    Hey guys, new member here

    I've finally found my home after 4 vehicles in 3 years.

    Unfortunately I've swapped my way through several vehicles, much to my financial dismay

    2007 Acura TL -> 2013 Ram 1500 -> 2013 Subaru WRX -> 2014 Toyota Tacoma

    Here's my build so far:

    K&N 77-9037KP Intake
    Flowmaster American Thunder 817614 Dual Exhaust
    De-badging and removal of stickers
    White Plasti-dip front emblem
    Black Plasti-dip rear Tacoma emblem
    Black Plasti-dip wheels

    I just picked up some Spidertrax 1.25" hubcentric spacers, pictures to come once I install

    Future planned upgrades:

    Weld exhaust
    Toytec Bilstein lift kit with adjustable 5100 shocks
    Wheels
    Tires
    20% tint
    Wet Okole TRD seat covers

    Test drive/trade-in day

    2nd round of work

    I'm looking forward to being in the community. Thanks for taking a look! Hope to learn a lot.

    @ArcherTaco what rubber are you running on that?

    How are you liking the Flowmaster set up? I have got the dual exhaust from them as well.

    @TWashburn1212 They are 285/70/17 Toyo MT's. I love them and got them before they raised the price through the roof! Wouldn't buy them for what they go for now though...I like the Flowmaster alot. It's got a decent tone for most of your driving and really doesn't drone too bad on the highway. Only complaint is it has started to rust already around the exhaust tips (mag chloride around here eats everything) but that's my fault for not washing my truck more :oops:
