2016 OVTune Tacoma 3.5L Manual Transmission / Engine ECU Reflash

We’re going to have a “me too” moment if the tune guy keeps getting harassed about his outfit

 

When heel-toeing into second gear my truck always flashes an error saying something along the lines of 'you can't simultaneously press brake and accelerator' and it won't rev the engine. Does this tune disable that "safety feature?" It's extremely annoying and the rear wheels squawk because you can't match the revs.

 

No.

 

You know you don't actually need to hit the brake to rev match, right? Or just brake before the turn, then clutch in and rev match/clutch out and give her the beans on the second half of said turn.

 

Correct.

 

How do people have so much issue with rev matching? I have my complaints about the motor but some of you guys I have no idea what the hell you are trying to do

 

I love fob in 4LO, first gear is insane.

 

Who needs crawl control when you have 4lo FOB with ATRAC??

 

I can only use it if I'm on something really steep, otherwise it's just too much! End up using 3rd a lot to get going with the tune.

 

I understand that, but then the truck is free wheeling. If I rev match while braking, its much more efficient and you control the weight transfer better while starting the turn.

 

And, whew! You're digging it?

 

Sounds like you need a Subaru, mate.

It's freewheeling only for as long as it takes you to shift.

 

Go drive out west, the truck is free wheeling even in gear lol shift before the corner. Then you can power through it

 

OK somebody educate me...what is FOB?

 

The MT performance tune

 

OK thanks...I haven't been keeping up on this thread...way too broke to keep tempting myself.

 

I hear you.

Just a note that @OVTune accepts PayPal. I bought mine using the 6mo same as cash offer on PayPal.

 

Woth the 87 FOB tune does it get completely rid of the crappy start from a dead start?

 

In general, all of the tunes improve the "falling on it's face" from a stop. This was one of my biggest issues with the stock tune. I can't describe how much better it is with the tune.
