    I’m thinking about putting a turbo on my Tacoma. Mostly for a little power. I’m wondering if I need to do anything to the transmission or if anyone knows how much it can handle.

    For the most part I’m keeping majority of the truck stock. I do want to put a brush guard on it eventually as well.

    The transmission will be fine but you’ll need a stiffer pressure plate for your clutch. Im running a stiffer pressure plate with a stock disc.

    I tried a bunch of aftermarket discs but the springs in them caused harmonic vibrations at certain rpms, so I went back to a stock disc.
