i dare say if your doing almost 3000rpm at 100kms thats probably part of the reason for bad fuel economy, but really you need to get some data logs of whats happening to see for sure.

A couple of people have, try doing a search for "hilux", you'll find a few threads and storys about vs v6 and 4l60e in hiluxs. Mostly, i think, were not conversion problems, but wiring issues, but if you have a bit of a read you'll lean something no doubt

it is a S1 VN engine running a VP BAAM ECM '808 with a Delco ARBP 4435 SV3800 memcal. I have just bought a spare ecu which is a VP BABR '808 with a BABR 3575 would this better suit?? i was looking at doing the NVRAM ECM conversion with the USB serial interface from VL400 for in car tuning. Is this still my best option or can you suggest anything better "delcowizzid" ?

Cheers to VL400 for the ECM upgrade.. Can't wait to get it all installed and start working on some custom tunes for the lux. :punk:
