretty good.... Definately one of my favorite exhaust setups on a taco! I got to hear it in person in Moab..

 

Check my build page. There are vids..

thanks Silas

 

305k service, including lubricating the driveshaft.

Also, my Sirius tuner stopped working in both my truck and at work. I took it apart and the power button is intact, so I think it's shot. I'm going to bake the chip in the oven to soften the solder before I commit to replacing it.

On an unrelated note, what's the general consensus on K&N air filters?

 

That they suck.

 

K&N Intake = gained 2-3 mpg...sounds awesome... looks better than stock shit IMO. Says you gain 10 hp but i have not tested that theory. Got mine for cheap on ebay.

 

= = moron!

 

LOL and he has a Flowmaster.

2 of the worst mods you can do to a Tacoma.

 

Bought all my timing belt replacement parts from toyota today

 

got my pully! next is a urd idler pulley and 255lph walboro fuel pump.

 

Your an idiot
With that negativity im surprised ur not over on TTORA talking shit.

 

That's my next mod

 

Get am AFE pro dry filter. MUCH better. I've had both

 

Proven science behind my statement, what do you have but insults?

Now move along, Nothing to see here.

If you switched your intake back to 100% stock and changed your muffler to a 14-18 inch magnaflow 2.25 in/out muffler you WILL see an improvement over your current set up.

 

Braaaaaappppp

 

why all bad vibes man i had a k&n for a while it was ok but i like my airaid alot better and whats wrong with flowmaster ive got one!! all sound and no performance its great!

 

I had an eBay intake with an SPT/K&N cone filter but I couldn't stand the roar at mid throttle. I switched it back to stock and, though it feels weaker, it's much easier to live with. I don't need another loud DD. That's what the Subaru is for.

That said, I'm only referring to the K&N panel filter. I might go for it if it's worth a few ponies, otherwise I'll throw in an OEM paper filter.

Wait, who has a Flowmaster? My exhaust is bone stock and will remain that way until it rots.

 

Water pump too? Mind if I ask how much that set you back? I'm still debating whether to do it myself or pay the dealer or family mechanic.

 

Really proven? because AFE (What he is running) is nearly the same design as the K&N and same price. Yet he talks shit about K&N because he doesn't like the brand.
MY truck is supposed to get 15/17 mpg stock!
I get 20-22 mpg with my setup thank you! So please tell me why stock would get better than a 5mpg increase?
