    I hope I'm not asking too much but can gear lock be enable on S+ECT only? I drive mostly on ECT and would still love to have an option to downshift when pressing down the pedal...

    Read back a couple of pages, I believe Mat (OVTune) explained that question.

    I think @sig916 is asking if ECT could be used in D mode without turning on gear lock. Maybe modify the tune to only have gear lock in S?

    I've heard of some that die after a year or two. Before my last trip offroading, I put a new sealed battery in. Didn't want to take the chance of it shitting the bed miles from the nearest paved road. Plus, the water leaks out of the top of the stock battery.

    hell no! "87 Octane Performance version does not add power except for higher RPM." with this you get a more offensive accelerator pedal characteristic
    and different shift points, but not more torque

    Interesting how people ask for one-off versions of the tune tailored specifically for there driving habits. OVtune is not a mix and match all you can eat buffet.

    More interesting is how people ask for something, mat delivers, then people change their mind and want something else after being given exactly what they asked for.

    Most want 0-60 in 2 seconds and the ability to pull a 12000 pound trailer up the mountains and still get 18 mpg. Then get pissed when Mat can't seem to squeeze that out of the little 3.5 V-6...Oh, I can't forget that all of this should be accomplished with a fully up armored Taco with 35" tires and a terrible Bro lean.

    I just submitted a zendesk trouble request so mat can fix my taco lean. I hope he could get that update released.

    Where are the 93 octane dyno numbers? There are only dyno results for the 87 octane tunes on the first page of this thread. Nor do I see it on the OVTune site.

    I think you guys may be confused.
    Dyno jet numbers are tested on 93 octane
    Dyno dynamics numbers tested on 91 octane
    Other dyno dynamics numbers ( with air control valve tuning) is 87 octane

    I should have clarified "There are no dyno numbers for the 91 or 93 octane performance tunes." Is that correct Mat?

    So the Dynos on the first post are for 93 / 87 performance?

    I also see the one for 87 perf but it looks very similar to 93 which is what I am confused about.

    Might be a good idea to label each pic so we know for sure, I do see the 93 octane Dynojet one you are referring to though.

    Anyone running there OV Tune with a Sprint Booster? I have both if you have the Sprint Booster on even at setting 3 green tapping the pedal knocks you back in the seat. It's crazy I wonder if this is cause for concern using a Sprint Booster with the tune.

    @OVTune is there a way you guys can put the tuned 87 base on ect button.

    I like driving the 87 perf but 1 or 2 times a month I do some off road driving. Instead of having to flash and carry my laptop everywhere. I was wondering if this can be implemented. I dont need ect mode with the 87 perf tune so now the ect button is useless to me.
