I finally got around to recording a vid of the Tundra. Dad let me drive it to Autozone to buy some bulbs for the Corolla and I took it to a deserted back road and had some fun (he tells me to do it lol).

Traction control was on and I just released the brake and mashed the gas. 0-60 takes about seven and a half seconds that way, but I've managed to trim half a second off of that by turning the nannies off and being careful with the throttle.

Sounds great! It's a single cab too, right? All it needs is a blower and it will be quite the sleeper :)

One thing I noticed .. that shift from first to second wasn't all that smooth. I shifted, and then took a split second to engage. Has it always done that?

Yeah its the 4.7L, regular cab.

Thanks :-D. The intake is what gives it that growl. The headers didn't do anything sound-wise, but that'll change once we get an exhaust. My dad wants me to figure out what setup would be best for his truck power and sound-wise. I think I'll just look for a reputable muffler shop and ask them....

About the 1-2 shift, it sounded like it wasn't smooth but I think that was just the traction control butting in. It shifts pretty smoothly. I wish it would actually shift on command in S mode, but this is a truck after all.
