Deck plate/intake mod completed-seems to work
I know there are some that say the deck plate mod doesn't work or for that matter ditching the intake muffler.
Here is what I say, I disagree. It does work. My truck now actually has a powerband.
There is a hundred write ups on how to do it. My advice, dump the intake muffler and put in the deck plate.
One quick note on the deckplate over the elbow mod. Go with the deckplate so you can maintain the snorkel function.
Be forewarned, after completion, upon mashing the gas pedal, you will be greeted with substantial intake noise. Thus the reason the Yota engineers put on the muffler for the grocery getter crowd. My wife comments on it. I tell her...."you want more power or not"?

I think the screen mod is overhill and not really needed. Ultimately, the intake suffers (in stock form) in so many ways. Adding the deck mod and pulling out the intake muffler helps all that.
Now if only someone made a better intake manifold....the 4runner could be perfect.

Then again, some thing the mod all together is overkill.

The problem with the elbow mod is loss of high water usage. I agree that most won't use that feature....but is should be known

I did the mod--and will get my truck dynoed--but my motor is not stock at all--so it would be a mute point. Maybe i will try it with and without the deck plate and see what it does on the dyno.
