I believe the OEM box is water tight, whereas this one is not. I also watches a YouTube video for the installation. It could even affect rain or splashing, not necessarily complete soaking.
Looks sharp! I'm waiting for SR5 in Montreal.
How did insurance go? I've called mine already and the quote is 3X my current Subaru and they want me to get an anti-theft TAG system installed.
Our quotes will be vastly different due to many factors even on the same car - age, driving record etc...
They quoted me a little under triple my current Subaru monthly payment for the 2025 4runner SR5 - but they dropped it to double my current Subaru payment with the installation of a third...
As I get closer to picking up my SR5 some questions are coming up for me.
I called my insurance and they quoted me really high, 3X the current rate I have on my Subaru Crosstrek - they told me it's because the 4runner is stolen often at least here in Montreal. They said they won't even insure...
We can probably expect the exact same module coming for the new 4runner. 60HP to the wheels brings us to the mid 300 HP range for the gas only engine, pretty wild for a little tune. Also, because this is a piggyback it can be removed with very little trace if warranty is a concern.
They must have been really popular for the mini's because I keep hearing of others who used them. I just had the little JB+ module on mine, tiny little thing that added like 4-5 psi boost if I remember correctly. The little hatchback was so light that any gain made it feel super fast - what a...
From what I understand, they also increase efficiency as well as power output. The tunes essentially create the best functioning parameters for the engine, whereas they come "detuned" from Toyota due to regulations. I'm no pro, so don't take my word for it, but this is what I understand just by...
Here's a simple module from burger motor sports for the 2024+ Tacoma - I'd assume JB4 piggyback for the new 4runner will be out very shortly. Add's +75 HP with no other mods.

The new 4runner has got my attention due to how tuneable it actually is. Some people have hated on the addition of the turbo, but I'm embracing it.
I've had a simple tuning module on my mini cooper before that transformed the car, and it was a simple piggy back module from burger motor sports...
I'd totally wait until after the impeding global economic collapse as well, but I have a 2 kids, one brand new and we need the size ASAP. I do prefer the smaller screen to the 14 though.
The sport does look great, but it's 5k more for stuff I really dont need. Would rather put the cash towards wheels/tires on the SR5.
I'm quite average actually at 5'8, so don't think it's a height thing.
My dealership called me yesterday and said they had received a TRD sport (in silver), and that it was mine if I wanted, and that I could check it out and test drive it.
I popped over to have a look and did a test drive. Loved it, but the first thing I noticed is that the center console screen...
If a 25% tariff goes into effect, it does not mean a 25% increase is slapped onto the 4runner specifically. Toyota and any brands affected will actually average out the 25% across their entire product line. So even the vehicles made in USA will go up in price to avoid the full tariff being...
Thanks man! This is quite the strip down lol
I'm probably going to keep the third row in. I have a deposit on the SR5 in underground grey.
I've never had a true 4X4 before, so my next battle is figuring out if I'm going to be satisfied with using part time 4X4 on our snowy/ice roads here in...
