Got rid of the intake resonator in the engine bay. Took out the two rivets, removed the resonator, cut some 3/4" Styrofoam to the right diameter to act as an insulating plug, and used aluminum tape inside and outside to seal it. Fully reversable way to do it, so it could go back to stock if needed. Throttle response seems a little better to me, didn't notice any change in sound.

Yeah I am really loving it! Definitely the way to go! I love that the shifter is super solid and very precise with the TRD kit.

Installed this exhaust today. It fills out the diffuser cutouts and it sounds great.
