    V8 Exhaust Sound and Video Clip Compilation Thread

    Do you by chance have a couple of sound clips of it....?

    Chip for 4Runner

    Yup.... I figure the Programmer, an exhaust, and a CAI, could provide at least some reasonable amount of noticeable extra power, it might be worth it. Any one of them alone is virtually worthless as you suggested in your comment on the whole possible 5 hp gain. That's why If I was going to...

    Chip for 4Runner

    Yup, that's the one. A buck 99 really aint bad for a unit like that. The prevailing problem is my lack of tuning savvy....and...that I'm bone stock other than a nice tint... To me it would seem that the TRD system designed specifically for Toyota would be the "best" bet for a Toyota. R & D...

    Chip for 4Runner

    The 4Runners come out of the factory fairly rich, so its safe to lean 'em out a little for some extra power. You just can't go too far or your exhaust gasses will get too hot and you'll cook the converters or even worse, the motor.... I found a programmer with which you can lean the motor out...

    What exhaust system increases gas mileage and sounds badass?

    Isn't it true that when you open up anexhaust like this to allow for better 'flow', that you also then lose a little back preasure and thus some of the low RPM torque? That's what happened with my 96 V6. It was terrible on bottom. Is there any way to compensate for that other than to keep the...

    What exhaust system increases gas mileage and sounds badass?

    What are the primary differences between the 40 and the 50. 40 louder? Do I want muffler only or Full cat-back?

    V8 Exhaust Sound and Video Clip Compilation Thread

    bigwebb83, I think that your exhaust sounds awesome. It did actually sound pretty deep and throaty to me. I think that the speaker quality you're listening through will make a big difference in how it sounds on your computer too. I happen to have a good speaker system with a sub woofer so I...

    Rattling noise on ceiling

    Hey Martini, Did you ever actually take that headliner down and look? I noticed that when I push up on the right rear corner of the head line at the sun roof hard enough with my thumb, I can get it to stop. Also when I push up on about the same spot on the actual sun roof shade itself when...

    What exhaust system increases gas mileage and sounds badass?

    I have also been thinking of getting an aftmrkt exhaust for my 03 V8. I will be continuing to search but thought I'd take the opportunity to chime in since the topic has been on my mind too. I've been trying to find out which of the two (Flomaster/Magnaflo), will provide the deeper more...

    Want to add ipod cord to rear of my AVH-P3300BT, what cord to I need?

    Honestly...I really have no idea if this could remotely be helpful, but I thought I'd pass on the link since these guys seem to have their Shinola together when it comes to tethering iphones MP3s and such to factory Toyota radios. I bought their Aux 2 to be able to run an iphone/pod cord and a...

    Rattling noise on ceiling

    By all means, share your results. I'm going to add a couple more washers too to see if it helps any...but frankly, since the first two didn't help, I'm left a little skeptical. I don't know if I'd trust myself to actually pull the car apart like that, but I guess theres a first for...

    Glad to be here!

    OK...it's official...I'm once again rollin' Toyota! Got an 03 LTD Gold pkg. Jet black with all the goodies. Looks like an 08 and runs great. Just need to find a way to get rid of the stinkin sunroof rattle without feeding the families of the entire Toyota dealership staff! Its the only thing...

    Chip for 4Runner

    Man...have I got a lot to read! Whole new learning curve. You guys are well over my head, but I get the drift. Sounds like whichever one ends up being the right one for me, it's also going to require an upgrade in exhaust and intake to truly realize the full benefit of using either one...

    Chip for 4Runner

    Yeah, I only caught a glimpse before it disappeared. I may have also read it wrong. Prolly wishful thinking... :-) Couldn't help but remember what a chip did for some of my buddies' domestic trucks. What kills me is that I had put a cat back Magnaflo or Flomaster exhaust (can't remember off...
