Immediately after getting behind the wheel of the Tacoma we realized that the throttle response was much improved. The truck wanted to bolt off the line. Our very technical, highly-calibrated seat-of-the-pants dyno told us that the truck was indeed benefiting from the increase in airflow thanks to the intake and exhaust. Saying the new wheels and tires made a difference in the way the Taco looked would be a huge understatement. Thanks to the Continental tires: more grip, better cornering, and less road noise were all felt by our driver. The ICCE wheels impress us every time we see them and the black/brushed combo is completely sick. Up font, the ANZO USA lights fit and look like OE, only with a hint of custom thanks to the black backing. Out back, the LED third brakelight is ultra bright and simply screwed into place. Whereas we weren't able to alter the suspension, we did make the `Yota look and perform better.

Matt test-fitted the sensor to check that the gasket would seal properly. |  The instructions said that...  The instructions said that our year Tacoma needed to retain the crankcase ventilation, so a 1 3/8-inch hole needed to be drilled in the intake tube. Matt used a Rotozip, but a holesaw would have been just as easy. Then the intake was mounted to the throttle-body and the crankcase vent was pressed on. |  In this photo you can see...  In this photo you can see the heatshield that was installed using factory holes where the original airbox mounted. The two ports in the center of the photo connect to lines that run to the evaporation canister. The filter fits over the end of the intake, and the saddle bracket, which helps keep the intake from vibrating off, was tightened with a hose clamp. Breathe easy little V-6. |
