But who knows...

OK we should make a collect to get AlainMikli to the dyno... I'll pay 5 bucks...

yea but do all new toyotas have learning ECUs? maybe they are different in japan then the us?

maybe they target more sporty cars rather then the economy yaris

but with no dyno to back it up, they we will never know

I would like to see a dyno with the chip pluged in right away, then maybe after 1000 miles with it being untouched to see if the ECU voided it out

Yaris is at the bottom of the Toyota line up.... I don't think our ECU are any more intelligent than a Lexus ECU.

All modern cars have learning ECU's. They've had them for the last 20 years! Yeah the late model Yaris has a picky ECU but all late year Toyotas are the same! Is no rocket science. The ECU uses several inputs to adjust itself. Those inputs are well know. All the pre set values have defined ranges. When people say their ECU learns and goes over their Piggy back is because they are throwing fake values that are beyond the pre set ranges.

Good tuners know this.... TOM's knows this.

This controller most work in some way... the question is how much gains can be obtained on a Modded (I/H/E) Yaris and if those gains are worth the price tag on this thingy.


And yeah, it would be great to see some independent dyno figures!!


This is pretty new. I'm sure we will see some more info from the guys in ASIA in the upcoming months.

Meanwhile we can give time to Garm to start sourcing the gadgets...


PD: Toyota doesn't have any "sporty" cars now a days.

If only these were availble in the US so that members of yarisworld could purchase them. I think there would be a demand. Such as if a vender stock them and sold them. hint hint
