Remap & HKS
A custom ECU remap on the 3.0 platform can achieve nice gains in torque while still retaining all factory components on average should see around 40-50% gains in torque, more torque can be achieved by upgrading to a custom package which could include upgraded turbos, Injectors, Intercooler and much more.
Factory figures
300nm & 125hp at the wheels (on average based on a stock standard Hilux, Prado figure will vary in AWD)

Turbo Upgrades
The 3.0 engine can make substantial gains in torque and power when upgrading with supporting mods. G Turbo has a range of turbos suited for every application and desired outcome.
Exhaust Upgrades
When tuning the 3.0 engine in factory form the exhaust system fitted to the vehicle from stock can be utilised while carrying out an ECU remap, to see if your 3.0 needs an exhaust fitted please give our team a ring to discuss your needs.
Intercooler upgrades
Just Autos has a range of intercooler upgrades for the 3.0 engine, ranging from small upgraded top mounts to larger front mounts depending on vehicle setup.
Injector Upgrades
30% injectors can be custom built in house to achieve the fuelling required when upgrading the vehicle to your desired outcome. Most models will require 30% injectors when upgrading the vehicle factory fitted turbo.
Transmission upgrades
The A340 transmission and A750 transmission the Hilux & Prado is known to be quite an indecisive gearbox and hesitates between gear changes, Just Autos has a range up upgraded valve bodies which can increase internal pressure inside the gearbox to not only help with shifting between gears but can also reduce slip between gear changes to help with reliability
Clutch Upgrades
The clutch fitted from factory on the 3.0 engine is know to fail and slip in standard form but when carrying out any of Just Autos custom packages the factory clutch will need to be upgraded we recommend fitting an NPOC heavy duty clutch to handle the added gain in torque.
