ok thanks to jason for letting me dyno his truck again here are the #s run 1 no unichip 280 hp 279 tq run 3 unichip with tune 304 hp 336 tq that is a gain of 24 hp and 57 tq
now do a tune for different setup and have people ship there chip to you !!!
I think it runs about 13.8. Im not too sure, the only time we measured this was in the first dyno run last week when the truck was tuned. 13.8 was the average after the tune, dunno if this helps i could be wrong.

well nola fyi the reason y the 4.7s get the 3rd switch cause the 5.7s didnt want to wait for the third switch. they had to crack the codes then hurry and get them out THATS Y. we r gonna b the first of all toyotas to try it out and mike said that it should get better gas mileage around town. the flux does not make a difference or not cause the flux was offered to me and i got it to so that will be 3 switches and the flux and the flux isnt gonna b ready for awhile. and when they do he was saying everybody going on a group buy. so i eliminated all that group buy on the flux and bought it. So nola thanks for the group buy
What the Flux allows is access to FIVE different maps instead of three like on your chip or two like on ours, meaning one of my maps can be a mileage map, one a 93 octane performance map, one a 87 octane performance map, and I still have two slots open for a valet map or starter disable map. All of them switchable via bluetooth PDA. I know, Flux won't be ready probably until the end of October.

What I don't understand with Flux, is why we won't be able to down load any updated maps from their website? Seems like a feature that would be really nice and should be easily achievable. I have asked them about this, but never got a response.

As far as I know, that is one of the main features of Flux, the ability to download maps from their website. This is stated in the Flux "more info" PDF on their website. It does say that it will be an update, meaning the ability to download maps from their website could coincide with Flux being released or some time thereafter.

Well its Andrew's secret, but it was dyno'd in 4th gear, speed limiter removed (had it up to 135mph) and all nannies disabled. However this does throw a code and has to be cleared or the dealership will find it. Im not allowed to tell how it was done, but it can be done. The truck shifting into second is the reason Unichip and every other aftermarket company has not shown dynos, only gains. Andrew figured this out.
Did Andrew figure it out on his own? I agree with your thoughts on the speed limiter. Its great for the dyno, but I don't think its safe to drive something this big over 130, especially without properly modifying the truck to do so.

Someone on an FJ Cruiser Forum figured out how to disable the VSC, ABS, and top speed limiter by pulling out a plug from an ECU in the engine bay. Only problem is that the dash lights up with warning lights and they need to be cleared.

no mike t. from unichip gave some good info and from that we worked on it and as far as i am concerned it should never be done unless on a dyno it is not safe in a road condition
great idea now i will start to unplug each plug 1 by 1. & if that is the easy fix, who cares what lights light up on my dash. i'll black all but the speedo out. by using a card board box , custom cut. when done just remove the cover.
i'll do this when i have time.

I didn't ask anyone to start yanking plugs to check and see. Was looking for someone that has ran on the dyno and has done this before. I am planning on posting my results to share with others and was looking to do it in 4th gear to get the most accurate HP results. Thanks for the smart a** comment. Don't you have a Generation 1 truck?

LOL, I don't think Gorilla was being a smart a$$. I think he's actually going to disconnect each plug until it works
