    Lol plz sir. U do not know anything about fabricating cost for a custom setup.

    And I know for a damn sure. No one in so cali will make a turbo kit for a 1gr for 2k.

    I beg of you sir, to take some time and look of the cost of material and all other essential parts to build a new turbo kit. How much do you think all of that aluminum, 304 SS, flanges, and other necessities cost? Hmmm????? Add in labor to fab everything up. How many hours of labor were in that. Definitely more than what you are implying.

    Chinese labor costs do not apply here. Nor does half ass work to throw a $2000 "kit" together.

    Foolish response sir.

    Lots.
    I don't get this. Why not just lower a 4x4 so you can actually put the power on the ground instead of just eating tires?

    The prerunner/4x4 can only be lowered so much vs the xrunner.

    And 4x4 is cheating. :p
    I rather have slicks and drive my truck to get a good time.
    Dont wanna flip a switch to grab traction. :)

    Such a sweet setup.. How are the intake temps with the filter sitting in the engine bay like that with no direct cold-air?

    My intake.temps I see at a stop is usally about 10 degree hotter than the outside temp.
    Crusing the intake.temps the same as outside.

    Really good.setup in my opinion.
    And the person that built the turbo kit also owns a tacoma/xrunner.
