I know this is an old post but my friend who has a 08 4runner v8 LTD. has the same problem with excessive sulphur odor, you'd think Toyota would have fixed this by now......does anybody have a TSB for the 08 on this issue? dealer seems to act like they never heard of this problem b4. Been to the dealer 3x and everytime they said they cant replicate it and it should go away.

I had mine done about 2 months ago also. It was covered under warranty. The TSB is "EG015-04: Excessive Sulfur Dioxide Odor". About the coverage, the TSB states: "This repair is covered under the Toyota Specified Major Emission Control Component Warranty. This warranty is in effect for 96 months or 80,000 miles, whichever occurs
first, from the vehicle’s in-service date."
I did not notice any drop in performance, but did notice I got between 1 and 2 MPG better after the mod. The eggs are gone, but I did notice the smell of burning exhaust components for a couple days after the install (all gone now).
PM me if you'd like to see the TSB in PDF format.
