Trailhunter/TRD 2024 Land Cruiser 250?!
I had the opportunity to do some R&D with K&N Air Filters. They fit their new intake system + charge pipes for the new 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser 250. To my surprise, they also installed a TRD Exhaust.
One of the biggest complaints of the new generation Land Cruiser 250 "Prado" is the weak engine noise. It is a 4-cylinder and it sure does sound like one. However, it does have a turbo which is much louder now with the increased airflow from the K&N intake system + charge pipes. The turbo spooling and the blowoff valve are enhanced and it sounds glorious. A lot of people love the Trailhunter trims in the Tacoma and new 4Runner because the snorkel also enhances that noise. Then the TRD exhaust adds a deeper and "throatier" sound which makes it now sound like truck. It sounds great a low speeds and almost disappears at high speeds which is perfect.
I have not received any performance numbers from K&N yet but I'm sure it will be included in their release notes for the products.
Shout out to the K&N team for designing more great products!

Wife hates the new Land Cruiser

Our first long roadtrip fully loaded with 2 kiddos under 3. On this trip I interviewed my wife and asked her what she thought about the new Land Cruiser. Her biggest complaint was the room, particularly the rear bench seat where she spent most of road trip wedged between 2 car seats. With our youngest only being 3months old and not fond of car rides yet, she had to sit back there with him to co...

    exciting to see aftermarket support growing for our cars, but I will say the cold engine rattle noises are probably not "fixed" just covered up with intake and exhaust sounds here... i could be wrong though, but i have a 2025 LC and it is a bit embarrassing when i hear that tractor sound when pulling away from a stop sign/light. why is this engine so damn noisy!? Toyota makes near silent 4cylinders in other applications.
