What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

As stated above me, this would only make sense to do if you're planning any forced induction.

There are probably write ups on it if you run a search. I did not do a write up myself. Depending on your wrenching ability, difficulty can vary. Either way, it's far from a "drop the tank, bolt on the new stuff" kind of install.

This is why I opted for a master Toyota mechanic to do it for me(my friend luckily). When messing with fuel components in or around the tank, you have to be extremely meticulous and careful not to disrupt or damage any of the EGR parts(ie: seals) as it will lead to a chain of check engine lights.

It would be wise to run the tank as empty as possible before an install like this. 1/8th of a tank MAX.

There are detailed instructions that come with the whole kit, if you would like to see them I can scan and email you a PDF file. There are only a few tiny parts that are a big vague, but common sense should help overcome that.

 

Tried this Magnaflow on my 4cyl '06 for kicks and holy shit it's loud

 

X2

 

What exactly are plastidipping details... complicated?

 

Third fill up, avg 18.9 ... pretty good, considering still alot of joyriding around side roads and hills playing around with manual tran ... beyond normal usage

 

Thanks. Sounds like more work and trouble then I would want to tackle. Thanks for your reply. You've talked me out of it. One less thing to do.

 

Just put that on my truck with a vibrant ultra quiet resonator. And it's not very loud in the cab. It still screams outside though. I think the resonator made it sound deeper too

 

I have the same thing... but not a resonator... I love that muffler!

 

Wonder what it sounds like compared to an Aero Turbine

 

I have sound clips of before and after on my build page (inside cab only)

 

Easy comes in a spray can just wipe your item down with Alchohol and spray a few coats its rubber so it peels right off if u don't like its good for small items

 

Yes

 

Can you post pictures on how you installed them on the rail system? I just installed them and it's sliding back and forth....it takes a bit of a nudge, but when i hit it, it will slide.

Thanks

 

Added a set of mud flaps that I made to the rear. I am working on the fronts right now and will have them put on tomorrow morning.

 

Cut the rear frame off and made a new one

 

See how close I can park the car to the plate bumper. Lol

 

sounds pretty good!

 

nice rugged fails

 

It works.

 

Truth, If i was paid enough for my tires id run rugged for awhile.
