No, it is a piggy back system that is undetectable by dealers. it can easily be removed since there is a harness for it. The dealer will never know.

NOLA 1906 even though i already have the UNICHIP for my 2005 VVTI v8 4.7l iforce tundra.
and my UNICHIP pnp display module,is already installed.

just count me in, i'll just buy another, if and only if , this new UNICHIP module has the feature of the speed limitor disabled.

hi, if anyone from gen1 has a 2005 or 2006 and you buy the UNICHIP,
i will help guide you with the install.
just make sure you have it mapped correctly for your mod's.
i.e. volant cold air intake is the ONLY cai unichip has a map for, what i mean by that is K & N for these years will not work.
but a drop in filter will work, and a total stock air box will also work.
headers are for all type's, cat back exhaust is for all type's of exhaust's.

since i did mine myself.
i can and will help each and everyone of you, with a 2005 and 2006.

the plug's and sockets are specific to each socket so you can not make a mistake, by putting the wrong plug in a different socket.

I am interested depending on what the mpg gains are. When will we see those numbers?

I am also having trouble opening the dyno attachment.

Ok, this sounds a little complicated, I am new to chips (will be my first) so help me out a little bit. Using your example, a k&n intake is not compatible with the chip? what happens if I had the k&n and not the volant? Would the chip still work? Sorry for the idiot questions guys!

NOLA,
If they need a setup with an Airaid, DT Headers and Zoomers, I wonder if they would send on to my local area Unichip tuner (M5/Modacar-Unichip Custom Tuner in Livermore, CA)?

[lawdog2k]

Where is a list of their tuning stations? I looked on their website and could not find any locations.

[NOLA_1906]

Ok The Unicchip has the ability to remove the speed limiter, but they haven't done so yet. They said if there is enough interest they will.

I don't know what happened with the dyno chart, but I'll just post a link back to the original thread.

The mpg gains haven't been completely verified, but I would expect a 2-3 mpg increase minimum. PullThis can verify his increase.

I'm waiting on the list of cai's and cb exhausts that they have tuned for.

As far as tuning stations, if you go to their website and select the Tundra 5.7 tuner, there will be a button for a dealer locator. it will give you a list of tuners in your state. There may not be any close to you unfortunately. My closest tuner is an hour and a half drive away.

Thanks guys. Feel free to ask any questions.

[NOLA_1906]

Here's the link to gorilla's dyno. Sorry about that.

Gorilla's Dyno results.. POSTED !!!

[NOLA_1906]

Okay, to those waiting on other options, what specific features are you seeking? If its speed limiter or shift points or whatever, just list them so that i can give feedback to Unichip so that they know many want those features. thanks.

I'm waiting on that answer as well as a few others. I think i've relayed all questions that have been posed so far and I'm just waiting to hear back from him. My contact is the regional sales manager, and he was flying to Cali the last time we spoke. So it may be a day or so before he responds, but as soon as he does, so will I. Thanks.

Okay Tundrenalin, here is the answer to your question. Basically one is Flux-equipped, the other is not. See comments below.

The only diffrance is flux. I could tell you about flux all day long. If you visit our website and click on the flux link you will learn what you need. Also understand we are working on the new OBDII CAN system which all 07-08 toyota have. Untill we unlock the code flux will not be sold with the kits. You can purchase it and we will ship them as an upgrade. Flux is great fun and gives end user abilities that don't have with others tuners. Keep in mind flux does not include the PDA, the customer must purchase it for someone else.


I will be back in town Friday to help out more!

Flux is amazing! It's tuning software for PDA's. A few features are:

+Display, measure, record and play real-time engine performance data
+Wireless Bluetooth Connectivity
+5 user-selectable performance calibrations
+Scan, read & clear Diagnostic Trouble Codes
+Valet mode RPM Limiter
+Password protected vehicle immobilizer
+Virtual Dynamometer
+Measure acceleration times
+Drag strip with elapsed time, trap speed
+Lap Timer
+Tire Size Correction
+User-selectable shift lights

*EDIT* Currently with the Flux, you will have the ability to choose from 5 different preset maps, but those maps must be downloaded from Unichip or a certified tuner. Unichip will release software in the near future which will allow end users to customize maps.

I'm still waiting on him to verify that the 4.7 is supported. If it isn't yet, it definitely will be before this group buy is completed.

[cheech_029]

Sorry if this question has been addressed already, if so I haven't read it, but who is going to be setting the calibrations for each tuner?

Will we have to tell exactly what we have installed on our trucks and then they will come calibrated?

Or will each of us have to find a local UniChip authorized installer to program it for us?

Finally, what systems does the flux work with? Meaning: does it have to be operated with a PDA, with windows mobile, or can we just use a laptop with windows XP or Vista? Also, what is the cost for flux?

Thanks.
