Remote ECU tune · 4.0L 1GR-FE V6
A custom Stage 1, 2 or 3 calibration for your Toyota Tacoma 4.0 V6 (1GR-FE), built by hand by a real tuner from your own stock file and datalog, and back with you within three hours of the file arriving. We tune these cars remotely, worldwide: you read and flash with your own HP Tuners interface, and you pay only once the tune is delivered.
Stock vs tuned
From the factory the Toyota Tacoma 4.0 V6 (1GR-FE) makes 236 hp and 266 lb-ft (361 Nm). A Stage 1 tune typically adds 15–20 hp and 18–24 lb-ft, for around 251–256 hp in total.
