07 4runner v8 - where to buy a performace chip? A coworker is looking for more power in his new 07 4runner v8. Is there a plug in chip or does one need to send in the ECU? Thanks for the help!

Chips for toyota's dont work like that.
What you need it a tuner, in import cars, you cant just replace the chip, you need to work with the stock computer.
www.URDUSA.com makes products for the 4.7l v8.

Sorry let me edit my post...

Chips for toyota's dont work like that.
What you need is a tuner, in import cars, you cant just replace the chip, you need to work with the stock computer.
www.URDUSA.com makes products for the 4.7l v8. For a N/A motor i believe you need a MAF calibrator so you can tune in your A/F ratio's. You'll also need a wideband o2 sensor to monitor the A/F ratios.
With a good tune on a stock motor you can usually gain 10-20hp, but if you already have headers, exhaust, intake, etc, a good tune will net you close to 30hp. Best place to look would probably be tundrasolutions.com because their trucks have the same motor yours does. I personally have only looked at a site a few times and i hear the people there arent near as freindly as the ones here. Good luck.
