on ebay, theres ECU chips, thinking bout getting it.

1. is it safe?
2. will my car last as long?
3. toyota warranty problem?
4. misc?

they show DYNO specs that look somewhat impressive.

so are you saying its not safe? even though it says that the frequency stays within manufactures specifications.

AHAHAHA those chips..AHAHAHHAAHA I remember zooming in onto that pic they had and brought a resistor like it. And had it check to make sure same one they sell..It gaved my Maxima 900 Hp to the junk yard haha. (I actually wrecked my car).. Its truly POS but just alters the older car models to waste gas. Its like giving a kid advil and telling him its eXtacy and he think he is on it and going nuts that he is on it.

Buy the $4000 Toyota brick and you can. =P

Toyota ECUs don't need special programming. Tuners (like TOMs) makes specific preprogrammed ECU specs so your car performs at peak w/ the mods you have. Toyota ECUs learn driving habits and adjust to get peak performance at your normal driving pattern while achieving awesome gas milage! (Assuming your transmission has ECT-i)

I get about 22-23 mpg , thats not all that good. maybe i drive stop and go too often.

I tried. The anology didnt sound right haha. Also no wonder I get so bad gas milage. The computer learned the habit that I gun the car too much now that when I drive slow it still drinks gas. Either that or solara is meeting its retirement days.
