Adding HP with a CAI?

Need some opinions, I already have flowmaster dual exhaust on my 06 Tacoma, and want to install K&N air intake 63 series, and want to also install doug Thorley headers but not sure which type to get, short or long tube? Also want to install a Bully Dog programmer. Doing these three with the exhaust how much horsepower do you thing I will gain?

Also will this change the overall sound of my truck for the better?

 

is there a cheaper way besides a supercharger to get closer to 300 hp? that's my goal hp lol

 

damn okay, but do you believe doing just the air intake, and new headers will add some hp, if not just make it sound better?

 

No. CAI really doesn't do much of anything for performance (unless you have a S/C) and... your truck "essentially" has CAI. Replacement air filter will do nothing for performance. Exhaust will just make noise and as far as programmers go... unless something new has come out recently that I'm not aware of they don't do anything. S/C is about your only option for true performance.

 

No... just sound better

 

It'll sound different but better is pretty subjective.

 

Very true. I personally wan't my truck to be quiet. But that is "my" preference.

 

This is the most truthful comment ever on TW.

 

Says right on the box, up to 38hp gain. It must be true!

 

yep, and K&N made some outrageous claims to and ended up with class action suit against them. I think the only thing that is going to change is your bank account and will not be an improvement.

 

Cheaper? No.

Other ideas:

Convert your truck to an X runner and add SC

V8 swap.

 

The fact that they actually say that right on the box, is reason number 1 to never buy anything from them.

THEY ARE FLAT OUT LYING!!

 

I have Said it before and again go to urdusa.Tacoma performance and you take it from there.

 

If you want power.. Change your gears!!!

 

FTFY

Turbo FTW

 

Delicious Tuning has indicated that they will be providing tuning for Tacomas in 2016. I have sent them a note regarding this, they only indicated that they will be releasing it soon.

Delicious has provided tuning for Subaru, Nissan, Ford, Mazda's, etc. for a few years and provides the CARB tune that Edelbrock sends with their roots blower for the Subaru BRZ. They have also done work for Ken Block, various Pikes Peak, Rally America and Rally Cross teams. They also have developed flexfuel kits for a few vehicles to allow them to run E85.

I'm interesting in seeing what they end up doing. I probably won't end up getting anything like this, but just nice to see someone other than URD and Bullydog working on tuning Tacomas.

 

OP, look through the links in my Sig. (I need a record player emoticon for the amount of times I say that. Lol. )
