Now I'm getting it ready for a expo trip this summer to Moab/Colorado.
 
Ya its custom tuned for my truck with a supercharger, supra injectors, and walbro fuel pump. Before the unichip it would ping, but with it it doesn't at all and pulls hard.
 
Got the nightmare stereo install all finished up today. I got Memphis Components in the front and Memphis Coaxials in the back powered by a Alpine 4 channel amp through my stock head unit. Dynamated the doors and got all the interior pieces back in. Sounds bad ass. A 1000x times better than the stock speakers. I just need to figure out what settings the amp should be at for the best sound and not to blow the speakers. I am definitely happy with the results. I have a 10" sub I'd like to put in it now for some better lows.

Got my Land Cruiser 8 wrap coils and shocks installed yesterday. Rides SO much better. I think the main reason it was riding harsh is the Old Man Emu shocks I had in it were blown. I can easily compress them with my hand. The truck sits a little taller in the rear now, but it has settled from when I took these pics. It is probably about 1" taller in the back. Which is good because I rubbed in the back wells when flexing hard. Overall I'm really happy! Truck rides a ton smoother, is quieter, and has a bad ass stereo now!

Looks good Chris... dude hw much did u get those LC shocks for? i might try to get u to get a set with ur discount for me bc ive noticed my shocks are riding harsh and after checking last night, i saw that i blew my right OME shock.

Oh and if u need help with the sub install let me know dude...
 
Lifted my Dad's 4Runner over the weekend. Lifted it about 2.5" with Sway Away Racerunner Coilovers in the front, OME 890 coils in the rear, with Land Cruiser shocks. Painted the wheels a graphite/gunmetal gray color and wrapped them in 285/75/16 Nitto Terra Grapplers. Came out really nice I think and makes his runner look bad ass! Here are the pics! And check out the easy way of installing coils!

Thinking doing my supercharged, how the MPG in city with supercharged and how much power u make now. nice 4runner look better with the rear higher now.
