    A while back he got the Camry tune and tried it on the Tacoma when he had access to a dyno. He said it seemed the Tacoma numbers that were published seemed to be a little low and the Camry numbers seemed to be a little high because there was almost no difference. In reality they arent really all that far apart in actual power even though they may appear so according to Toyota. The Camry is also making the power higher in the RPM band. You can easily have pretty significant variations in dyno numbers based on the conditions.

    The throttle response might be better in the Camry but I’m going to drive a Tacoma different than a Camry. I had mine complaints about it stock but I’m not sure what more you could want over 1.04. I’d rather have it a bit less responsive for off road driving or poor weather conditions than more responsive and hard to drive in less than ideal conditions. He’s also said thats something that he can adjust easily with the custom tuning (which happens when he gets back)

    There’s a review thread you can check out. The tune is great and totally worth the cost.

    Even Matt doesn't expect any advantage by eliminating Atkinson and as far a timeline between now and next year.

    C'mon man, we know you think it's a waste of time. Why not try it for shits and giggles if time permits? Again, it's just a little side project, because quite a few ppl are curious.

    A lot of things have come to light with this tune when Mat tries shit.
