I've been planning on boosting mine but unsure...been planning on a TVS in the next year or so.
No, I bought it last June with only 17K miles showing. I traded in my beloved 99 CC Dually (454, 4L80E with 75K miles, see pics). That was hard to do but I have been looking a long time for a nice TBSS. I spotted this SS on the internet at the local Toyota Dealership while searching for one locally. Saw the boost gauge installed in the dash and knew I had to take a closer look. The STS system was a bonus, I don't think they realized what they had or did and it made them nervous. So I was glad to take it off their hands.

It run's great I love it. Just plants you in the seat. Everyone that goes for a ride gives you the OMG smile!

Unless you are on the freeway you must turn off the traction control when you are going to play. If not it will fall on its face and let out a big fart from the pressure relief valve.

It builds boost very quickly and is a riot to drive!
