hey this might be alittle off topic but I just noticed a fuel pressure regulator from TRD? Why don't anyone use it? It's better for boosted cars? No one ever mentioned that before.

I did not notice the short shifter on that site though.

newer toyota are using returnless fuel system that has internal fuel pressure regulator inside the fuel tank. That's means you cannot mod the fuel pressure regualtor unless you mod your fuel system to return kind.

still looks tall cuz of the stupid shift boot, im custmizing the boot also soon. as for diy, all i did was cut the stock shifter at the thread and towards the bottom where it starts curving, then get it welded for 5 bux somwhere. i prefer this over the quickshifter cuz its a nicer shift between gears for me. the quickshifter was still tall and the shifts were stiff, i'd rather have it lower and shift longer and smoother. thats my preference though, if u want low shifter and shirt shift u can cut the trd shifter as well and get that welded, i preferred this way though to save money and again i like the way the stock shifter shifted better.

ill post pics of the improved shift boot as soon as i finish
