I went with the Strano front bar. Made the car much more neutral during AutoX. TRD will be out soon though.

Nope! The little lady is put away until the white stuff is gone. (white stuff being salt)

When it comes out in the spring though it will be a tad be lower, stiffer, and probably have a couple extra horsies to work with... Not as many as you though!

You have a "dyno guy"? I have one with good pricing, we should play around with it for a day in the spring. Pineo's Performance in Waterville.

I've not had a dyno guy in eons, and certainly had no idea troy bought an awd dyno though. It used to be called Taylor Made Performance didnt it?


If they are licensed ECUTek tuners, it would definately be worth the time. Even if not, getting a dyno plot is good to know where you're at.


I know the Dynomight trailer attends a great deal of car shows during the summer as well. I think James still owns that, but im not sure.

I know Chris has been doing it for quite a while, he has an in-floor and a towable dyno. I think taylors used to be affiliated with him but I'm no longer sure. I know chris does tuning himself now, independently of Taylor's.

Good news on the order.
