"How much HP have I gained there?"

Best case scenario- Nada. Probable outcome, you'll lose about 10 ponies, alot of torque and 5 mpg. Sorry.

Explain how "Performance parts" are "decrease performance parts"...

What? Too much power for that lil' engine?

The only performance part listed was a header. Without modifications to the intake system (read that as more gas and more air), you WILL lose performance. The rest were cosmetic or maintence items. The "fuel saving module" and gas line magnet are a bad joke.

Dammit! What is wrong? Is the intake too small or the fuel system won't supply enough gas? But they say "dyno proven too"...

"But they say "dyno proven too"...

Manufacturers performance claims would be best written on toilet paper.
If you need 10 extra hp for the illegal drags, pop off the accessory belts.

I'm saying there's LOTS of people out there who just want your bucks for their technobabble do nothing parts. I'm not saying don't experiment. Think FLOW. In, through and out.

Erm... huh? Sooo... basically their lower performance-wise then stated?

PS - What is the average life of an 01's Tranny life if it has not had it's fluids changed in 110k mileS?

Yes and No. Even if you can find proven performance parts, that conglomeration of MAS, MAF, EFI and O2 densors will stymie your efforts. They control how much goes in, when it gets burned and how rich or lean it will be. Remove or hotwire those systems and you'll be illegal in most places.

The wife's '92 has 338k. Bought used so I don't know about fluid change frequency. My '95 Tacoma has 260k. Trannies never been touched. I don't see any problem unless your gonna pull tree stumps or 40 foot yachts.
