| It's due to the exhaust manifold being made of I believe aluminum allowing excessive noise when accelerating.

Unfortunately, this is normal for this generation of 4runner.

are you sure it's not the gasoline? Could it just be lo-octane ping?

I've always run my V6 Limited with Premium fuel and it still makes that noise. I'll eventually change the exhaust manifolds with aftermarket headers with a better exhaust flow design (the stock design is inefficient). If anyone knows about any mod-chip that will increase the power on the V6 motor, please post a message. thanx
