There is no option to reflash your car back to stock, at least not yet according to TRD. I had to buy a whole new ECU. Once my friend installs the s/c with my old reflashed ECU, I'll get his stock one and I might be able to sell it.

Seems like a waste of money to do anything but just buy a new factory ecu.

The e-manage cannot tune partial throttle, so anything below 4k RPM / non-WOT you're running dangerously rich (so basically all the time). Even if you get the partial throttle thing from Dezod, you still need to pay for tuning, since running a base-map is nothing short of stupidity.

So you're in to this project about 7-8-900 bucks, all to maintain 'stock' power.

And there's still a chance the emanage will fail.

And if it fails, you pay for it all out of pocket, because Toyota isn't going to honor anything when they see a couple of boxes hardwired into your ECU, or even if you try to scam it by removing them, they'll see you still have the TRD map on your computer and wonder why you're still running it.

Don't halfass things with your car. Pony up and buy a new oem ecu.

Use Dezod's Partial Throttle Black Box. Problem solved.

I mentioned that. No problem has been solved. You're still paying more for a bunch of stuff you don't need.

If he's pulling the blower off, there's no need to drop another couple hundred bucks on an emanage, another hundred for dezod's box, and another ~300 for a decent tune that sets the car at near-stock power...while still taking the risk of the TRD-flashed OEM computer overwriting changes and wrecking the engine.
