    I've recently installed an AFE cool air intake, with the performance scoop on my 2006 TRD Off-road package Taco. (Pictures soon to come)

    After installation would it be advised to buy a speedometer calibrator, or a performance chip?


    I have definitely noticed a increase in MPG as well as HP. First adjustment of many :D

    Does not effective the needle's location. Only how fast it moves. ;)

    Being that you have an '06, there are plenty of options of tuning available to you.

    So In all reality I'm probably ok without the calibration?

    Yeahhhh very excited with the endless amount of possibilities for performance upgrades. Definetly interested in a performance chip/exhaust system to go along with it :D
