    When I decided on getting a 2-door Tundra, I had no idea that they are so exceptionally rare!!
    Not sure if I'll leave mine stock, or do dual pipes + wheels etc. to make it a 381hp street rod.
    Any suggestions?

    Good shocks, good tires, & good brakes.

    then loud pipes and a trans controller/tuner.

    What does the 'trans controller/tuner' add?

    Like a flappy paddle behind the steering wheel or up/down toggle to make manual mode easier. My titan has a toggle on the shift lever, way useful with traffic, and the factory settings lug & kill power for emissions or whatever, but hold each gear a little longer, appreciate it, then shift and let each gear, deliberately chosen, will never disappoint. When you get good at it, if you trick the intake temp to thinking its cold, you can get a little backlash.
