Sting Ray's Build

Truck is looking sweet.

 

Got my DIRTY DEEDS BAMF 8" exhaust installed today. I love it! Haven't installed the resonator yet, and I may not. Actually get less drone then the stock system at highway cruising speed of about 75. Best upgrade so far!


Here's a vid of it vs the stock system.

I'm dying to get a dirty deeds 8" kit. I have been hoping to get a good used one but I just missed out a few weeks ago. If I don't find one by spring I'll pull the trigger on a new one.
Are you selling your bullydog tuner?

 

No not selling my tuner yet. Planning on getting DAP soon though.

 

I was leaning towards the 10" but after watching that, the 8" might be perfect. Deep growl without being obnoxiously loud. Thanks for the comparison .

 

It's definitely not annoyingly loud. I got a little bit of drone last night cruising around last night right around 55 but honestly it wasn't any more then the stock exhaust and only once in a while around that speed and still less then stock system at other speeds. I love it

 

NSV hood bulge lightbar installed. Pretty easy install, little tricky on the wiring due to having the 2018 lights and harness but @inferno_pro_satx helped me out tremendously. I'll post up some output shots later on.

First oil change out of the way. Uninstalled the bullydog tune and tuner for a couple days just to not raise any questions at the dealership. reinstalled the tuner afterwards but this time put the premium tune in with performance throttle and shift points and first tank of 91 octane. There is definitely a noticeable (seat of the pants dyno) difference vs regular 87 and regular bullydog tune. And man this truck is a dog without the tune.....

 

Got some output pics of the NSV light bar last night.

2018 Low beams only



High beams only

Got my center console and huskey mat inserts in the mail today!

 

Installed my floor mat and center console inserts.

 

Got this in the mail today. Should be able to install this weekend.

 

Glass breakage sensor installed and automatic Nannie disable mod done also. Now every time I start the truck the nannies turn off automatically without all of that work of pressing and holding the bottom twice.

Interesting, have any details on this? Doesnt seem to be much on Google by entering the part #.

 

I'm planning on doing a write up on it when I get some time later this week. But it's pretty simple. Ordered it on eBay, install was easy, as the wiring is already there. Set it up with tech stream. Now if I clap my hands inside the truck loudly the alarm goes off. Here's the instructions. http://toyotaparts.sparkstoyota.com/install/PT398-34142inst.pdf

 

Fire extinguisher install under the rear seat. Bought from wal mart, 2 zip ties to the bar that runs underneath on the drivers side rear seat and it works great. Seat lowers without issue and it's secure.

 

Nice build!

 

Thank you.

 

Weekend before last I got a wild hair up my you know what and decided to wash and clay bar the whole truck, rubbing co pound and ultimate polished the hood and front fenders, and used this meguiars ultimate fast finish for the sealant. Rewashed the truck this past Monday while the government was shut down and I couldn't be happier. If you are looking for a good easy to apply polymer sealant try this stuff out man it's pretty amazing. Before and after pics but it's the feel of it that really makes it why it is. I did it all by hand over 2 days.

 

tomorrow I'll be driving from Panama City Beach to Pensacola to pick up something special! Stay tuned.

 

It's like Christmas all over again!

 

Damn!

 

So I did a thing yesterday....I'll record a video today.

 

Nice!!!

 

Got my cats welded into my midpipes and installed. Truck sounds exactly how I wanted! I'll get a video once these winds die down.
