Oh yeah, I forgot about the TRD intake! That would be a logical addition for your build theme. CARB legal, too, so you wouldn't have to swap it back and forth for smog testing.
I have the Perrin inlet tube on mine. It made a slight, but noticeable difference in engine performance and throttle responsiveness. I also liked how it removed the noise generator piping and cleaned up the engine bay, as you mentioned.

There are more than 100 of those covers I am sorry to say, I have one in my TRD 14r, as did every other 14r, not sure how many they made in total, but not many still - good find

A few stuff here and there but I keep forgetting to post on here. Been busy with work/life this quarter but hoping to do more car shenanigans once the weather gets much better!

![]() As requested by @villainous_frx ![]() Parts recently installed: - OEM Aero "Nur Spec" Rear Under Spoiler - TRD Shift Boot (M/T) - Verus Pinch Weld Covers - JDL Catless Unequal Length Header OEM Aero Nur Spec Rear Under Spoiler
Shoutout to @Bach415 for this great OEM piece. Been on my list of parts to get but never justified ordering this piece by itself. Was glad to get it local and from a fellow 86 owner. I was able to get all the OEM hardware needed to securely install it. Really pleased on how it turned out. It's subtle and fits very well with the rear spats. ![]() ![]() TRD Shift Boot (M/T) I was fortunate to finally obtain one of my most sought after parts. I currently have the A/T version and was on the hunt for the M/T version for quite some time. Extremely happy to add this to the build. As you can see in the pic below, the hole is a bit smaller and also had a ring to attach to the A/T shift knob. Once again, the little details are what makes this special for me. I also have the TRD ebrake boot but it is for RHD. Will probably need to find a shop that can do some custom work to make it fit. ![]() ![]() ![]() Wanted to take this crazy pic since I don't believe I've seen anyone else do this ![]() Verus Pinch Weld Covers I forgot which post mentioned these but I was very glad to see them. My pinch welds aren't in the best condition but I would like to preserve them as best as possible. Thought these were a great addition and also makes the undercarriage look a little prettier. ![]() JDL Catless UEL Header (Titanium Coating) Shoutout to @stevelai68 for an amazing deal! Was able to obtain a higher quality header with Titanium coating. Has a deeper tone, closer to the "boxer rumble", which I'm guessing is due to the design. ![]() Some extra pics after a thorough wash and to enjoy the amazing weather here in California ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() P.S. Also hit 86k miles. Wanted to share this neat little milestone. ![]() ![]()

Part recently installed:
- TRD Performance Air Intake Was able to get the intake for a great deal from Toyota due to some holiday sales.
It came with a great installation guide but my only gripe is that the CARB sticker had to be ordered separate from the intake. Just California problems I guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

I like it a lot!
Quality and fitment is unmatched. I'm also glad to remove the sound generator as per Toyota's instructions. I've also noticed a slight difference in induction noise. There have been a few tests done by others on youtube/forums stating there is a small increase of HP but I'm just happy to have this installed.
