    Of course it can be done, but I'm with Ahriman... Why would you want to?

    That has everything to do with vehicle speed, gearing and overall wheel size. Currently, you can only affect 2 out of the 3. This is why we have been screaming for a 6-speed option.

    Unfortunately for tC's, the only way to defeat the RPM limiter is via a standalone system. Piggybacks can't change the encrpytion of the Toyota ECM.
