Swapping ECU's? - Toyota Yaris Forums

Nexus1155 · 05-31-2010, 12:57 PM

I have everything in my shop/home to tune every brand of car short of a dyno. I have been doing this for a few years as just a side hobby because it is fun to me.

So if you are trying to ridicule me it will not work. It would be like me going into your thread and commenting on your turbo project and stating the obvious.

I am not going to have a who's dick is bigger than who's contest, but there are plenty of affordable management systems around. Theres Wolf, Haltech, Perfect Power to name just some ones that are under $1800, I am not talking about some $3000 Motec system.

You always think I am trying to prove you wrong, but I am not, I am just stating that if someone wanted to go out ad buy a piggyback system, they can get away with spending $150 on ebay for a blue, another $100 for some cables and whatnot for it, get someone to wire it for another $100, and then tune for like $300. $650 in total. Whereas you would need to spend $1800 on that unit, and then another $300 on top for them to tune it.

You make me sad cdydyjd
I am not Tamago
Don't think this is a special writeup, I'm peterpooping in the bathroom right now on YW

PS: The only reason that MI is the only vendor is because Garm monopolized the Yaris market, it's a smart move, and if that isn't clear to see then I do not know what is. Unless you come out with something major and custom and cool that you refuse to sell to Garm, then there will be more vendors.

WTF? Tuned to get it's max power, since it has a conservative tune; but tuned to work properly? WTF?

I must be giving people killer deals then. I should double my prices lol I try to keep low for economy and to help people out., but anyone who would charge you over that to splice in like 20 or so wires, and anything more than $150 per hr tuning is too much imho
