    285 eh? Those are rookie numbers. We gotta pump those numbers up.

    So you got mud terrains going 80mph, that's part of your problem right there. The toppers the skid plate and steel plate bumper woo that's some SERIOUS duty on that poor little V6.

    Hewitt is working on a 13+ specific bypass system. I’m on their beta test list. They said they will email me when they have them ready for testing.

    Thus the bigger gas tank. I took the same approach on my 80.

    Yessir, exactly the reason for the bigger tank! The LRA tank gets me back to what could be considered a “normal” range per tank.

    Stock city was 19 MPG x 21 g = 399
    Modded city is 12.5 MPG x 33 g = 412

    On the highway at 70 MPG, it gets 15-16 MPG. So on a longer trip, it could possiblly crack 500 on a tank now.

    Oh wow you have a lot going on haha. The speed definitely kills it on these trucks. When I had a 2wd tacoma it seemed to get the best gas mileage at 75/80 mph. Now with my 4x4, the more you go over 55 it just gsts worse and worse.

    I like the sounds of that bypass. Hopefully it actually works.

    12.5 isn’t all that bad considering how much power you are putting down.

    I just took a look at this and I very much appreciate you looking out for me about this issue. I cannot see any differences physically with this setup over my own, however. I can't really justify dropping coin on the valves or manifold assembly (if that is how it is sold) at this point when I will be receiving this bypass kit come Monday.

    Shit bolted onto other shit, and junk.
    Good looking out for sure. I just can’t wait for a FULL DELETE KIT. My OCD will be in such relief like cutting out a huge cancerous tumor from the engine bay. I am going to see if I can help out with the 4.0L donation research time to help.

    Add one to the list of impending problems these trucks have. How annoying right.

    If it's under the hood and doesnt promote horsepower or vital engine necessity it needs to go away.

    This right here. All other items (Egr Valves, AIR injection systems etc. Etc.) need to just go away already. Of course they have already gotten started and continued a recurring trend of EGR valves no longer being a part of the emissions systems because they figured out how to allow camshafts to be able to allow some EGR action into the combustion chambers on their own without the intervention of an external valve.
