ECU Tune or box

[Oldmanoz]

I have heard good and bad things about both approaches, I am interested in hearing from people who have actually installed either and whether good or more importantly bad.

What exactly do you want to know?

[Oldmanoz]

Well I am pretty sure i dont want a common rail box so looking at the more expensive boxes or an eCU remap

So want to know experiences with all

Cheers

Common rail and OR plug and play box - avoid like plague. Some can be half decent, but the reality is that a generic tune is dangerous (some are just less dangerous than others).

Expensive piggy-backs or ECU remap, both are good options and typically there is no overly better option. The ECU remap can oddly enough not be as good as a good piggy-back in some cases.

With the Hilux the new thing is dyno tuning with either a piggy-back or remap, depending on your tuners preference. Either option has proven to provide higher gains yet safer tunes than any plug n play module out there.

As usual, you get what you pay for.
