What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Modding is all about doing your own thing. Do your own thing Bud and enjoy the ride!

 

Think of me as a bottle of vintage wine that's been standing upright, the cork shrunk and where air got in the bottle.

** Not that Cork!!

 

Also, some just enjoy modding little aspects of their vehicles. I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone talk shit about someone without a Gashole. A lot of us like @MESO products but don’t berate those that don’t. Calling someone a “follower” is a bit harsh. I’d be willing to bet I can find things that are a waste of money to me from just about everyone. It’s not your money so who are you to call it a waste? Personally I think the side mirror light blackout is a waste but plenty love it. It’s all relative.

 

Where did you get the trd pro exhaust from?

 

Finally installed the OEM roof rack I got for Christmas!

 

Am I losing my mind or did your post say 107N but now 103N? Was going to ask if you knew the difference between the 2 because I had bookmarked the 103N from past post for getting one in the future.

 

All about doing your own thing!

 

Jerry’s Toyota just north of Baltimore is local enough to me and they have a 20% off all accessories coupon until the end of the month. I had to jump on that at around $620. I picked up the skid plate and cai too because, what the hell.

 

Went back and changed it to the correct part number, you weren't imagining things. I didn't want to leave the wrong part number on the thread.

 

I’m sure to most folks, it’s how much do you want to spend. Easier to buy a bunch of little mods instead of the BIG one. I just don’t worry about what the other guys think anymore. Getting older does that. I like the Cement colored truck so that’s why I bought it.

 

Nice. Plug and play I’m assuming, any major benefits? Is the diameter exhaust bigger

 

poway Toyota seemed to match all the lowest prices I could find

 

yea plug and play, sounds way better, performance eh not sure if there is any difference or not.

 

I agree. ALL of my mods have been a waste of money as NONE of them benefit me in any way. I do them because I like the way they look or function. Your money, your truck. Do what makes you happy. Life is short.

 

Great I’ll check it out. Thanks

 

Same here. It’s pretty liberating once you reach that age or mentality. Plus I think it’s feels like you accomplished something to make your vehicle yours, even if it’s just a little ascetic mod.

 

Thanks. Thought I was going crazy.

 

Yeah I still have it, but want to keep it just in case I decide to change it up sometime.

 

Amen to all of this. My car, my money, my life. I don't judge others on what they chose to do with their lives...or their cars/trucks. Life is too short.

 

My understanding is that it does reduce the back pressure over stock exhaust but I’m not sure how true this is because the y pipe is smaller than the rest of the exhaust so most back pressure will come from there, but I guess that the trd muffler has less back pressure than stock. It was totally pnp. It took me longer to get the tip off of the stock exhaust than it did to do the whole swap. There were only 500 miles on it so the hangers slipped on/off like warm butter.
