So as of right now, other than buying a piggyback or standalone ecu, the only tuning solution that we have for our cars' is the bench flash tune that Orange Virus Tuning offers which is what I currently have on my car. All I got to say it was really well worth it. Once I got back my ecu, I felt a huge difference in throttle response and pick up. A couple of weeks after receiving my ecu, I got my car dynoed and put down 176 Hp and 169 lbft of Torque to the wheels ( Graph shown below). Now that's not bad considering that the car stock from the factory only makes 178 Hp and 170 lbft of Torque at the crank. Now I had forgot to tell the tuner that I had after market parts on my car, so the tune I currently have now isn't tuned to everything I have on my car, which means my car can make more power. So as of now I'm currently waiting to get it retuned but plan on doing it after I get my catback exhaust. Now Im sorry that I can't provide bone stock dyno or a dyno before the tune but bone stock would probably have to be around 140 Hp to the wheels. So with just parts that I have on and a tune that isn't tuned for them, I made around 25-35 Hp.
Now the reason for this post Is because I'm trying to gain some tuning support for our cars and OvTuning developed a handheld tuning device for the tc2 which has the same motor. The handheld tuning device tunes to parts and even to run different types of fuel like 91,93, E85 and more. The only difference is the protocol accessing the ecu over the obd port which means they would be able to do the V6 as well. Now they said they might develop one for our cars if we get more people who are interested. So this post is to see who would be interested in something like this? I'll post info and links below on what they can do.
Now I don't work for Orange Virus Tuning or am i getting paid to do this. I just want more tuning support as I plan on doing more with my car, and this would be of big help to me and anyone else who might be interested in making more power out of their car. Also the link to more information on the handheld tuning device is below. I also want you guys to keep in mind that they're the only one that has cracked the Toyota ecu.
