How can I increase my trucks power?
I got a 2WD 1988 toyota pickup truck with a 22R-E engine.
Nothing has been modified in it or anything so.
I was wondering what can I do to increase the horsepower of my truck? Ive been looking into air intakes and stuff but I have no idea what they do or what I should buy.
Some advice would be greatly appreciated.

Air intakes are a big waste of money. Unless you have a high HP engine where every tiny HP counts, dont waste your money.
First step, get a better exhaust. LC Engineering makes great headers and exhaust systems.
Then get a mild cam, that will help open it up a bit.
Those two will get you the most bang for your buck, without getting into major engine mods or rebuilds.

A motor is just an air pump. Get air in and out quicker with an air intake and a better exhaust. Then, when you are ready for a cam, get some valve work done at the same time. A higher output aftermarket ignition system will help.
