I know nothing about Power FC's. If you have one, can a Toyota dealer plug into it just like the stock ECU in order to do maintenance work, etc. Also, does a Power FC throw CEL's or anything? Or do you just know your turbo engine is screwed when smoke is pouring from under the hood :chuckles:?

no PowerFC is not even OBD, so any OBD sensor will not be able to read stuff off ECU. This is why PowerFC is illegal at emission strict places.

Exactly what Mike said, no they will not get any reading when they plug into the OBDII port. Also it should still throw CELs

But you can plugin the PowerFC yourself with the controller.
