Westcott Designs Bed Rack 4th Gen Tacoma

SXTH Element Intercooler Upgrade

We're working on a new intercooler upgrade for the 4th gen Tacoma, and it's shaping up to be a solid improvement over the factory unit. The core features more charge air rows for better thermal efficiency, and we're using cast aluminum end tanks for improved strength and flow characteristics. Lower intake air temperatures during high-stress conditions are the main goal here. As most know, once IATs rise past a certain point, the ECU begins pulling timing and boost to protect the engine, which means power drops off. This setup is designed to delay that threshold and keep performance consistent for longer periods. The prototype is already in development. We're currently testing with 3D printed aluminum-magnesium end tanks to validate fitment and flow. Once we have it on the truck, we'll be posting dyno and temperature data so everyone can see the actual performance difference. If you're pushing your Tacoma hard or live somewhere hot, this will be worth watching.

I ran Westcott Designs full height bed rack on my 4th Gen Tacoma briefly some some R&D for Jeff Westcott. Overall the rack worked really well and held the GFC tent nicely.

I like the design that WD went with for the rack. It tied in perfectly to their new roof rack.

I was told they will have various height options along with Molle panels as well.
