    ^^^ Exactly the question to ask. If you're looking to open up a few more ponies, you need to get a Piggyback system for it, so you can keep the stock ECU.

    you can get an emanage blue or ultimate and i think toyota has something called comptech or something like that where you can tune your performance

    also another buddy of mine changed his gear ratio which pushed all the power to the lower end you can notice it lol

    Emanage Blue is going to be your best best. And yes, with a Piggyback, you can keep the stock ECU, it just overrides the computer from wigging out with all the mods, for the most part.

    LOOK AT THE AXEPI POWER FC IT'S GREAT FOR TUNING. THIS WILL REPLACE UR FACTORY ECU THOUGH. U WILL ALSO NEED THE DATALOGER AND COMMANDER TO GET THE FULL POTENTIAL OF THE POWER FC, WILL ALSO ALOW U TO USE A LAPTOP THAT U PLUG THE DATALOGER INTO TO LOG THE INFORMATION THE CAR IS READING.

    U CAN GET ALL TREE ITEMS FOR LIKE $1300. BUT U MAY NOT WANT TO SPEND THAT MUCH IF U JUST HAVE I/H/E. BUT IF UR LOOKING TO GO BOOST IN THE FUTURE, SPEND THE $1300 AND U WONT BE DISAPOINTED.
