My 1895 toyota hilux has got an updated engine being a 3rz out of 2003 2wd hilux. The swap was done about 5 years ago by one of the previous owners. Over the past couple months there has been a power loss on the low end of rpm when accelerating, the car often chugs along very rough under load. Its been getting worse, Ive replaced the fuel filter and fuel pressure regulator thinking that was the cause but nothings changed, cleaned the MAF changed air filter still nothing changed. I'm trying to figure out how to read code from it if thats even possible but i couldn't find any obd 2 port under the dash or near the drivers footwell. I've tried to read the code by connecting two terminals in the diagnosistics port in the engine bay but the check engine light didnt flash at all. If anyone got any ideas about what the problem could be or how to read the code that would be much appreciated. Thanks Sam.

Hello everyone, I did some research already but I still cannot find the answer to my question. I am still a bit green when it comes to this topic so feel free to redirect me to another post. I have a 2003 Toyota Hilux 270VX with a 2.5L D4D 2KD-FTV engine without an intercooler. I was planning to add a bullbar, air snorkel and some bigger tyres on my pickup and wanted to get some more power from the engine (as it will be doing more work). As it is I already feel that it is a bit laggy from standstill and was wondering if adding an intercooler would help. I might consider adding a chip as well. Having said that, should i just get the chip (any product suggestions)? Should i get a top mount or a front mount interooler? I heard that top mount would have less turbo lag which is better for my case but considering that I will mostly be doing city driving with it, i was worried about heat soak after a while. Then again not sure if the snorkel with the front mount will cause even more lag. Should you have any questions please ask Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
