What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

lame

 

How are you liking that sub box? I’ve been seriously considering that one due to price and the fact that I don’t need to remove the rear bins. Any feedback is appreciated!

 

It was more of an old school Audio Control joke. Te Epicenter was one of the pieces that they were famous for back in their heyday. I had one back in 93 along with other pieces of their gear. It was pretty ridiculous on a sub cabinet that I used to run that was 7 cubic feet with 2 15’s… I Back then they were just making sound processing.

 

Installed the TRD air intake system this afternoon. I know there’s not much performance gains to it(if any at all) but I got it for a good deal and it looks great— gotta clean my engine bay someday haha.

 

They make a tune for the 2.7?? You’re right I never drive it. It’s just a tool. The humidity bumped up and drop me down a bit on the tank average, down to 25 on these rolling hills.. it’s pretty sensitive. The bed has been packed full, probably had 800lbs back there on one trip. It seems happier with more weight, maybe something in their programming?

 

nice! Where did you order them from?

 

Same size tire and haven't done any highway driving yet but this isn't bad for my daily 5 mi. drive to work.

 

I'm still wondering how you plan on tapping into the OEM headunit's audio signal. I saw a plug n play harness on Amazon that does just that, but it supposedly is just tapping into one of the speaker channels.

 

Oil change and transfer case oil change this morning.
This Harbor Freight pump made doing to transfer case super easy.



Im going to change the spark plugs tomorrow, I think.

 

I also love the looks of it. I'm surprised this doesn't come stock on the TRD Pro.

 

It doesn't?! The least they could do is have all the TRD parts on the Pro with that price tag..

 

I drilled into my dash and relocated the power/USB port so it was next to where I have my phone. Drilling into my dash is a whole kind of scary. The drill slipped a few times and made some gouges but all in all it went well except I wasn't paying attention to which way the USB port was facing.

 

BRO its all good man, Have yourself an awesome weekend, today is my friday, 3 more days of work next week, then i am off for 2 weeks. i am going to see James Taylor play on July 4th at Tanglewood in Lenox mass, and the rest of the time I am going to be relaxing in Narragansett Rhode island.

 

Does the little box directly above the tube serve any purpose at all ? I ask because i see a lot of people install them, and there is no box. Does the truck just get a little louder and have more horse power ?

 

It's the air intake resonator box. Dampens the noise and provides a space for air to expand a little. Stops something to do with pressure wave harmonics.

 

That’s what I thought too. I bought my TRD intake during one of Toyota’s parts sales. Then I sold the reusable filter to offset the cost a bit more.

 

I took this issue into account when I designed my BDRM and incorporated a dual USB port mount on the right side.

 

New shocks.
