Tacoma Prerunner Build Overview
Engine & Performance
The crown jewel of this build is the Magnuson MP122 supercharger system specially tuned for the 4.0L Toyota V6. The TVS1900 rotor pack supplies 7 psi of boost through a 2.85″ pulley, resulting in over 400 horsepower output. This transforms the Tacoma into a high-speed desert sled.
Supporting modifications include a Volant cold air intake with conical air filter, Doug Thorley long tube headers and Y-pipe leading to a Black Widow exhaust system with muffler delete. The headers, reduced backpressure, and cold air intake help maximize power delivery from the supercharged engine.
With this combination, throttle response is instantaneous and power delivery is smooth and linear for traversing rough terrain with ease. Reliability is excellent thanks to the TVS rotor pack and Magnuson’s tuning expertise.
Suspension
The suspension on this Tacoma is built specifically for high speed desert running. Up front is a Total Chaos long travel kit with upper control arms providing over 3.5″ of wheel travel. Camburg billet alloy hub assemblies replace the factory hubs.
King 2.5″ x 8″ external reservoir coilover shocks with compression adjusters are tuned for both bump absorption and bottom-out resistance when landing jumps. Out back is a DMZ Fab spring-under long travel suspension system yielding over 20″ of rear wheel travel. This allows the Tacoma to float over brutal whoop sections and desert holes.
Massive 2.5” x 16” King bypass shocks support the rear end and tame harsh bottom outs. The result is a plush yet stable ride quality ready for the toughest terrain.
Exterior
The exterior features a tough prerunner look. Custom fiberglass fenders by Advanced Fiberglass improve clearance for the massive 35″ Toyo Open Country tires mounted on Method Race wheels.
Up front is a custom steel bumper with integrated WARN ZEON Platinum winch, LED flood lights and recovery points. The bumper improves approach angle while providing protection and enabling self-recovery.
Out back, matching fiberglass bed sides give an aggressive, race-inspired appearance. Scanner LED rock lights illuminate the underside at night. Rigid Industries LED pod lights are mounted for supplemental lighting.
A 40″ LED light bar above the cab improves visibility when racing into the darkness. The menacing blacked-out look complements the truck’s performance potential.
