Love seeing DIY projects like this. Nothing better than a bespoke system to your own specific needs. Is painting the rest of the wood the last step in the project?
I think @The_Dark_Knight_Forever is referring to the site’s app here -

But why, you ask? Toyota limits the torque...
VF Tuner tuned i-Force Max Land Cruiser (same engine as Hybrid 4Runner) dyno results:
"Nearly 90 ft-lbs difference at 3200 RPM and huge torque and horsepower gains everywhere!" (tuned by Toxic Performance using VF Tuner)
Definitely a mini Sequoia look! Creative using OEM parts from Sequoia TRD Pro together with some aftermarket parts to get enough clearance for those monster 37s.

? Platform & Shared DNA
Both the 4Runner and Tacoma Trailhunters share a core platform and off-road DNA—especially in their use of the i-Force Max hybrid drivetrain (323 hp, 465 lb-ft of torque) and extensive off-road tech like:
