    After 16 mods I am finally done.

    Until:

    Until a good forced induction system comes out. I still have not made up my mind on the OV turbo system or the Magnason super charger tuned by OV. Each has their advantages and disadvantages. I will wait awhile after each comes out so I can read the reviews and finally make a decision. I just wish they would speed up the process and get er done.

    Unless:

    Unless LCE has a decent price on their Air Design spoiler on Black Friday after Thanksgiving. My brother has this same shape on the back of his new F-150. Ford states that there is a 4-6% reduction in drag which means a 1% reduction in gas used. It should only take 25-50 years to pay for itself depending on how much highway driving I do. LOL Actually, I just like it for the looks. There are a few other mods I would consider for the right price but am not in any hurry.

    Anyone else is welcome to share their until or unless stories.

    I'm not paying 10 grand for a supercharger. I already have close to $50,000 invested. I never tow anything so it has more than enough ponies for my purposes. I might consider the OV tune once my drivetrain warranty expires.

    The supercharger isn't going to be 10k, a supercharger for a second gen from Magnuson is about 6k. And Mat gave us a ball park number for his turbo setup to be around 6k as well

    All of my mods had pictures on the "what have you done to your 3rd gen today" but here are a few below that were not lost when my computer crashed awhile back. If you will roll your cursor to the left side of your screen just below my truck type and above the Navy symbol you can see a list of all of my mods.
    All of my mods have already been on other TW threads. Some of my pictures were lost from a computer crash but I will put up what I can. Some of these pictures are poor and some are in the links below. I will not put up the LED or tinted windows pictures since they have been seen 1000's of times already. If you will put your cursor on the left side of the screen below my vehicle description and above the Navy symbol it will pull up all of my mods. The links below will give more pictures.

    I've been debating on a cap, OEM audio+ with the dual subs, or just keep saving for the eventual forced induction :rofl:

    Hell no. For 2 reasons, A) I have a boosted mustang GT and 2) if I didn't have that I'd buy an inexpensive sports car like an older mustang, Corvette, Camaro, etc. I realize not everyone has room for 2 vehicles, but IMO the Tacoma is not a good platform to build something that goes fast. It can be done, but it can be done cheaper with a different platform.

    I don't fly, just maintain. Had a P3 across the ramp from us for 6 months and they were annoying. That is all. :anonymous: TYFYS

    Done with mods for a while until I feel like shelling out $1k for a REAL METAL bumper.
    Boy they look nice.
    This sh*t gets expensive !!! :spending::spending::spending:

    Don't even want to think of the cost of a front one with winch at this point.

    Do you have a side profile pic? I want those wheels and would like to see what they look like.
