    Carista and OBD Fusion are phone apps that use a BT or WiFi OBD adapter. Check your app store.

    TechStream is linked in my signature below. You use your OVT Tactrix adapter.

    Also, the OVT Identify function in FlashManager will tell you.

    When i first flashed 1.05 the initial feel of the truck was great, but now it almost feels like it has learned back to stock. Will 2.0 learn back to stock?

    The ECU cannot learn back to stock. Likely you got used to it, flash back to actual stock and compare

    Best most concise reply yet. I was wondering what this "reversion" (my word!) is all about. MINE (2019 Sport 1.05 FOB, 91) is not doing this.

    Thank you!

    Thos is what I am feeling too. It's certainly not as peppy as it was when I first flashed.

    Multiple things happen.
    Ignition trimming learns
    Airflow for throttle learns
    And multiple other tables that come into effect depending upon conditions (mainly temperature) that ultimately affect things like torque request, throttle, etc.

    2.0 actually unifies many of these conditional tables, so does the 2.0 betas that are currently available.

    In addition to being able to use the handheld to give the tune a shot. kinda sucks having something that can't be used.

    We can change a majority of things, except for 1 major component to throttle, it's a 4D global control. We can only make it "less" not "more" and when less, it's terrible

    It's being worked on as fast as possible by OFT, however if you'd rather not wait I can swap you out for a flash kit immediately.
