    2019 MT Sport will be a good test. My truck just feels a bit underpowered and lacks torque. Maybe does rev super freely above 3500 rpm but I only have 1200 miles. Not a bunch of flat spots or tip ins or bogging. I am guessing Toyota got it a bit better on the tune.

    I can tell you for a fact that Toyota made a number of driveability improvements in their M/T calibrations.

    04B13 (16-17) was a massive improvement over the garbage they initially released on the early 16's (04B10).

    Having run the 04B41 '19 OEM tune on my new truck, I can say it's almost identical to 04B13, perhaps a bit better. It still lacks low end, throttle response, and some midrange power on the highway.

    1.05 FOB 87 is a very noticeable improvement, especially in low end grunt and throttle response. I can be in 6th at 1200 on back roads, no problem maintaining speed and accelerating normally. If I get slowed down or need faster acceleration, I just flick it up into 3rd and go.

    This would be a nice weekend beta surprise for the 04B13/04A71 folks :)

    Good morning @OVTune

    I get what you desire, but the current Beta is hardly settled in yet. And, we also don't know the full details about it. I think it was a couple weeks after the first 2.0 Beta that we found out that it was a stripped down version of 2.0, which I know surprised me as I guessed there was a lot more in the tune due to the big difference in feel.

    Just my opinion, and me fighting with myself over vehicle choices. No rain yesterday and today for the commute, so it was a struggle to ride when the Taco is running so well.

    Nope,hopefully he is delivering the dump tubes to UPS. He really needs to set up an account with them so they can pick up outgoing at his shop,it would save him a lot of time...

    ETA there he is,he posted as I was typing lol...

    Very good.
    Most are holding off for a full tank of gas or more and letting Mat know first before posting here. But, its damn good
