I don't even think the unichip piggyback will have enough correction capability to get the ECM to fuel for any larger amounts of boost. A standalone aftermarket ECM also won't work because our stock ECMs also control the transmission.
Yea most "performance" mods for the 5.7 Tundra are pretty much pointless right now. You won't realize the true gains until somebody comes out with a true all around tuner.
