??? You say my statement is false then basically agree with me on why Toyota (It is not really Toyota it is a private company that pays to use the Toyota brand) is not working on his modified car?

I will agree thee are a lot of Tunners and Modders that do lest than quality work. There are also a LOT of Tunners and Modders that do great work and improve the product for their specific application/wants. Not sure where in the USA you are at but here in the Metroplex there are a lot of good tuning shops that turn out a quality product.

How long after the recall did this happen? I had my recall done at Toyota in Irvine and my engine is doing ok, but just curious.
