I once had big plans for a certain Italian car, but in the end, it wound up being a better piece of sculpture. Kind of a sad reality, but life is too short.
I just looked where I thought it was; was not there.
I do recall that besides power and ground, the other connections were to the maf wires that handled mixture, and the crank sensor for timing. The unichip was placed in-line on one side of the sensor's circuits, to alter the signal going back...
I've got one in one of my tool boxes, can dig it out here soon.
Is it already calibrated for you, if not, how do you plan to make the adjustments for your engine?
My car had made some noise, it was the valves sticking slightly.
The sound went away, slowly, with regular oil changes, lots of freeway driving.
Tuning will help also, as the car won't be so rich, which can contribute to carbon buildup, sticking valves.
I want to buy some from a vendor when I get my tune-up parts, but the descriptions are pretty loose on aftermarket exhaust gaskets.
Does anyone know, say the correct Bosal PN for the convertor to pipe gaskets?
You could duplicate the cross section of the oem housing with some fabricated tubing, but, as others have mentioned, the setup is very sensitive, and you'll likely wind up in open loop mode.
A way to fix that would be to also include the bypass section in the tubing, complete with tuning...
I looked into this a few years ago, found the stock intake runners to start at 41.5mm and end at around 38mm at the head.I've had several cars with Webers and homemade intake manifolds in the past.
I did find this site to be interesting;

Just never...
I was riding in a Montero once and the spark plugs were starting to change themselves, thought the thing had thrown a rod!
I would also lean towards the Landcruiser.
(btw the older 4-Runners were improved with a 3.4 sometime towards the end...)
Just got through reading about the upcoming IS-F; 5.0(stroked 4.6) V-8, with 416hp/371tq.
The car weighs in at 3700 or so, with an electronic, performance-oriented 8 speed automatic that shifts in a tenth of a second.
All at a price of $60K.
That's funny about the "boundary layer flow separation" claims in that article; I can clearly see how that would apply to aeronautics, where a wing is a valid control surface, but engines are pumps; different application entirely.
I have sharpened the divider into a more agreeable profile on...
