    Take it out of overdrive. Should eliminate TC lockout.

    I love watching TFS videos. One of the few videos where I actually take away knowledge at the end...and one of the few who knows where to place his cameras!

    If your towing it loaded going up mountain passes it's good to take her out overdrive because it keeps trans cooler.

    But yes normally just keep her in overdrive.

    Same for you except you'll be in 4 not 3 and you can also shift your gears by hand. Very helpful feature when towing or off-road

    Is there an oil catch can set up that would work best with the 3rz or does it need to be custom made ?

    I don't have one. I vta. Bit messy and smelly. Most use a universal one. I think there is a thread on them to get mounting ideas. Try to avoid the super cheap ones.

    I wish they were legal in ca.

    Bw s256 turbo with 3 in glass pack dumped pre axle raptor liner bed and top rails and fenderflares and rocker panels. Hunter side steps. Plasti-dipped upper fenders and emblems. satin black spray paint here and there inside and out. 5100's set to 1.75" up front . C channel front bumper. Maxxis bighorn 255/85/16
    Kinda quiet in here. I was gonna post a video of compressed air super charging but there was an annoying beep thru most of it, plus when he said that a good chargingin system for the set up would run about 7 grand it kind of detoured me. Gotta run scuba (grade E i believe if my hazwoper memory serves correctly) air, but it was making crazy power on almost no boost because when the compressed air goes from 33000 psi to 100 psi the temps were like -150°f (this equated to like 8psi of boost at the manifold doibling the stock hp) but too rich for my blood
