Looks really solid man This is almost completely untrue. Your braking system doesn't care how much taller your vehicle rides, so long as it isn't tugging on brake lines at full droop. (That doesn't really happen on these.) The only thing it can affect at higher lift heights is CV's, but that...

Yeah you're spot on there. The EPA is pretty damn lame.

I don't think that was much of a consideration at all, to be honest. Toyota has been pretty clear from the beginning that the hybrid system isn't an economy-based hybrid, and that's reflected in the way it performs. If Toyota intended this to be used exclusively for mileage improvements, we...

I would be surprised if the restriction was anywhere other than the throttle body inlet. I'll probably order one this week. I'm happy to hear you noticed an immediate improvement. I'm hopeful this makes a pretty noticeable bump in power. You can never have enough.

Man this is an absolute BUMMER to read because I was just considering ordering a set for my 4Runner. That aside, how do you like the shock performance?

Solid setup tbh. You'll have to toss the turbo inlet and get a TEQSPORT inlet, it won't work with the larger T550X compressor housing. I'm also not sure if OTT supports custom tuning, probably worth checking with them. Otherwise, you're solid! Edited to add: (we both responded at the same time)...

Nope. The isodynamic seats are not available on 4Runner and are an option on the Tacoma.

At 2-3" past the flare, you're going to find yourself cutting to get those to not contact at full lock since you don't want to lift it.

It's done, and the numbers are in...we made a respectable 411whp and 435wtq! 💪 When this thing was stock, it made 271whp and 342wtq on the same dyno, which means that with this setup we've picked up 140whp and 93wtq, which is HUGE!! Our original baseline was completed when ambient air temps...

Nice! That looks really great.

It's good stuff! We need to try and get you one of these to try :cool:(y)

Yep! They've been on the platform for a little while. Pretty cool. It'll get a full tune on the dyno over at Z1 / TEQSPORT.

Generally speaking, wheels/tires/etc cause accelerated wear of the drivetrain. It's not really such an extreme, but it's still worth noting. It's also be more expensive on tires that on the road, will perform worse what you would put on the limited. Also worth knowing the Fox shocks (along with...

Well, this is exciting. The 4Runner went into the shop last week to install the TEQSPORT T550X turbo. This is a totally new design drop-in ball-bearing turbo for the T24, not an upgraded CHRA in a stock housing. Modifications up to this point are the following; SXTH Element Intercooler AWE 0FG...

Look, I love TRD Pro's but I wouldn't shop for a vehicle based on appearance alone. I look at it this way: If 95% of your driving is done on highways and 5% is done on light trails, buy the vehicle that works better for you 95% of the time, especially if it still works well in that 5%. Based...

Looks good man!

Man I can't read all this. All I'm gonna say is that the X5 is a completely different SUV compared to the X5, so it's strange to cross-shop a purpose-built body-on-frame off-roader with a luxury unibody SUV. Coming from someone who owned an X3M Comp, and C7 Z06, and Xterra (Offroady as hell)...

Yes. Pushing the tire outside of the fender will cause a noticeable drop in mileage. Basically, it creates aerodynamic drag. Where the wheel would normally be inside the fender well, it is now positioned outside the fender and is interrupting air traveling across the side of the car. As far as...

Here's some clarity; "Until I see some hard evidence in the form of official documentation from Toyota stating that the stock engine as is will deliver more HP when fueled with Mid grade or Premium grade gasolines I will cast doubt on Dyno results & claims" Toyota isn't going to go out and...

I'm not even sure how this is a debate. Octane has been 100% proven to affect power output, and it has for decades. The octane rating is directly linked to the fuels ability to withstand pre-ignition. Completely disregard the "chemistry" and "energy" because that doesn't matter. The entire...
