We retail these thingys (Power FC) at $1545, but I'm sure we could knock a bit off for TS guys. It IS engine dependant though, and I can't guarantee one which is meant for the MR2 3SGTE will suit the caldina, though at the end of the day there's nothing inherently different between them engine wise. So long as the ECU plugs are the same, its still a viable option.

Barry - I was reading a fast fours mag the other night where they installed a PFC to a 2ZZ celica, gained something like 10kW @ wheels after the usual exhaust / filter / blah blah. Its very hard to make power out of an already highly strung N/A motor, but it can be done.

can you give me the date of the mag?

either way, the PFC is there for other things(the ability to actually tune it) than just getting power for nothing.

Power FC are NOT available for the caldina. Believe me - I have done a great deal of research into this including contacting apexi. They are available for ST185, ST205 and SW20 however. :-)

Also, the ST205 Apexi ECU needs to be modified by Power Engineering in Japan before it can be used.

You'd be better of to get a PFC from oversea's....mine cost me $1150.00 plus what ever the overseas trasfer charge is :) (That included the hand controller and extension cable too)
