Welcome to TacomaWorld

 

Sell it and buy a Ridgeline.

 

The only answer

 

Just drive it harder. Hold the gear manually and let the engine breath. Once you get up over 5000 rpm, you really might not think you need more power.

 

Easiest and cheapest real gains will be HPTuners. Send your ecu to JustDSM and have him tune it. Exhaust cam gears get decent gains for the money if you're able to do the install yourself. Beyond that, supercharger is the only other way to gain power in these engines.

 

Cheap mods for 50HP - K&N air filter, E-3 spark plugs, remove muffler, LED headlights, "stubby" radio antenna,
Katzskins, TRD decals, black Plasti-dip wheels, high octane gas, pedal commander, ceramic coat, and a sense of humor.........LOL

 

Hood skewp = 20hp

 

How much power do those cam gears really free up?

Edit: Nevermind, found a thread that states 5% increase

 

I was asking the same question, and browsing the forum recently... but with gas virtually doubling in price I think I'll wait a few years for the supercharger.

 

my taco is plenty fast,

I save fast for my Motorcycle anyways....

 

I guess I’m old now. 236HP is plenty for me.

I even sold my sports car.

 

Supercharger is the only real way
