Box images...

In case anyone was interested in my old box:

Keep in mind this is built for a Supra AFM. Also, the LED strip, switch and cone filter will stay with the box.

Any Before and After Dynamometer to Test Battery-Intake Swap?

Someday, I'll swap intake and battery on my first-gen 22RE, too.

If anyone in So Cal has resources to do a before and after dynamometer measurements to really see benefits of CAI/Shortening intake path, I'd gladly volunteer my vehicle as lab rat....

Regards,
RAD

A butt dyno yes. Noticeable gains yes, I would say so. Even a mpg. Just remember, there is not ONE mod but a series of mods to make a difference with a 22re

Thank you, Logan. The batt-intake swap makes the most sense, and would cost the least among the many possible mods, I think. I hope yours is working well. I plan to do mine a la 4Crawler- use stock airbox.

Ray

Sorry, haven't had a chance, yet. Too many things going on - mostly putting the truck to good use as a workhorse as is

Update 24July.

I ended up removing that 2/0 cable and ran a 4 gauge starter cable from the power stud under the motor(across the front of the oil pan) and to the battery. I had to replace the alternator as well as it was charging at over 20 volts!!! While I was in there I added two 3.0L fusible links because my original 4cyl 2.0L one was completely shot.
