If you’re demanding more from the engine, you need to take care of its essentials. We’re talking about pushing to a range of 390-420hp, nearly a 40% increase over stock. It transitions from a commuter to a performance/severe-duty maintenance schedule. However, some of these things need to be...

Looking to see what it sounds like with the aftermarket exhaust. The updated turbo and a turbo inlet will be next for mine. You are going to love it with the intercooler, charge pipes and downpipe! I was pleasantly surprised to see my average MPGs go up as well. The factory downpipe is too...

If anyone has sound clips of this with an aftermarket Downpipe, I’d love to hear it!

Doing a drain and fill of transmission, differentials and transfer case next weekend. For those of you who have owned other Toyotas, how often do you drop the pan for a filter and gasket replacement? Some guys have told me they’ve always done a drain and fill only and are in the 150k-200k...

I filled out the form and looking forward to chipping in! The information you are gathering and the layout you are providing shows a lot of potential.

I’m heavily modified and tuned, and I still get some of that. If I’m not mistaken, we’re feeling “clunky“ in 1 and 2, almost like granny gears. It takes off in third, but you have to give it the throttle unless you are in traffic. First thing in the AM, I am rolling really slow for the first...

Very nice @Stonkin! I believe my next update will be the TK500 and turbo inlet. I’m going to monitor transmission temperature but will probably add the Mishomoto trans cooler, since it appears to fit with the intercooler.

Replace that part with something that will relieve back pressure and reduce heat,

Tint on my first windshield was put between the windshield and the camera, and you couldn’t tell at all. That windshield got cracked and had to be replaced. The same installer cut around the camera with the replacement installation.

Sounds good! I am willing to be a beta tester. I’m a developer but have been out of writing a significant amount of code for a while now. There’s a few fellow gear heads in here, so I feel certain you will find some more folks willing to help.

Very nice! By chance, have you been able to integrate it with the OBDLink? I just bought one and still tinkering with the apps that can link via Bluetooth. I’d like to see temperatures - engine, oil, intake, cold and hot off the intercooler, transmission, etc.

I’m curious what this sounds like with a catted Downpipe. I have the DP on mine, and it’s my understanding aftermarket exhausts with that setup can be obnoxiously loud. Given the MagnaFlow has the NDT, it might sound okay, but I don’t want to be the first to try it out! 😂

I really like how the ceramic coating turned out on mine. You are already reducing heat with an updated Downpipe, but the coating reduces it another 30-40%. I’d imagine an added heat shield is in the same ballpark, if not better.

I’m approaching 20k and need to get this done! Several questions… What’s everyone’s fluid pump recommendation (if ordering by the gallon)? How much oil does the front differential hold? Do you need to replace the plugs or just the washers? Is the transmission fluid replacement procedure for...
