What CSL? I see a lot of old school cars and trucks in that shop.
The bumper looks OK. The tube looks odd, I would probably cut it off. The wheels and the paint look great!

All the camber bolts, plates and lower control arm bushings are on as well as the inner and outer tie rods and ball joints. Got some more of the engine put together and hit another snag. It would appear the 2.7L Engine had the fuel filter under the intake, not on the frame, the 3.4 filter is located on the frame and the fuel lines are different, obviously. I was going to just get some earl fittings and run some braided stainless but bit the bullet and ordered new lines from Toyota, they are supposed to be in on Monday. I replaced the 4 cyl CC unit with one from a v6, changed the power steering pump sensor to the early vacuum switch, installed the airbox, maf, rad hoses, shroud, etc.

You forgot a major component in your 3.4 swap. Is that a rc?
U forgot the supercharger
Cool. I thought about changing my supercharger over to turbo, but their are some repairs and maintenance I need to do rather than modify anymore. URD last I checked is down to their last port fueler for the 5vz if your interested.
UnderDog Racing. Huge aftermarket support for the superchargers from Toyota.

This is if u want to run a piggyback with 6 additional injectors that kick in during boost. May be easier to just go stand alone though at that pricepoint.
Most people are running single turbos on the 5vz. A 3vzfe crankshaft is a direct drop in a 5vz and is a forged crank. Usually can find for 200 bucks used. Not to be confused with a 3vze motor which has a cast crank but would also drop in. Cx racing has a cheap turbo kit with manifolds for the 5vz tacomas. Some just use the cx turbo manifolds. Treadstone performance makes a kit for the 5vz to weld your own manifold.

Thanks. I will most likely run a haltech or motec standalone on the truck and make my own manifolds and turbo kit. I do not mind secondary injectors but it is much easier for me to tune with big primaries only and run sequential so I can tune by cylinder. On my turbo setups I run a egt probe in each cylinder and run an aircraft controller to toggle through each cylinder and see where it is at. You would be amazed the difference in airflow to each cylinder with even a well designed intake manifold
Cool. Well like I said treadstone makes cylinder head exhaust manifold flanges for the 5vz which may cut down fab work for u.

This reads like a awesome build, but the pics are gone
