    Quality parts, dyno proven, engine management included, great warranty, CARB approved, budget friendly, you'll get a long list.

    Point being 'interested in' will be based on what the offer is. Not just the term 'a kit'.

    Well, maybe, if your real name is Corky Bell.

    Seriously not trying to stir the pot, but when you have one guy requesting a personalized tune from him on the 22nd of April (https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/tacoma-ecu-tuning-for-4-0l.496449/page-205#post-20440208) and it takes until the 13th of August for the member to get it (https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/tacoma-ecu-tuning-for-4-0l.496449/page-215#post-21311836) do you REALLY think he's got time to design, build, and then develop tuning for this platform? I sure don't. That ship has sailed.

    Hell yeah! I've always wanted to do one in the bed. With the longer air deliver tube, it would be naturally intercooled and you wouldn't have to worry about room under the hood, special exhaust manifolds, and you wouldn't have to tuck it somewhere under the truck.
    I would definitely be interested! And I'll still be interested on Friday!

    I'm sure a lot of people would be interested, but not many would buy it just based on budget. I think there was a lot more interested people in the tune OVTune provided, but demand limited his time with the 2nd Gens. I'm imagining it not being any better if a FI product came along.

    I can see why the interest is just greater in general for the 3.5 in the 3rd Gen.

    But count me down as interested.

    I’d love to man......I don’t have a laptop or more importantly the know how and confidence to do this to my truck. My hope is someone relatively close to me gets it and can tune my shit.

    Truth.

    But I did say 'budget friendly', not 'cheap'. ;)

    Hate to burst your bubble but I'm not sure he's shown that he can deliver a tune for the 4.0 in a reasonable time frame, let alone a turbo kit.

    Agree with this. Depends on the balance of quality and price.
