What did you do to your TRX today?

got y'all beat. I pay $60.07/year for my registration
That is insane.

It is weird that some states base the registration fee on the value of the vehicle. If they didn't want just a flat/universal fee, you would think they would base the fee on miles driven per year since more miles means more road wear and tear.
 
Wow had no idea costs so much out there. I thought IL was bad

"In CO, the largest portion of the cost is based on the vehicle's original taxable value and its year of service. The taxable value is a portion of the vehicle's original Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP), which is 85% for passenger cars and 75% for light trucks. The tax rate decreases each year, with the first year having the highest rate and the cost reaching a minimum for 10-year-old or older vehicles"
 
Taxation is theft and some of those numbers are straight highway robbery. Think until they fix every road in America we should all refuse to pay out because we already have and instead of fixing things they pocketed the cash.
 
Let's hear from the guys in AZ. If I remember correctly, I would have paid about $1500 for the first year to register my TRX in AZ based on the purchase price of $106k. The registration fee in Idaho was $53.05.

Swapped to a speedlogix catch can.

J&L worked fine, but I didn't like the fitment with the JMB intake.

I limped my truck 450 miles to HHP for a new build last weekend. With weak piston rings, I had a conservative tune running no boost. In retrospect, I should've pulled the blower belt since that just acted as a parasitic drain. It felt like I had around 350hp, but managed 15.6mpg. I burned through 1.5qts of oil in the 450-mile trip, but I got it done in one tank of gas.
 
Been a week since the install, but I paired some Titan 7’s with Toyo AT III’s and you can really feel the unsprung weight helping the suspension move freely now. I’m sure the lighter combo will assist with the mpg’s but I’ve just been bashing out the new setup so the computer reads worse mileage now. :ROFLMAO:

Montana registration loophole?
I just renewed the license plates on my Montana truck for a little over $500 for the year (the city of Missoula has some bullshit fees they take on). The plus is no state sales tax, and no yearly inspection.

Probably being different as your a resident and I know some states are cracking down on the LLC loophole, but I know many that still use it for saving money on the sales tax and registration fees compared to Cali and others.

I’ve only heard good things about them, so hopefully it’s an easy process with great results for you. Mind sharing what you’re having done?
I dropped my truck off at a local shop yesterday to get a pulley, injectors, and an E85 tune done.

They've been great to work with so far, very responsive and informative. Most shops are booked up for the race season, so I was pretty fortunate to get booked into their schedule just a month after reaching out. Here's what I'm getting done.
  • HHP 426 Bohemith Long Block(Spec'd to handle up to 1500+hp)
    • Thitek Heads
    • Billet Main Caps
    • Callie's Magnum Crank
  • Kong 2650 Supercharger & 130mm Throttle Body
  • Sipple Max Effort 8HP95 Transmission
    • 2600 Stall Torque Converter
    • Billet Input Shaft
    • Billet Converter Mounting Pads
  • 1750cc ID Injectors
  • FI Interchiller & CWA400 Pump
  • JMS Fuel Pump Booster
    • Temporary until Fuel Injection Depot releases their TRX kit.
There are a lot of other small supporting parts. I'm also reusing some performance mods, such as my 2" Kooks LTHs, Fore Fuel Rails, Satera SENSORED Flex Fuel Harness, etc.

What is the total on this build looking? Sounds like you are about to have some extra smiles per miles! What HP range are you shooting for?
