Well then! I was about to make my first MagnaFlow purchase. Looks like I'll be going with Borla. I hope the MagnaFlow higher ups keep tabs on this thread and your situation and see that by not making the "punk kid" whole they turned away can cost them quite a bit of business.
Its still not quite like the 1st gen 4runner. Also a lift might be the least of your problems when you put 35's on a first gen combo of 4.10 gears a 22re and 35's is not good.
Well this is my first post in a lont time.
It looks like your hitting what ever mud you are at a fairly high rate of speed. Thats fun for shallow stuff and what now but if you ever get in to deeper water crossings and mud holes remember slow and steady. I think after a few more trips though...
You could try a 3.2 stroker kit and tell me how you like it but for the cost of doing that you woul dbe better off swapping in a 3.4. Like every one else has said you just can't get another 100 hp out of the 3.0. It's a good little motor key word being little. 3.0 is pretty much as small of a V6...
