JAS21 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Anyone have any experience of re-mapping a D-Max the 2012 3Ltr engine... I see the ECU Thailand web site. Or any other reputable company. My Racechip is OK but I'm considering a remap .. My Racechip will be available if anyone is interested. All who would share their experience would be appreciated.... thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lingnoi34 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Any remapping or use of piggy back system will lead to increased wear on engine and reduced engine life incl. turbo charger. If you want more power then get the model with bigger engine. Regards, L Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want more power then get the model with bigger engine... Which is it, you can't read or you can't understand or is it you know <deleted>> All about <deleted>> All. The D-Max 3ltr is the biggest engine. Yours is the sort of answer that a complete Dick Head who is recovering from too much ear medicine would give .. 'kin useless and of no help whatsoever ...not that I'm inferring that is the case with you of course. Well I suppose you tried to help ... so a sort of thank you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raffo77 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 (edited) OP, you already stated the name of the well known remapper, so why ask? here's a link: http://www.piasiniengineering.com/ Edited January 26, 2015 by raffo77 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcdiver Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 http://www.ecu-shop.com/isuzu/ monster max and boost speed mark 2. better air intake/filter and new exhaust. this will give you about 50% better hp and torque and much better response. will make you wonder why you fooled around with race chip, like I did... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks ... I have just got this back ... unfortunately no demo vehicle available What do you think ... he says very little smoke ... I wonder ... if it runs smoother and a little extra torque then I would be happy. My EGR is blanked at present .. couldn't get a definite from him which is best with remapping. Twenty thousand baht inc Dyno test .. I don't need the test though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seedy Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 (edited) That's a 50% torque increase. Impressive ! Burn premium diesel - Shell V-Power always works well. And fuel injector cleaner on a regular basis. You will most probably see a Km per Liter increase too - if you can keep your foot out of it !

Regards, L Remaps or piggy back ECUs do not cause increased wear or reduced engine life, abuse of the engine is the only thing that will do that and that depends on the driver. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be argued that - if after mods the fuel mileage increases - that this indicates less stress on the engine. And argued successfully.

JAS21 Posted January 26, 2015 Author Share Posted January 26, 2015 (edited) I am very tempted ... have to admit that it's just a toy for me as I don't drive fast but I do like the quick pick up of speed when needed ... I really hate the way that many drivers here accelerate slowly when they enter a more major road causing those on the road to slow. The truck is out of warranty soon and I'm going to keep it at least another year. so I will go and talk to the company ... below is his reply to my initial questions ... for me I didn't get a satisfactory answer on the EGR blanking How does the auto gearbox handle that torque? … I need a higher spec fluid in the box? The gearbox can handle this Torque without any problems because you don't drive with full throttle all the time, no you can use the standard oil. How much does it smoke under acceleration? There will be a very little smoke only The EGR … at present the engine take sometime to warm up … it warmed up really quickly before fitting of the blanks. Since fitting the blanks it runs much smoother at low RPM and obviously has more power down there and the oil remains reasonably clean. Surly the remapping is different with and without EGR blanked? What is your experience? Some customer they close the EGR some they keep it original Is it easy to go back to original mapping. Yes it's easy to revert it back to original. What are the costs of re-mapping.? It's THB.22,000.- including Dyno test Do you have a 3Ltr D-Max that I could test before I commit myself Sorry I don't have it Your business is at Taling Chan? I am not far from Ngam Wong Wang Mall Nonthaburi Yes it's not far off from Nonthaburi I'll give an update .................

IMHO Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 (edited) +1 for ECU Shop - I can't think of anyone else that has more experience at diesel tuning, or better electronics engineers & production (their stuff is made in house). The reason he wasn't so wordy in his response to EGR blanking is that it's a system that's only active at idle speeds. It doesn't actually make more HP.

Ace of Pop Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 They are a bit of fun when boosted, but be aware when and how you use it, Without FWD when pulling out it can just sit there with loads wheelspin,and your only halfway through the turn looking a right Chump. Done it, got the T Shirt. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know about the ECU Shop in Chiang Mai? I was told they were closed. Any other shop location in Chiang Mai for remap and exhaust for Toyota 3.0 4x4 ?

initiala4 Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Just a thought... Problem on the transmission is not about full throttle all the times, its the torque from the engine that kills the transmission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
