Firsty of all before you get excited, no, as much as I wish, I havent fitted the steinbauer to my hilux. Im posting this post on behalf of CROSSSPORT to help him out since he needed help posting pictures and the like so here is his post -
!!OK HERE WE HAVE IT!!
This is not a thread full of what gains might a certain power module provide your hilux with.
It is the hardcore proof that many have asked for and not received. Many will throw figures at you and hope you believe it in order for them to achieve a sale.
Well here is the proven results for the STEINBAUER power module fitted to a 2007 Toyota Hilux D4D automatic dual cab running 265/75/16 tyres.
This vehicle had a humex 3inch exhaust fitted prior to the module being fitted.
Here are the dyno results that were achieved from the exhaust only.
As you can see the vehicle is producing 286.1NM of torque @ 88kph and 81.1KW of power @ 130kph in standard non modified form.
After 3 inch exhaust fitted the vehicle is producing 324.1NM of torque @ 88kph and 89.0KW of power @130kph
A good increase in torque of 38NM and a slight increase in power of 7.9KW , money well spent by all means.
And this is the dyno results after the steinbauer module was fitted.
This dyno report shows standard non modified torque and power as previous dyno report, and the torque and power figures with the 3 inch exhaust and steinbauer module fitted.
As you can see max torque is 359.1NM @102kph and max power is 104.2KW @132kph.
So the module has added another 35NM of torque and an extra 15.2KW of power.
These figures are all rear wheel torque and power, so if you add 30% as an average for drive train loss you end up with:
Flywheel torque: 466.83NM
Flywheel power: 135.46KW
A great outcome and as far as money outlaid and the end result I would say very well worth it.
Now these figures are with the module in it's factory setting. So for those who didn't know the steinbauer module is adjustable.
So with extra time on the dyno it may be possible to improve on even these figures even further.
As far as I see it this proves who is the leader in the power module debate without a doubt.
I will happily accept that I may be wrong................If anyone can show me actual results as I have done, of any other module that is producing better results,quality and value for money.
Until such a time I'm sold on the steinbauer and 3inch exhaust combo.

Or you can PM me (crosssport) if interested in finding out more.
Hope this puts a few minds at ease as to the ongoing and ongoing debate.
