    4.56 vs 4.88

    I think you are missing the fact that he is or will be supercharged. Torque won't be an issue for him even with much smaller gears.

    4.56 vs 4.88

    There are definitely downsides. It gets loud, driving at 80 MPH for extended periods, will start to wear on you. Gas mileage sucks, I mean as low as 8 MPG with the roof top tent, sucks. Having to stop for gas every 200 to 250 miles sucks. I literally take out my URD exhaust and swap back to...

    4.56 vs 4.88

    I've had my Magnuson blower and 4.88 gears for years now running on 35's. I would say that they (4.88s) aren't necessary for this combo, but I also don't mind having the extra torque. Fully loaded down with passengers and gear, I still don't worry about any climb. I took my whole family on a...

    Life after 3 month Sirius XM trial expires?

    I'd rather pay $6 a month instead of downloading music and updating it constantly. That's just me though, to each their own.

    Life after 3 month Sirius XM trial expires?

    I still have my subscription even after 7 years. Nothing beats it when you're way out in the middle of nowhere with no cell signal. Streaming is fine, as long as you have signal. So if you're a mall crawler, then you're all set. If you go off the beaten path a lot, like I do, Sirius is pretty...

    5th Gen Viper "Smartstart" Pro Remote-less Alarm? Any users?

    I don't know if it is the only one, but it is one I know from experience does not cut off the engine when you open the door.

    5th Gen Viper "Smartstart" Pro Remote-less Alarm? Any users?

    I've had this system for just over a year. Mine came with 2 remotes, or you can use the app from your phone. Honestly, I use the remote it came with more than the app. Although, you totally can just use the app. I love it, I got a bunch of add-ons like the glass break sensor, shock sensor, extra...

    Mods that should be done at the same time as magnuson supercharger install?

    Unfortunately, I have not found a smaller pulley for this setup. I can tell you that when I installed the aFe Momentum intake and URD exhaust, I saw about a pound to a pound and a half more boost (between 7 and 7.5 PSI total). I have since removed both those mods because I recently took the...

    Mods that should be done at the same time as magnuson supercharger install?

    If you have larger tires, trail armor, steel bumpers, etc. it will feel closer to stock again. You definitely won't shit yourself. I wish it was like that. As for parts, I don't do anything different when I got mine and I've had it sense it was available with zero problems. As for more boost...

    4Runner hot wheels finally coming!!!

    I bought them off eBay. They were $20+shipping. I know that is way more than they are worth, but I ordered the same day I saw this thread (first I had heard of them) and I got them in 3 days. So if you want them and spending a few bucks is worth it to you, just pick them up eBay. If not, I am...

    4Runner hot wheels finally coming!!!

    I just bought 2 from eBay from two different sellers. I plan to open 1 and paint it to match my 4Runner and keep the second one in the box.

    Anyone know the specs of the Gobi Cross Bars?

    I don't know the size either, but if it helps, Gobi makes something very similar for their racks (so you don't have to know the size): U-Brackets (Set of 4) | GOBI Racks (Denver, Colorado)
