    Now that TRD has canned the supercharger for the 4.0l I was wondering if there was any aftermarket options. Google is leading me to think no. Other than forced induction what are some other good mods? Are you guys getting and noticeable improvements from any intake systems or exhaust options? Any tuning? I was thinking about getting the TRD exhaust because I assume it wouldn't be as loud and dumb like I assume a Flowmaster would on these V6's. Thanks!

    Sorry, but you are kind in a bad spot. Being a 2015 you prety much only had the choice of the TRD unit. Now you can obviously do anything but that was easiest. And I thin you missed the boat on TRD superchargers. Don't know how many are left.

    The good news is that URD has enough stuff that you can bolt on and a mad calibrator, where you should be able to get almost out of your truck as the stock TRD supercharger. I would email the guys at URD, they may have a plan for you. Biggest problem is the 09+ crowd we are in have no plug and play ecu options.

    The TRD exhaust has a good tone....but it is on the louder side.

    Don't remember right off the bat on the sizing. I know the actual muffler is smaller than stock but clearly less redtrictive. One plus is not hacking up the exhaust with the TRD.....bolt-and-play.
