    Pretty loud. But I have to get it fixed. It has a leak or two I think. I know I have to plug the bung on the car back before the muffler. And the y pipe to header, one of the bolts snapped. But I'll get that fixed too.

    Did the yellow wire mod yesterday and went up Mauna Kea since the road was open today to go see the snow. Got stuck trying to get out from this one area and used trac in 4LO to pull my ass out!! Definitely a believer now lol.

    I want boost :( I noticed something that happened to my taco today. After i was shoveling snow for an hour on the side of the road i jumped back in and started her up and as i pulled out she just bogged even with the pedal all the way down. My ultra guage said there was 95%load and TPS was 100% after creeping a few feet she pulled like nothing was wrong. Mustve had fuel lock or something. I know shes breathing way better with the AFE installed.

    Thanks bro. If your truck is a TRD off-road you don't need to do it you already have A-trac. This yellow wire mod allows non offroads like the TRD sport and base models to use "trac" in 4LO which usually disengages when we try and use it without the yellow wire mod.

    Had little bit. Mostly ice tho. Gotta dig deep into the banks to get some soft snow. I made it up there in 2WD had to come back down in 4LO just so I wouldn't smoke the brakes out on the way down. If the Tourists can make it up there in altimas. 2wd and locker should make it up there with ease. lol I had good fun spinning 2wd purposely kicking up rocks and dust on the way up. :D

    Juns one ah. Can you ask Vernie for me to quote me a TRD pro grill and also a 4runner key fob housing. Imma merge my Tacoma key and remote into the all in one kind. Also did they update the programming for my one click all unlock for the doors? Haha the seat belt charm irritates me when I'm in other tacomas. Thanks for disabling mines.

    me and my friend was just talking about doing a front end conversion on my 2011. we didn't think it was possible at the time but now i see the pictures i wana do it! you think i could just swap parts from a 2012 MGM taco? or would i still have to buy parts to complete the conversion?
