[QUOTE="4wd, post: 1108786, member: 393358"] Tried a plug-in "little black box" when I had the Toyota Landcruiser, did definitely get some nice power increase ...at the price of engine randomly going into safety mode (or whatever it was called) with a dozen warning lights in the dash, creeping along with 20 hp until a stop and restart. 1st time it happened I visualized a nice 7500£ engine repair on the horizon :O) Was a microswitch with different curves for power vs economy etc, but none stopped the safety mode from happening. Returned the box and got money back, no problems. Cured my interests for tuning. Surely some of the kits\reprogramming may be very good and hit the mark, suppose one would have to test and try to find the right one. [/QUOTE]
