If you want rock-solid reliability and don't want to mess with a standalone ecu, just put a stock Toyota ecu back into it!

Regarding the "usb port too fast" excuse, just try it with a different (older) computer. If you can duplicate the problem with another computer, the problem is definitely in the ecu (and not with the computer).

Do you mean USB cables? Again, you need to try it with another computer, not another cable. If the ecu won't talk to a different computer, then the ecu is bad. My advice (primarily based on your frustration level) is to get a bone-stock ecu and get rid of the Autronic. Standalone ecu's are only for someone with either deep pockets (to pay installers/tuners) or someone with a lot of patience, time and expertise.

Hmmm...wasn't the injector problem the 'hunch' I provided in my first post (above)? Glad you've got the problem solved!
