My new Truck... thats really old

Im a proud new owner of this 86 pickup 4X, 22re 5speed. She's got 200k, minimal rust.
Pretty well taken care of. I previously had a 90 4runner 3L. I think my new pickup actually has more pwr, but still not enough. Any sujestions? Just something cheap and easy..

make sure you check the blinker fluid also!

all joking aside im not too sure on the 22re's i have the 3.4 but with all im sure an exhaust would help with power and sound as well as the possibility of an intake.

good luck and good find!

Welcome. Kids around these parts just put an Auto Zone muffler on there and they think they are haulin!!!! On a serious note, tune up, header, and prepare to spend time in the slow lane! Mine is not fast, but we can go anywhere.

Well, cheap and easy doesnt typically yield any significant results. Depends on what "cheap" means to you. Best place to start is to tune everything up and do some maintenance items like a fuel filter.
Then worry about pissing up money on cheap mods that might get you 0.5hp and an extra 220db.
