Programmer

does anyone know if there is a programmer? i have put 35's and just put in 4.56 gears was wondering if there is any way to program my computer for that.

 

The only chip I know about is Uni chip or the APR X-1. Both are a lot of money.

 

scanguage is your best bet

 

Scangauge won't do ANYTHING but clear codes IIRC

APR X-1 is the high end programmer. URD makes the MAF calibrator that may also help if power is what you are looking for.

What are you trying to "program"??

 

didn't know he wanted anything for mileage. i just thought he wanted something to give him accurate readings of the info...which doesnt the scanguage do that?

 

yea it will, gives you diagnostic info for your vehicle.

 

I re-read his post and realized that gas mileage wasn't necessarily what he was looking for....so i change my post a bit...but he asked for a programmer to change parameters...which the scanguage can't do.

 

is there another guage out there that is a round one similar options? I thought I saw a thread a few weeks ago on it, and have not been able to find it again. One guy actually installed it in his read view mirror!

 

Here you go. It's Pb from toyotanation.

And he did it in the temp gauge.

*Note that he used a first gen Scangauge and not the new ones. So the wiring is going to be different...

 

oh well either way im wrong, scanguage is in fact not a programmer...apr-x-1, urd, and ive heard of JET or something like that but dont know much about it

 

thanks for the post on that mirror. I thought there was a round guage out there....graphical maybe 2.5"'s. still searching the threads. Damn it! where the hell is it

 

ah! found it...

Maybe this multi guage will work for you. Plugs into OBD II ports as well!

 

Pretty Cool, but pricey considering you have to have the boxes for each piece of info you want.

 

boxes? I dont think you need anything else, all complete as it hooks into OBD port. With that interface you use all the tacoma sensors..

 

ya i was kinda thinking someting for mileage i got a lot of power with the gears. only getting like 15 or 16 mpg wondering any advice for better

I could be wrong, but thats how interpret it.
