    Ha,ha
    Id hope so, its a full TRD race engine.
    Was going to put her on Atlantic ITBs but the seller fcuked me over last minute, so now I have decided to keep her in storage & spend my money on tracktime.

    Hey mate nice car sounds awsome but are you seriuos it only has a stock manifold not quads!
    PHUK it would make so much more power with quads and long tuned exhaust headers!
    SIK!
