Default Make my 2007 Toyota 4Runner Sport faster and sound better?

I've got a 2007 Toyota 4Runner Sport Edition 2WD 4.7L V8 with a Borla air intake and dual exhaust. The car sounds pretty good right now, but, without spending much money, I want it to sound more like a powerful car. A friend of mine told me to put 2 small holes in the exhaust system, but I don't know where to put them (or even if they will work).































I also want to make it accelerate much quicker than it does. I don't want to change the rear end, so what can I do? (Remember, I am on a very, very tight budget).















Is there a performance chip that would make it do what I want? If so, where can I find one?

Tight budget and more performance don't really belong together. Drilling holes in the exhaust will create a turbulence in the exhaust flow and actually downgrade the performance of your engine.















You can use a portable Superchips tuner on it, but you wont really feel a difference in power for the amount of money you would dump.































Acceleration usually coincides with power to weight ratios, so you need to shave weight and add power.































My recommendation, get a header back exhaust with an x-pipe mid fitting, make sure your intake is drawing in cold ram air, and not hot under the hood air, get the truck dyno-ed and the ecu reflashed, and get rid of any access weight.































If you have the money however, you could get much much more!
