    Well its a land Cruiser with a diesel so I've got that going for me.
    I'm interested to see how this goes with the snorkel. I am almost always showing IAT at or within 1* of ambient temp which in the summer is great but in the winter when it's 15* my fuel mileage blows! Tons of power, crap mileage!

    That is up to the vehicle more than our dyno. That said, it does not really matter what gear its in as we are interested in the difference between the two runs more than the actual power number.

    If a power number is all you are interested in then let me know how much you want to see and I will make it happen. Cheating the dyno output is as easy as breathing ;)

    correct. needs to be done at high rpm like around 3k so it wont downshift.

    Did we ever get clarification on this working with an AFE stage 2 intake? I also noticed that the products were for up to 2012 Taco's. I have a 14 so would this not be an option for me?

    If you can contact aFe and get the diameter of the tube at the MAF, that would be ideal.

    It has to be measured at the location of the MAF sensor.

    He gave him a week. Thread has been opened 3 weeks ago and firts post by QUIRT 2 weeks ago! :eek:

    I would be happy to see a dyno run but for the moment, i don't have any problem with QUIRT's tactics. He's present on the site and most of the time his comments are on the conservative side. We'll see what happens with the members that installed it and the dyno run when avalaible.

    Removed coal filter, Also installed AFE air filter. Roof rack with custom diamond plate air diverter.
    So does this work or what?
    I am considering purchasing this product if there are positive results from reputable peeps.

    Yes it does work... I am not sure if the patent office would give a provisional on snake oil ;)

    We designed and ran our Eco Block on these factory backed Scion tC's for a full season and finished 2nd and 3rd in the series. Both cars were driven by girls who were racing against guys...

    To bad Crawford Performance doesn't make a turbo kit for Tacoma's. :( That would be legit!

    Or build 1GR's...... Then we could do a Tacoma Gymkhana :cool:
