    I may of been a little lost from the thread. What is the difference with A,B and C? Does that mean C is more aggressive? I don't quite understand.

    Oops, I wasn't actually complaining about this release.. Just commenting on talk of moving on to a datalogger by a member - while a M/T tune is not available. I know it's coming, but let's not get ahead of ourselves!

    Mat described it as

    A: All shift points altered and more aggressive than stock
    B: All shift points altered but 5-6 closer to stock, so more inclined to upshift to 6th earlier. Highway cruising/mileage I assume.
    C: All shift points altered but 1-2 and 5-6 closer to stock. Probably best for stop and go highway driving where you don't want it dipping down into first as often.

    Thanks for clarifying. I didn't really see it on the edited first post and couldn't read the whole thread.

    Thanks!

    He seems to hate the TRD PRO trucks and is quiet outspoken when it comes to them.
    Honestly a lot of wasted energy but more power to him.
    Since the mods are tired of seeing his negative comments they probably banned him.

    Yea, knew he did something and was just making a statement, Again!!! They have their reasons and not my business. Was just watching for his reviews on this tune. Thanks

    I have got several inquiries from various MT owners and should have it locked down this week.

    Also I will update the first post asap.

    All new kits will be shipping now with 1.02C standard.
    I am confident that 1.02C will be our Final Cal version for the time being.

    Initial 1.02C A 91 tune impressions are outstanding! I didnt get to hit any hills or highway speeds, but so far, its smooth and responsive. Going to be putting some miles on it through the weekend including loading up the bedrack and rtt, and seeing what it feels like almost fully loaded.

    Nice work @OVTune!!!

    Is anyone running Virtualbox with a Mac to flash the tune? I have been using a PC for the process but my wife currently has the PC 200 miles away. I have downloaded Virtualbox and Windows 10, and it is running PCM flash with the Tactrix but it does not see the Guardant key. Virtualbox sees it but PCM flash is showing the "no dongle" note in the little window. All drivers are installed. I have the USB settings set for USB 1.0 in the VB settings. Any ideas?

    Might need to d/l the "service pack" in Windows. Or, try re-detecting it in the "ports" settings tab while in the VB/Mac side.

    I finally got it to work. VB/W10-PCM flash is running and it sees both USB devices. Now I am having trouble getting the files to download from the email. Stand by...

    That clears it up for me as well. Before, I thought A was the most conservative so that's what I flashed.

    1.02C Shift A 87 Octane still awesome at just over 100 miles now. Never noticed a drop in mpg, and it's has seemed to have increased about 1-2 mpg from 1.02B.
