What are the pros and cons of such a mod? What kind of improvement is possible? Where's a reliable place to do it? Thanks.

Personally, I would only ever trust the Emerald/Dave Walker route.

nope - you generally need a new ECU e.g. Emerald on the K series..and the yota engined cars are locked...a few people can do them

..theres not much point anyway unless you have quite a few other mods - the stock ECU can usually cope with about 20% more power anyway..so on a Rover K you can change exhaust/cat/manifold, mild cams etc on the stock ECU and get 155bhp easy enough ...only if you want more like wilder cams and direct to head throttle bodies would you need to change the ECU
