I guess we should all put sand in our transmissions so that it only lasts 30k miles.

So cleaning MAF's are fun? I guess you are a Ford advocate, so you guys have to tell yourselves constantly fixing your cars is fun.

You sir, are an Idiot, I seem to recall the pikes peak tacoma ran 100 lbs of boost and didn't ever give up the ghost, And I'm putting out 275 horses at the rear tires with my taco! It also runs a high 14 second 1/4 mile... If you want gutless, drive an econoline. And no it isn't charged, or turbo'd..

The Pikes Peak Tacoma used a 2.1L 4 banger, not a 5VZ.

Yeah, they haven't tooled up for the 3.4 yet. I'm still hoping they will, but those guys with an aftermarket intake can get one.

I bet this guys 2rz-fe Taco engine has more boost than the turbo diesels, he claims 60 psi. From the looks of the turbo inlet it has no air filter at all (maybe just a screen hehe).

If you are going to run a Intake With any brand of Filter, you are stupid if you do run a pre-charger that goes over the filter, this keeps and water and dirt out.

haha, yeah he definitely has more boost than the stock diesels of today, but i've also saw quite a few heavily modded diesels, especially cummins, running more than 60 psi of boost! man were those things quick!

Yeah,I want to see this 275whp w/o FI too.

I bet he's squeezin' funny fog then but that doesn't really count since power in a bottle is only temporary and not a constant reliable source..
