Tacoma - OVTUNE - VFTUNER - Update Info and Original Development

that is true, and speaking for myself:
rear sway bar
265/65-17 E range tires, the hardest and least compliant you can find for this truck
MT/4.3's
and me behind the wheel.
and NO LOAD.

try to start from a stop on a wet road in my truck. go ahead...

 

I'm about 2.5 hours away from Nola....... haha

 

Drove 132 miles today after work with 122 miles being on the highway with the speed limit 70-75 majority of the time. When needed, the truck downshifts to 5th versus shifting to 4th. The truck also accelerates in 5th/6th gear without wanting to drop gears every single time.

Truck is also responsive to how much pressure is applied to the accelerator. Light pressure and it will accelerate, more pressure and it will shift down to 5th, if you stomp on the accelerator it will go from 6th to 4th. I still believe this area requires fine tuning as much of an improvement over stock. Being able to hold gears just a tad bit longer before downshifting would make this 100% for me.

No issue with throttle sensitivity. Users will larger tires and armor will appreciate this.

22.6mpg on this trip with 265/70/17 and Leer bed cap.

 

how does that compare to before?

 

Last week we had alot of wind here in Texas. Was averaging 15-17mpg which is not a fair comparison.

 

This sounds perfect for me. Im running 275/70/17 that edginess will be smoothness for me

 

F*ck it, I’m in!

 

It’s better. But still not a how a damn truck should drive.

A truck should not downshift because it hit the wind from another vehicle.

A truck shouldn’t downshift because it’s raining and there are puddles on the road.

Maybe since it’s 2018 this is the new hotness. I’m not sure

1.03 is much much better. But it still doesn’t make me want to keep my truck.

Hmmmmmmm



Let’s go!

 

Out of curiosity, what truck did you have before third gen? I had a 1989 chev c1500

 

can't go into any details right now, but OVTune and 1.03 owners will be very happy soon with some upcoming stuff. (not a new tune or update)

 

Im excited and i dont even know what it is

 

You for real, or just blowing smoke?
I may be forced to upgrade.

 

I have a feeling its either twin turbo involved or the pre orders came in... or he finally cammed his taco

 

First time out on the highway today since installing 1.03 Saturday. Truck drove much better and 1st time I've seen trip meter show 20 mpg since the bigger tires went on. Loving this updated tune!

 

none of the above and better than all 3.

you guys will know soon.

 

Big Tease is back

 

He's finally gone dongeless.

 

Finally going to be working with magnuson/toyota to tune magnusons new supercharger

 

Its better then a twin turbo.... must be ls swap haha

 

it's good news but no hype train.


in other news the new and final version of flash manager will be up soon. This will be final version for a while until some more features that are being worked on are implemented.
