Hey Will, I also wanted to let you know if you're looking for a Tacoma or ANY kind of truck hit me up before you make a decision. I get cost on vehicles at any Ray Brandt dealer and close to it at most dealers down here because of my dad being a mechanic for so long he knows a bunch of people. If you want one used I can probably get it for a price you couldn't turn down. Just hit me up when you decide to go car shopping!
Just so you have an idea, I got my lawyers daughter (got her a car for graduation) a absolutely fully loaded Rav4 that came out to like 31k for I think 24k out the door.

when considering Fi.. might wanna consider Utec (700$ish), Return Fuel system (600$++)ish.. fuel injectors... even down to the fact that you'll be tapping into the oil pan (you'll need 5 quarts of oil, and might as well change the filter.) Gauges aren't cheap and you'll also need a wideband. This shIzz adds up is all i'm trying to say man. I got my Turbonetics kit for around 3500 and i did the complete install myself. Do you know how much it costs for a tune for FI? I'm not trying to discourage you.. i'm trying to help you.

There is more to it than just slapping on a turbo kit than the kit itself

It'll probably increase, but maybe a few hundred or may not raise it at all.
I'll run you when I'm ready

edit: Just saw you were going single turbo. Either way, labor isn't cheap.
