I pulled ours out a while back and now after several months decided to put it back in. For all of the reasons stated in my thread.

I tried to look for the exact fit by searching under Make and Model and put in Lexus GX470 but it says "This product does not fit your 2004 Lexus GX470"
Did you guys put it under 4Runner? If so, it would be under the V8 engine under any trim right?

Thanks for the heads up.
I found a guy on youtube who installed one of these on the GX. Sounds quite nice!

You can use the cold air intakes that fit the 4runner v8 of the same years. Pretty much a plug and play type of set up and K&n and Volant both claim about 13-17 in HP gains. I've got the Volant and my GX470 sounds like a vette or a viper very throaty.

A friend of mine also did the same thing, installed one of them one GX. Not Bad. I think. Actually really good.
