ZPI has a full auto upgrade that make that useless auto come alive. Alot of R&D was put into this. As far as I know, no one even has a shift kit for it.

Thumbs up

My first oil change seemed to make the biggest seat of the pants improvement on my auto. I got the TRD exhaust which did a little more and I have the K&N drop in air filter , removed the charcoal air filter and added an additional suck tube to the stock airbox which added a bit more throttle response feel.

Should have saved the money for a true CAI. You would have gotten more performance and better looks. The TRD Exhaust is IMHO the best out there for the stock tC. As you know it provides a deep, mellow tone that is not too loud or harsh. Take away the stock header and bam! Instant noise and rasp. You won't like it. You will have to add a large performance resonator on the mid-pipe to cure the rasp.
