I have a question. How robust is the flex joint in the pipe? Is there a concern that this area will separate over time with heat cool cycling? This is a really nice upgrade.

I can hear what you're talking about. This is a different sound than the direct injection. If you are going to try higher octane value just use 93 Top Tier gas such as Exxon, Shell, Chevron for the next few tanks. It may solve this, if indeed a fuel related issue. However, what I heard sounds...

Nope, Honda 0W-20. Tacoma uses Driven 0W-20 and yes, $16 a quart.

I have a 2013 Honda Accord with 227,000 miles on it, and you guessed it, 0w-20 it's whole life. Its still rolling and rolling well. 0W-20 is also for HP. Turbo or not, just change it and have it tested. I do every single time because I live near most of the race teams. My Tacoma's oil has been...

Clearly delusional. Let's put this in safety perspective. Your Taco vs a loaded 34ton dump truck. It's not possible whatsoever for that in spec dump truck to be any hazard, it's not possible, it can't be because it has EVERY component in spec. Unbelievable. This type of thinking is why big...

And exactly why everyone with a Tacoma pull their coverage from them.

For good sake! Will you have a look at the initial post and the truck picture? Does this look like something wrong?

It's all risk. I assume you also agree that all Smart Cars and motorcycle policies should fit your same narrative?

Agreed. Until everyone bands together and pulls their coverage to another provider we allow big insurance to control us. This forum is a great place to band together and make a point. All who have State Farm here, please consider moving. I seen this story and was appalled some time ago. Great post.

Yes, unless you get the Pro flares or an aftermarket set, and that's no guarantee. I still have the Fox lift coming and will likely get a little worse for me, but the truth is, I'll never be that rough on it anyway. I'm also noticing that the Goodyear Wranglers are not holding small rocks, like...

I'm traveling this week and not able to get a picture but I would say 1-inch past the fender.

This is not your preferred wheels but maybe the stance will give you an idea how it will look. Just a small bit of poke here with the Pro wheels on Goodyear Wranglers.

Okay, ill leave it at this. Driven 0w20 is ment for your car, regular John Brown. The difference is the additive package. You are paying for protection from research and data collection. When you see a brand, the brand is the additive package. There is only 2 or 3 base oils.

Goodness? Show us your data to back up your claims. Is this feelings again? I have my data.

There is a lot of folks here relying on feelings and I think decisions. I was in your camp not long ago. 0w-20 is better than you think especially sheering and oxidation value. The key is to switch to a brand that has the best additive package, such as Driven 0W-20. There is too much here to...

Agreed. Top Tier fuel all the time will keep things clean. Exxon, Shell, and Chevron. Look for the Top Tier sticker on the pump. Get the Top Tier app and learn where to get your fuel. It makes a difference in the long run.

Why can't you sample test your oil? Speed uses FedEx. Is international samples not allowed?

You have done a lot of good work here to document the issue. Let's be clear, the only way fuel is getting in the oil crankcase is by the piston rings. This engine is not sealed up. Go to Speed Diagnostics and order a oil analysis kit and start your scientific data collection to prove the issue...

If you think you are burning oil don't mess around with random advise. To know for sure, have your used oil analysis done. Go search the Motor Oil Geek on YouTube and use his company. Speed Diagnostics. Educate yourself if you're not familiar already. State your concerns on the lab form and they...

I am planning to do the same upgrade. Why can't alignment tech pull out camber? I seen a thread on here where there is 3 options of alignment to load in the alignment machine to match your setup. See if you can search this, it may help you. If so please let us know what you had to do to...
