shouldn't matter in CA, find a smog guy you "trust". If asked, tell them its OEM.

heat is the enemy, hood vents and methanol have been the solution for me, runs strong and cool even in hot summer heats.

I have the stock TRD setup, with 315 tires, and 4.88's, hood vents and methanol injection I can run the grapevine uphill 75 -80 mph all day long even in summer heat. I have found getting the heat out of the engine is the biggest help with the SC.

I tried a smaller pulley, honestly I went back to the stock TRD pulley. I didn't like how it ran with the smaller pulley. Personal preference.

I bought one awhile back and had it on the shelf when they were available from Toyota and got a good deal on it. I have been happy with it. Your truck won't be that much faster but where it really helps is the torque. It basically makes my old 80 drive more like a modern car and negates a lot of...

source for these little bench bleeding fitting please? N

Nice truck!

yeah I figured there was a margin of error, quality meter, I am just wondering what the lifespan of these is supposed to be and if Toyota states after x miles they should be replaced rather than cleaned again, but it sounds like they are basically a forever item until they are not, lol. I am...

yes that's what I mean of course...

Hi all. Working on getting my 80 trail truck up and running after it sitting for about 4 years. I have confirmed I have a bad injector on cylinder 5. Pulled them all and here are my readings in ohms: 5 (bad), 13.5, 13.2, 15.6, 13.1, 13.1 Factory spec is 13.4 - 14.2 so technically all 6 are out...

any chance Tor you have a part number for the specific booster you have tested and knows works with this setup? Is it recommended to buy these new or used? rebuilt? thank you, just put in an order

meh, I mean at that point I would just get a nice RTT. I don't feel like the campteq us worth it for what you get.

Interested for my trail 80. I have been looking to help the brakes out but don't have huge $$$ for big brake kits etc. I removed the ABS system awhile ago and that really helped with braking but I still want better, firmer brakes. So basically this just gives you a booster that does not need...

The paint job usually comes out decent but I have always been dissapointed by the longevity of the paint jobs.

thx for that, just following up on this thread now, right now I am just tossing the idea around, COG makes sense, just trying to see if it's possible. Most likely wouldn't run stuff like the Rubicon with it, so light to moderate wheeling. I may just go the traditional route.
