    I had p219a/b on the URD AFR calibrator. Took it off and never got it again until UCON installed. Toyota ECU doesn't like it when we're fiddling with the WRAF signals.

    so...has anyone installed a magnuson S/C and UCON with the gears and had no problems?

    Im getting down to crunch time to purchase all the above but continuously read about these stories. Im debating just a S/C and TRD Flash since most seem to be alright with that combo but I really like the idea of the UCON and gear swap.

    Should I be concerned? I have an '11 that has never been flashed so the ECU is stock. As for the engine, I have the URD TCAI which I will make work with the S/C...

    If you plan on doing a UCON, don't do the TRD flash. At least on my truck, the TRD flash didn't work well with the UCON. Thankfully a $99 eBay ECU and a paperclip got me back to stock.

    The TRD flash by itself is fine, though if you're not too picky. Also, it's about $1500 cheaper than the UCON. ;)

    Yes stock non-supercharged ECU. Started out with the TRD flash and it didn't work so well.
