SAE corrected horsepower....

in other words....a more real representation of horsepower with certain accessories hooked up.

Thanks for the info. I only wondered because a manufacturer I worked for actually did reduce the power of one of their v6's this year to boost fuel economy. I was just wondering if Toyota had done the same thing.

....hmm well, given that one easy way to boost fuel economy is to lean out the pig rich fuel mixture on the 05+ tacos....that would make sense to me because you GAIN horsepower from leaning the mixture out, i dont understand what the hell he would have done to lose horsepower for a small gain in mileage.
