At Overland Tailor Tuning (OTT), we're committed to delivering cutting-edge solutions and accurate information for your Toyota tuning needs. During our research and development—along with valuable feedback from the community/customers—we’ve uncovered a critical issue that 4th Gen Tacoma owners interested in fitting the TRD intake to their non-Pro or Trail Hunter:
TRD Pro and Trail Hunter Intake Systems are NOT plug-and-play with standard Tacoma models, including non-Pro and Trail Hunter hybrid models.
While these upgraded intake systems are popular for their performance and rugged design, they cannot be retrofitted to non-TRD Pro, Trail Hunter, or hybrid Tacomas without custom calibration. Here’s why:
If you’ve installed—or plan to install—a TRD Pro or Trail Hunter intake system on your 4th Gen Tacoma, a custom calibration is essential to avoid:
At OTT, we specialize in creating custom calibration solutions for Toyota vehicles. We are excited to announce that not long after the release of the 4th Gen Tacoma tune, we plan to offer MAF calibration services specifically for this swap. These calibrations will ensure seamless compatibility between TRD Pro and Trail Hunter intake systems and standard 4th Gen Tacomas, including non-Pro and hybrid models.
Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to refine and expand our offerings to meet the needs of the 4th Gen Tacoma community. The release is not far away!
TRD Pro and Trail Hunter Intake Systems are NOT plug-and-play with standard Tacoma models, including non-Pro and Trail Hunter hybrid models.
While these upgraded intake systems are popular for their performance and rugged design, they cannot be retrofitted to non-TRD Pro, Trail Hunter, or hybrid Tacomas without custom calibration. Here’s why:
- Physical Differences in Airboxes & MAF Housing: The internal geometry of the airbox and MAF sensor housing in these systems is significantly different from stock Tacoma configurations.
- Calibration Required: These differences disrupt the MAF sensor’s ability to correctly measure airflow, resulting in fueling errors, poor performance, and triggering the dreaded Check Engine Light (CEL).
If you’ve installed—or plan to install—a TRD Pro or Trail Hunter intake system on your 4th Gen Tacoma, a custom calibration is essential to avoid:
- Incorrect air-fuel ratios
- Performance degradation
- Potential long-term engine damage
