    I am a new Tundra owner. My father gave me his 2016 SR5 with only 36000 miles on it and I am looking to see if there are any performance chips that work well with this model?

    There is not. @mZiggy or @JustDSM can probably hook you up with an ECU tune however which would provide some benefits. Anything marketed as a “chip” is a waste of money and will do nothing for you.

    Silver 17, thanks for your feed back. I was also thinking of installing a K&N air flow package. I had really good success with it on my old chevy 2500 HD. Any thoughts?

    To be honest your stock intake is a far better cold air intake than most on the market. You could search a SABM for your stock intake on this site.

    Keep the stock intake. Push the tow/haul button when you need a boost. There, saved you $1000
