Oh.

Yeah, you can hack Honda ECUs. That alone would make modding worthwhile.

Toyota ECUs are tough nuts to crack. They do not make them hacker friendly. I wouldn't even bother because the car is under warranty, it runs just fine and I have other things to do right now besides hack on ECUs.


Okay... I'm gonna piss some folks off here.

Why would you Mod an economy car?

Why not pick an Acura, or a Subaru or some other expensive vehicle? That way all you have to do is make small changes rather than major modifications.

i find: stock = boring

even mild mods are good. makes the car different than others, which i like.

i also find its a slippery slope...like lays potato chips....you cant have just one.
