    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Very nice 5lug. Super clean looking. I'll be honest with ya. I had a 3RZ with the supercharger and headers, bigger injectors.... Etc

    It was enough to beat a few v6 trucks in a race but was it worth the $3200 or so I paid for everything used.... Nah. The headers are nice for a sound upgrade and to replace broken parts, but I doubt they do much to performance on a torquy slow turning truck motor.

    you could always fabricate a small block V8 engine under the hood, like a chevy 283 or a ford 289. 8 inch ford rear end. But it would cost you a pretty penny. Search for the Tacoma with the Vet engine , bad ass. Another user has a Supra motor in his, awesome. Other than these options, not really.
