I did read somewhere, that there was someone who would take Toyota ECUs and "tune" them for a higher rev limit and fuel maps, but you can do that with a piggback ECU as well.

You would have to lay down some serious cash to do this, but in the end you would have one reving mo-fo.
in the long run....what i want
