There you go folks, the much anitcipated Plug 'n Play kit for the '09-> 4-liter Tacoma is up for sale on the site. Sorry for the wait!!!
Little bit more quality testing on the 2010 FJ & then we'll release that too.
19 April 2010
Well done the teams over at Turbochargers.com & Splitsecond performance with their twin turbo Lexus IS-F!
They tell us that they have another exciting project looming & they will be doing the tuning with the Unichip, of course!
7 April 2010
Our Plug 'n Play harness for the '09->Tacoma & '10-> FJ is in final testing so hopefully we'll be releasing the kit within the next month.
We are releasing the roadspeed-limit removal function for the 5.7 Tundra on a limited basis so contact us if you're interested in this.
2 April 2010
Be sure to check Aaron's Projects Blog to see how the Scion XB tune with the DESCENDANT intake manifold is coming along!
1 April 2010
HESCO has done the first hardwire Unichip Q tune on a 2008 model 350Z . We do not yet have a Plug 'n Play harness for the 3-plug ECU found on the later 350's but we always knew that the hardwire install would work well! Contact the guys at HESCO support@hesco.us if you're in the area & you want your Z tuned , you will not be disappointed.
We also have a hardwire schematic for the 370Z : we're dying to see what a Unichip Q with a proper tune will do for this car . Hopefully we get our hands on a car soon for a tune but if there's any tuners out there who want to have a go , contact us for the wiring schematic .

We're testing a new feature on the '05-'06 Scion TC Plug 'n Play kit : elliminating the CEL caused by CAT removal when installing headers . Testing should be done by month-end & then we'll add the feature as an option to the kit . Please bear in mind that this would be for off highway racing applications only. Unfortunately the wires that we tap into for this function are not part of the harness wires that our regular Plug 'n Play kit covers so 2 extra wires will be supplied which need to be manually wired into 1 of the ECU wires . Instructions will obviously be available. We will certainly be offering this feature as an option on more of our Plug 'n Play kits in the future to reduce the use of "cat-foolers".
16 March 2010
The tunes for the '09-> 1800 Corolla are done & we'll have the kit up for sale on the website shortly . Most of the popular bolt-on parts are covered.
We should be able to start with the tuning of the Scion XB with the Descendant intake manifold later this week.
10 March 2010
Success! We have removed the roadspeed limiter on the '05/'06 Tundra , with no apparent side-effects . We will offer the roadspeed removal as an optional upgrade on our Plug 'n Play kits for these trucks . Unfortunately the wires that we tap into for this function are not part of the harness wires that our regular Plug 'n Play kit covers so 2 extra wires will be supplied which need to be manually wired into 1 of the ECU wires . Instructions will obviously be available.

We forgot to mention that we have an '06 Tundra in the shop as well , delivered to us courtesy of a Tundrasolutions Forum member . It's here to see whether we can remove the roadspeed limiter . Unrelenting pressure on us from the Forum for this! Let's see if we get 'er done!
23 February 2010
The 2009 1.8-liter Toyota Corolla test mule has arrived . We have done preliminary power runs & we have created a wiring schematic for the Unichip installation . We have tunes lined up for all the popular bolt-on parts including INJEN , TAKEDA & K&N Cold Air Intakes. Tuning will commence shortly!
The DESCENDANT intake manifold for the 2.4 2UZ engine (TC & XB) has also arrived . As soon as we're done tuning the Corolla we'll hop onto the tunes for this manifold , coupled with all the popular Cold Air Intakes.
12 February 2010
You asked , we delivered ! A more affordable version of our tuning software is up for sale on the website . Branded Uni-Tune software , this is the most basic kit required to tune a Unichip . A software unlock code will allow use of this kit on your laptop enabling tuning of any Unichip Q or Q+ , including those found in our Plug 'n Play kits . We will also be adding more tuning products such as multiple-map switches which will allow tuners to load & tune more than the usual two maps into a Unichip , including Unichips found in our Plug 'n Play kits. Mutiple maps are a cool feature of the Unichip , adding very exciting dimensions to a tuning project . Tuners will also be able to upgrade their Uni-tune kits by purchasing our tuning pots , make tuning on a dyno much easier.
As always , we welcome any e-mail questions that you may have regarding any of our products.

We are proud to welcome MAC Autosport as one of our new Tuners. Located in Parker , Colorado , the guys at MAC Autosport are highly experienced & respected in tuning circles . Check out their website www.macautosport.com . We're excited to see what projects they'll tackle with the Unichip!

Our Plug 'n Play kits for the Scion TC & XB are proving so popular that we've been inundated with requests for a kit for the 1.8-liter Corolla . It uses our 2x6 Plug 'n Play harness so all we need to do is build calibrations for the various bolt-on parts . The kit is on the shortlist so we should be able to get a test mule in within the next month. We've also had requests for calibrations for the DESCENDANT intake manifold for the 2.4 TC & XB . As soon as we get a manifold & test mule to our facility we'll build the calibrations .
15 December 2009
Another new section on our website : Exhausts . We have some top quality exhaust parts in stock & as more products become available we'll add them too . We're also always open to ideas , suggestions , Group Buys or wholesale enquiries for any of our parts.
5 November 2009
Even more Blank Harnesses available! These harnesses are identical to the robust ones used in all our Plug 'n Play kits . If you're tired of so-called "patch-harnesses" failing on you , here's your answer.
10 October 2009
Check out some of the latest arrivals in our Blank Harnesses section, just what your custom project needs! We'll be adding some more harnesses as they become available within the next few months. So if you're thinking about that larger turbo upgrade , remember to include a blank harness in your build checklist for a professionally finished project.

Heads up! We should have our first batch of Plug 'n Play kits for the Golf V Gti in stock by mid-October . Apart from a plug-in 35hp extra , the kit offers all the usual features of our Plug 'n Play kits . This means that not only does the kit make a serious amount of extra power , it also renders the Engine Management System fully programmable , just what the bigger-turbo boys want to hear! Remember , our Tuner Kits are up for rent as well , so if there's no Unichip Custom Tuner near you , ask your local Tuner to contact us for details about a rental Tuner Kit. We can normally help with Air-To-Fuel Ratio equipment as well. The high-resolution , real-time tuneability means that no other product can produce the same result as the Unichip.
Like always we'll post the kit up for sale as soon as we have pricing etc. sorted out.
3 September 2009
Due to popular demand by those who prefer their Scion XB with forced induction , we've added the roadspeed-limiter removal feature to our Plug 'n Play kit for the '08-> XB . Simply type "Remove roadspeed limiter" in the comments section of the checkout when ordering a kit.
We have also completed tunes for some more of the popular bolt-on accessories such as the Weapon R , Injen & AFE(Takeda) intakes , so we'll post those on the site pretty soon. We'll also post some videos of the dyno runs with some of the bolt-on's in place .
What we have also just started offering is the rental of our Tuner kits . This is especially for folks who'd like to have one of our Plug 'n Play kits custom tuned for a special application , such as for the addition of a turbo . So if there's no Unichip Custom Tuner near you , get your local tuner to contact us & we'll hook him up with a rental kit .
Our much anticipated Plug 'n Play harnesses for the '09-> 4-liter Tacoma are almost here , just a little while longer , promise!
7 August 2009
Hey there Scion XB owners ! The first tunes for the '08-> Scion XB 2.4 liter are complete & up for sale on the website . We've posted a few tunes & as we finalize more tunes for the various bolt-on configurations we'll have them available too. The kit compliments the bolt-on's nicely just like the rest of our Plug 'n Play kits do on other vehicles, once again proof that if you fit a Cold Air Intake to your engine , you have to modify the ECU to take full advantage of the extra air.
We've also added the Isuzu D-MAX turbodiesel to our line-up . This is a very hot seller worldwide & demand for the kit is very strong , so get yours now before the shelves are once again empty! We'll be adding a few more turbodiesel kits within the next few months . Our kit for the '09 TDi Jetta is currently undergoing final quality testing in our own Jetta & the power output results are just as spectacular as we're achieving elsewhere in the world with different grades of diesel. This kit will be on offer on our website pretty soon . Local demand has been high for the '06 TDi Jetta kit that we offer in countries like the UK so we will likely offer that kit here soon as well.
Keep you posted!
