    I've looked back through his posts and couldn't find his comment. I know Toyota did it for EPA reasons. I can't imagine it makes or breaks passing EPA standards though... what did he say? Seems kind of sad to have a motor that makes peak torque above 4K but then has rev hang up there...

    I bought the tune but have been waiting for 1.05 to install it. At this point I'm thinking I should just go though through the process for the current tune.

    It's been a quiet day, but I doubt the same can be said on the A/T side of the house.

    Nope, just a lowly NCO. Kingston is also the home station of the Communications and Electronics branch of the CF. Training base was up the hill from RMC. That campus is a beautiful spot though. Loved Kingston.

    Nothing really to share, I tested stuff that was part of the whole that will be 1.05. I have no idea what a complete version of the new tune drives like. This is pretty typical of the way Mat does things, for good reason. I will say that my truck isn't misbehaving!

    You should go buy a lottery ticket

    Well except apparent someone already won the billion dollars so you are too late. Guess you’ll just have to settle for a working truck lol
