If you are looking for more power out of your truck, a Toyota Tundra performance chip can be an excellent upgrade. Toyota tunes its vehicles to run in a wide variety of conditions and for all kinds of driving, so any vehicle is set up as a compromise. They also tune their vehicles to run on regular 87 octane gas, since this is what most people are willing to put into their cars.

If you want to run with a little more performance and are willing to use premium, high octane gas, then a performance chip is right for you. A chip basically remaps the ignition cycle of the engine.

It will advance the ignition timing and may even change the amount of fuel and air that are injected. An advanced ignition timing means higher temperatures, higher compression, and more power. All this translates into higher heat, which could lead to premature detonation of the fuel in the chamber, which can cause engine damage. The higher octane fuel ensures that the fuel does not spontaneously combust before the spark is applied at the proper time. One interesting aspect about installing a Toyota Tundra performance chip is that you can actually see better gas mileage. Since you are getting more power from the same amount of gas, you spend less high at full throttle to get the same acceleration, and you will not need to have the gas pedal down as far to be able to maintain speed. Installing a Toyota Tundra performance chip should only be attempted by someone familiar with the functioning of the truck’s computer.You can order a Toyota Tundra performance chip from our catalogue and get up to 20 more horsepower out of your truck.
