2014 toyota tundra ?....

Post by Joey120373 »

Has a 5.7l V8 DOHC with vvt,

I don’t know if I will tackle this project, as it’s about as complicated as it could get, 4 cams with vvt, Etb and electronic trans control.

Not sure that the current RUSefi Code can handle dual vvt,

And the trans control is another issue. But, if I were to try it, I think it would be in a piggy back configuration. Where I could take control of the injectors and coils, then maybe the ETB and vvt after that.

It’s my main transportation so I don’t want to break it.

Probably the best plan would be to build an interface board/harness to the stock ECU, that way I can intercept the signals I want to and leave the rest as is.

Any advice welcome!

My dream BMW N73 DI is more complicated, this v8 is easy :P :oops: :roll:

But I would not be messing with my daily driver, that's me at least.

v8 is Proteus territory. If you would be willing to do the leg work I am happy to fill firmware gaps. TCU I cannot promise but dual or quad VVT should not be a problem by the time you have this engine wroom-wrooming.

Joey120373,
My question is: What are you looking to do with your Tundra with any RUSEFI system as the Toyota is apparently NOT yet broken? Are you looking to do something special like a turbo/super charger or...? Hmmm, this is your daily driver... Yeah, forget this unless you have another daily driver in mind... ;)

Audrey, yes, your V12 is much more complicated. My old V12 is also in the offing and will be on an upcoming project as well only I have to redo at least one (actually both) of the heads as they were prone to dropping valve seats...

Yeah. I cannot recommend doing this on an already fully functional (and unmodified) 2014 Tundra. Toyota knows what they're doing. Don't F with it!
