    Did I mention I'm on a budget a supercharger is a little out of the picture right now if I did exhaust and a cai what would you recommend

    Yes sir
    Haha sorry, you won't get much of a horsepower gain with an exhaust and CAI. Like some guys are saying they're getting 2-4 more HP, others say they didn't get anything.

    If you want to give it a go or just for a bit of a throatier sound, the TRD CAI and exhaust is solid. K&N CAI is solid too. I'd choose between those but like I said, maybe 2 more HP from the both of those.

    The only way to get a real HP gain is with a supercharger. But, like you said about your budget, a supercharger is $4000-$5000....

    Toyota TRD cai and Toyota TRD exhaust.Very minimum noticeability in horsepower gains without the supercharger that i can't afford either at this time.
