Nice video once again. Favorite part was at ~10:45 when you're in the tunnel and the exposure adjusted to the darkness - super bright end of the tunnel opening into the lake/mountains.

Have you considered plastidipping your door handles for your white/black theme btw? Saw this picture FRS over at reddit.com/r/ft86 and thought of your car:

That really does look good, thanks. However I have the keyless system which has the sensor on the door handles, so I dont want to mess around with it :-)

New Box arrived today

Not yet happy with it. I miss the sound tube, as the TRD Intake does not really make any intake sound (at least its more quiet than the stock with the red TRD Soundchanger). But well, maybe its just time to get a Cat-Back exhaust for the car ;-)

Performance wise I cant say anything yet, havent driven the car around much and the ECU is still learing.

I have done now some km's with the TRD CAI, and it really improves the throttle response quiet a bit.
However, still not happy with the sound of the intake, so I've ordered a Cat-Back Exhaust system today, which I can pick up in some hours
Hope this fixes the "sound" issue I'm currently facing :-)
