I'm using an old miller cricket. They can be had pretty cheap used. I'd look to spend about 500 for a decent entry level welder.
Pics
After also where the fpr nipple is that connected to the intake lost its vac hose, the write I ised for this was for the 00-02 and the pic that was showing had a tube connected to the intake manifold if I'm not mistaken had a hose already going to it where with mine it just had a cover so I cut a new piece of hose and ran it from the fpr nipple to the unused intake nipple where the write called for a T fitting to run both the fpr hose and the hose I didn't have on my vehicle any idea my solution is solid or am I missing something?
What the hell happened to your hatch?
Here's a link to a photo of mine. Since you have a newer 4Runner you have less vacuum lines. My upper plenum is capped off. Lower plenum runs directly to the Airaid. It already had a port for the vacuum line. You're setup fine. You could always install a fitting in your exhaust tube and run a vacuum line similar to the airaid setup.
Don't forget to reset your EFI.
