So I'm back. Got myself another xrunner and this time I'm gonna do it right. I have one of the nicest 2006 Xrunners out there, Yardies old truck, as a great base to start with. This truck will likely remain a garage queen, but not to the extent yardie had it. lol. She will be driven.
So, I've been out of the game for about 9 years now. So I'm sure a lot has changed. Currently the truck has these mods. (and maybe more just not sure yet, I pick up the truck next week)
TRD S/C
TRD CAI
JBA STH
URD Catback
TRD SS
LS projectors in 09 headlights
LS HID fogs
Sittin Sic coils
SOS blocks
QA1's
Boost/AFR gauge with single pillar pod
TRD seat covers
C2C shift knob
Back in the day the X1 was the tuner of choice. Is that still a thing? Luckily, if it's still a good option I live just outside of New Braunfels where the X1 was manufactured, errr, I think...
What are the pulleys everyone is using these days?
Any other exhaust or intake options I should look into?
Long story short, I'm hoping to get around the 400hp mark. maybe a little more. But nothing crazy that's gonna grenade the engine. I'm eventually planning on T56 swap, but with only 36k on this truck I'll probably wait until the stock trans gives up. Any and all suggestions are welcome, not just on the engine upgrades! Like I said, I'm out of the loop....
anywho, I see lots of new names and some of the oldschool guys here still. I'm looking forward to getting back into the xrunner scene and meeting some new folks on the sub!
Thanks!
