imma ask my cousin husban he owner of p2r hopefully they kno something i'll keep u guys updated
Unless your really good at hard wiring don't try it. If I ever find where my wife stuck my wiring diagram I'll post it up.

From what i've seen on TIS, the voltage is the common 0-4.5 volt toyota always uses.
Cool info. I am inspired to look into this unit a little more.

I know it's a typo but........ 45k RPM .... That's "Dremel" speed. Hell yeah.

For simple bolt-on's it does not seem to be of much benifit. I was actually thinking about a A/F controller to 'optimize' the fuel curve when I get the Mazzuri headers installed. This depends on how the fuel curve looks when all is said and done of course.
I haven't ever heard of a modern car with standard N/A bolt-ons and a stock motor that needed bigger injectors or more fuel. Manufacturers always tune for safety, which means a richer than optimum AFR, and big enough injectors to maintain the rich AFR long enough for the warranty to expire.

That said, all "good" bolt-ons should lean the mixture out some on their own, but modern ECU's will adjust the fuel curve to compensate. At full throttle, the fuel curve might change a bit in shape, but it will still be richer than optimum. That's where a piggy-back can help. If tuned properly, the MAF signal can be manipulated to smooth out the air / fuel curve to give a more optimum power curve. Of course, the fuel curve of a totally stock setup usually provides the most opertunity to gain from fuel tuning since it will usually run richer than it would with good bolt-ons.

Hey guys - Lots of good information here. The more I read the more I am encouraged about using a piggy back to lean these cars out just a tad.

One of my concerns was that a ISx50 with headers etc... would run lean during cruise or partial throttle conditions. It seems that during these conditions the ECU runs in a closed loop mode so it should trim itself back to "normal" for everyday driving. As long as the trims are minor adjustments there should be no CEL light.

It is my understanding that the ECU runs in open loop at WOT. Can anyone confirm this operation for these DI motors? So a piggy back could be used to make A/F adjustments without the ECU negating the adjustments based on its sensor readings over time.

Regards,

The ECU does run open loop at full throttle and high RPMs. My piggy-back lays in wait until 90% or higher throttle and at least 3K RPMs.
