Whats a good addon fuel computer. Im thinking about getting the Apexi Neo would that work ok with the SC430?

Other then that theres the

LMS i-Manage - looks a bit large

Camcon - Do they make a suitable one for the SC430?

It is my understanding that our car is to smart for piggy-back fuel controllers. The VVTi will re-adjust any changes you make to the mixture. If you go with a stand-alone fuel controller you have to disconnect almost all the related computerized sub-systems.

However, if someone comes up with a configuration that works... I would help persue it.

Find alot of answers @ v-eight.com here:Link "toyota v8 and associated technologies; dedicated to the theory, design and subsequent development & modification of the latest high performance quad cam Toyota V8 engines"

Thanks for the link.

Ive not really found any info saying if they work or not, except cowboys mention that most fuel controllers are as good as each other.

Im sure Lee Pearlpower will chip in. Think he had the Apexi SAFC and the Neo is with my understanding the replacement for that one. Plus it looks pretty good where as the LMS one looks something out of of Tom Bakers Tardis

Apparently this one was running the LMS computer
