Engine tuning
I recently enquired with a reputable engine management tuning company as to see if there is anything they can do. They have a software which is dyno tested before and afterwards for proof on the yaris and is very moderate in terms of power gains.
I have heard our yaris ecu's don't like to be tuned and can cause issues. Has anyone else had a problem with any tuning of there systems? Sent from my SM-N910F using Tapatalk |

The general consensus seems to be that using a piggyback or replacing the ECU is the way to go.

Even then piggybacks have been reported to essentially lose their tune as the stock ecu sometimes "relearns" itself. This has been well documented on corolla forums. The first gen Yaris' (echo's) don't have an afr sensor and piggybacks work fine on those which makes going turbo much easier from what I have read and discussed with people
If your country allows standalone ecu's and it keeps it road legal then go with a standalone ecu that your local and trusted tuner if familiar with. This will make it much easier to tune the engine the way you want
