Ha! It's been a while since I've driven a manual - lol. I say the drag race will be in 1 month :D
 
Running pretty good Ramon, very cool!! Congrats.

Are all swaps eligible for this drag race? :)

Sure, just pull the #1 and #8 plug wires :D
 
Does really sound good too Ramon. I've been told that the Toyota ECUs are near impossible to flash/tune, is that correct?
 
He built his own Megasquirt EFI system, so he can do whatever tuning he wants with it.

I have heard the same things about the Toyota ECUs though, little to no tunability / flashibility.

I may be wrong, but I think the stock ECU uses ROM, which is burned at the factory and cannot be written to ever again. I guess, if you were REALLY industrious, you could replace the ROM with EPROM and figure out a way to flash it. MegaSquirt is much newer technology and they are adding features all the time. It supports boost control, so some day I may add a turbo :hmm:
 
Thanks Ramon for giving me a ride yesterday afternoon. Can confirm, this truck is a screamer :steer:
 
Gave Henry's a visit today and got rid of the leaky 'ole Toyota "diamond" coupler and in with a nice v-band clamp. Maybe not surprisingly, the idle smoothed out a good bit. I showed up at around 3, and was out the door by 4. :D

Dang man. That sounds incredible.
 
Pretty cool - got a tablet working with the ECU for a hightech dashboard...



It will communicate via bluetooth when my RS232 - BlueTooth adapter arrives Monday.

:beer: R

Confirmed she holds 70mph up slight hill in 5th gear, approximately 2500RPM without issue. Pedal nowhere near the floor. :D
