Default Before and after mods
Hello everyone. Very seriously considering an xD. I'd really like to hear from anyone who can compare the "before and after" performance, sound, mpg, etc. from adding the TRD sport muffler and performance air filter. Also if there are any other highly recommended performance oriented mods. Gracias in advance, amigos!

there are no real performance mods. the best you get is full exhaust and an intake. best bet for performance you can use everyday is suspension and we have alot of that.

^^ agree no real performance for the xd out there. Probably won't ever be unless you custom do it.

well, a short ram intake will increase throttle repsonse for the better. without any real dyno numbers, there is never gonna be a good answer. suspension wise, a rear sway bar will help turn-in. Altho I tracked xD at highway speeds( pace car speeds) and It handled( I use TRD) really well actually. I could've pushed harder, but my tires gave up after 5 laps...
