I hate sponsor videos. Yall be lying bro, there is no way 27mpg on a tacoma or v6 alone. 😅
I have a 22 trd off road and I have never been able to get better than 21.

I just put on one a SR5 V6 4wd Access Cab. After pinning it a few times {and fricking shocked how loud it is...3x louder in person than any vid} I set my cruise at 70mph on highway and use to get 22 mpg on that stretch and it legit was almost 25 when I got home

Our 23 limited 4x4 has a tri fold cover on the bed and wimpy Michelin hwy tires with the V6. We are averaging 23.4 on the readout, city hwy mix. Tires really do make a difference. The bed cover is better than running with the tailgate down in the old days. When I put more agressive tires on my Superduty the mileage drops 1 -1 1/2 mpg. I am thinking about putting the AFE GT Momentum forced air intake on the Taco. I put one on and the Banks Pedal Monster on my Superduty and it was night and day difference. Not sure if I gained any fuel economy because now its too much fun to drive.
Brother, I’m getting like 16 mgp all around on my 2023 Tacoma double cab off road. How do you get 26 mpg?!

I get 19+ and I live at high altitude (8k) and drive passes regularly. Try using the manual shifting, never let the transmission wonder. When getting on the HW I lock it in 3rd then shift up at about 3k rpm. As far as 26, no fking way in hell an intake will do that, I call absolute BS on that. If that's all it took to get those mpg gains toyota would've done it. Intakes on these trucks are completely pointless.
Great video, I'm a big fan of CAI's, and your mpg data was great. I'm averaging 15.5 as of right now. I literally just bought my 23 DC TRD offroad 2 weeks ago, No mods yet.

@manwithnoname734 Since this post, I've added the air intake, exhaust and I still get crap MPG. Couldn't get over 16 mpg. Sold the truck, I wasn't happy with it. Trans. was super all over the place and couldn't deal with it. Lol
What engine does your Taco have? Okay. Finally got to that portion of the video.
'18 TRD Sport, 3" lift and 33's...I'm happy when I see 16mpg. Had to take the air dam off to clear the tires. Probably going to be putting that back on and shaving it down soon. lol *insert crying emoji*

Lol, I have a 2020 TRD Off-road with 33’s and a 3” lift , Cbi Dakar front bumper, with Smitty-Bilt winch, Up-Top roof rack system, and an extra Leaf in my springs, with wrap around Molle panels in the bed , I’m getting between 11.5-12.5 mpg. I would love to see 16 mpg. I’m gonna do the Overland Torque Tune, and inJen intake system with AFE Throttle body spacer, the Repp coil pack and see how it does after that 😢
good vid. I have a 22 sport access cab 6ft bed with 5k miles. I drive pretty easy rural stuff and get 21.6 mpg.
Mine shows 12.1 mpg on a good day with 6” lift and 35”s
How is this different from K&N and S&B? I mean how is this not voiding the warranty and the others are?
@TrucksandWater
Жыл бұрын
Well, to get the full potential of the k&n you have to get a tune on your truck. I am not sure about the s&b. The rough country doesn’t require a tune.
@kcd845
Жыл бұрын
The tune improves the performance of the truck regardless of the CAI brand. Tacomas have a CAI factory. Not many of these after market CAIs actually improve performance. The one I know of The Injen CAI does, it has a secondary intake above the radiator. Also, a tune does not void the warranty.

@@chriswarren9857 I am a licensed tuner. I have tuned numerous Tacomas which are still under warranty including my 2021 Tacoma DCLB OR. I have tuned 2023 Tacomas with the same or less mileage than yours. The dealer doesn’t know and can’t tell you’ve tuned it unless you tell them. Look into a tune, you’ll be shocked at how much better your truck performs, it’s a night and day difference. As to a CAI, definitely get one with 2 intake draws like the Injen, there are others. Hit me up if you have any questions about tuning. I’m on Tacoma World as @SH7mi
Yo bro I just put mine on but I hear a lil pop from the intake when I’m at idle is that normal? It’s when the ac is on.

I m getting 24MPG on my 22 taco, if I use cruise control put to 70mph! But taco speedo has 2mph error compared to GPS speed. So you are only doing actual 68mph. I guess you can get 35mph if you do 65mph behind a semi. Lol. But on an average people drive around 75 to 80mph which drops the gas mileage to 20-21 mpg.
Did the system cause the check engine light to come on at all? Thanks

My check engine light never came on when I installed it. Because it re-uses factory sensors.

It has to do with tire size. The Trd off road comes with bigger tires then the sr5. I also use the cruise control religiously and the adaptive cruise control on the newer Tacoma helps with that also.

It is highly recommend you re-Gear 4.88 or 5.29 depending what use you’ll be giving your pick up as well as how much weight you plan to add in mods. if upsizing Your Tires.. most likely your front Air dam should be removed if sizing past 18 tbh.

It isnt really for "temperature", its just a lot less restrictive and the amount of air it can suck in is more and faster. Hence the better throttle response and mpg

Yes I got one actually lol Clean MAF sensor with MAF sensor cleaner (or whatever) and I heard about disconnecting the battery for 15 minutes then restarting but idk. If the filter was oiled it can gunk up the MAF sensor. Also make sure the fittings are tight. If the engine starts to stutter after flooring it just pull over, turn off vehicle, turn on and go slow; it needs a running start. If all goes to plan you'll be fine, best of luck!
