    Ding the entire outside of the truck to make it look like a golf ball, that'll reduce drag and air resistance and you'll think you're driving a porsche.

    K&N's air charger system claims to give 7.4hp on the dyno....that seems like a bit much but then again, factory air systems are known to be terribly restrictive...besides, be happy with what you have, i'll give you my 80hp ranger motor and you'll be begging for that yota motor back :D

    None, yet.
    Try pushing down harder on the gas pedal. That always makes my truck go faster.

    Vehicle:
    08 4wd
    4.56 gears, rear trutrac,DT header, 235/85r16 Duratracs, 2nd filter pulled, inter.wipers, Cruise control, Factory alum. whls/winter tires(2nd set), Afe pro Dry-S , Dumbo eared flaps cut down.
    The whole HP thing is a "see for yourself" trip, enjoy it.
    So far I did the 2nd filter pull , added synthetics, pulled that elbow in the fender. Mileage seems to have gone up about 1-1.5 mpg. Power? hey you(we) bought the 4 banger, don't realisticaly think we will go neck to neck on the same mods as a 4.0 . What I did notice is the engine wont stall if I let the clutch out too fast, like it did before, that could still be passd off as "butt dyno" still. I just got my Afe pro dry-s today, if it makes no difference, its still only $35 and its cleanable.

    Imo the only real h.p. gainer is the headers, thats in the "normal" mod price range,we all know about super chargers,n/a for 08 4 cyl $3k or so.
