Re: Boetamac wanna go Lexus
good evening.
Mike's Place got the 1uz-vvt going for R9500. Same price as the non vvt 1uz.
is there any tuning problems or difficulties going vvt?

Re: Boetamac wanna go Lexus
Go OE(original Ecu) on the VVTi. Note the Ecu will learn to adapt to let the engine set itself for the best ride given it is the complete engine and gearbox.
If you go aftermarket I do not think the aftermarket Ecu's is ready or in a way suited for the VVTi yet.

Re: Boetamac wanna go Lexus
I am down in Cape Town,and the three places importing them does not do wired-up units. If VVTi has these potential issues should i not rather opt to go 1uz-FE?
Any opinions on this idea?
But spitronics does mos a VVTi kit? Does these kits work properly?
