Scion gt86 owners 2013-2019
Has anyone yet began to unlock the stock potential of there gt86 vehicles ecu with an "Openflash Tablet" provided by RomRaider written software updates, or Ecu-Tek hardware..??? Please note that this doesn't apply to owners of force induction FA20 engines, explicitly meaning without the use of a turbo-charger or super-charger bolt-on to the FA20 engine block...

Cool, so have you approximated and determined your performance results. If you don't mind me asking what are your guesstimated power and torque out-put ratings from the fly wheel..😀
I have an idea of where my performance ratings stand ;even though I haven't dyno tested the car.. I'll share my values and tell you how I arrived at my guesstimated numbers.. |

+5 hp tune
+5 hp header |
I guess this was all you did so far..
Did u try uploading tunning software yet ? I have done the following : 1. Performance equal length headers 2. Permance Full cat back exhaust 3. Aluminum drive shaft 4. Turbo fuel pump that can displace fuel at 365Lph I think I gotta re-check that spec. 5. K&N drop box air filter 6. Openflash tablet tune, I just started customizing my own tunes for this hardware like 2 years ago, after learning more. |

What is that image in your reply box ??

Does ECU-TEK offer financing?
|
I can't believe so many of us wasted our time with stupid turbos and Superchargers. The answer was within our reach this whole time- methamphetamine!

Buy the hardware on the ft86 website... Its only about $500 for the hardware.. You can pay someone to help you manipulate the mappings and others software settings that it comes with.. Or you could just look up forums with those whom have YouTube videos and others who give details on how to use the software for performance tunning..
Yup that's why they refused to offer this engine a turbo for soooo many years.. Besides the stock air fuel compression ratio is 12.5/1.0.. Which means for every 12.5 grams of air per sec the engine allows 1.0 gram/sec of fuel for a combustion.. Since the amount of air that can be compressed is set at such a high rate by stock standards. Technically it's already a very considerably high induction of air.. Our stock compression ratio is equivalent to those compression values of a supercharged force inducted engine.. |
Yea, so by default the compressor in the FA20 engine literally provides the air quality of a supercharger and turbo charged engine. Toyota just didn't want to give us a better ecu mapping of the software because their motto is to concentrate on making engines that are more reliable and safe, hence by default of those guide lines buyers suffer on performance output, but if you think about it Toyota saved us money on our insurance policy because they could have easily given us 255 hp if they tweeked the ecu software settings with this FA20 engine without the use of Force inductions air compressors.. So to help us enjoy this gift of an engine investors put out tunning hardware to help market the potential of this car.. Notice how these tunning hardwares were almost released around the same time this car was available to purchase.

If you ain't a troll, my deepest sympathies
|
This is so good. Maybe the reason nobody is unlocking the potential is because everyone has the Subaru variant of the FA20, instead of Toyota's?
|
You can buy the tunning hardware on the link provided.

Nah, it's the same engine, but it's introduced with Toyota's d-4s technology.

i'm going be ROFLing if these things are claimed to be worth 20 hp |
Toyota can do the same thing Honda and Nissan do but they purposely don't tweek the ecu to make it a high performance engine when purchased. They usually leave it up to the user/ buyer to make the changes to the maps to make it a more competitive performing car.. Were as Honda and Nissan focus more on performance so its more likely that they tweek the ecu a little more and alot more in some cases for there performance cars.. Toyota will more likely only concern themselves with quality and reliability of the engine design before they decide to tweek the ecu to make there cars more performance oriented to provide to their buyers..

but subaru developed the ecu. subaru knows how to tune and tweak ecu's to develop decent power out of the box.
|
What are you using to dilute the water or is it strait from the tap?

Please tell me where this so-called "compressor" is in the FA20, and please tell me more about how Toyota didn't have time to tune the software since apparently they were responsible for the development of a Subaru engine. |
Most manufacturers leave it up to the customer to destroy their vehicle.
|
Honestly, I'm sure he's waiting for someone to send him a private message asking where to buy the tune, and then will scam the poor bastard who is ignorant enough to believe him.
Something to the effect of "Ah, well I can sell you an engine chip with the tune. It plugs right into the obd2 port and programs automatically" |
Please research "volumetric efficiency" before posting anymore.
On second thought, don't. This is more fun :D |
Oh boy it's been a while since a troll came along.
We forgot how stupid they sound compared to "some" members posts. Know what I mean? |

Wait, guys I'm trying to scam any of you.. I'll show you guys a link on how I estimated what my hp should be valued at. This is the manufacturers site of the fuel pump I purchased... It has a fuel injector calculator, it uses other parameters that you can plug in the tab spaces to estimate hp.. I'll post the link with this message, so you can overview it.. You can decide for yourself, as far as tunning we can discuss what I have done. I'll be willing to share it, at that point you can dyno my tunes and discuss your results, I my self would like to know how accurate these calculated values are compared with a dyno. This link is easy to use.. Since I don't have dyno sheets I think its only fare that you guys see how I've estimated my alleged hp values.https://www.deatschwerks.com/fuel-ca...tor-calculator
