    IIRC the SM diagrams correctly, the data from the wheel sensors comes through the skid control ECU and then on to the cluster... THEN it gets passed to the ECM.

    I am very pleased with 2.0. Im running SFOB Premium and have about 150 miles on it. Getting around 18.5-19.5 MPGs on 285s in the up and down terrain of WV. I LOVE MY TRUCK AGAIN!

    Yeah I've been a little light on the skinny pedal but I was running 1.05 93 FOB previously and I was around 16.5 mpg so this has been a really good thing for me lol

    Yeah thats about exactly where i was on that file, it really seems like it takes less input to keep the truck rolling. This mornings commute i think i averaged 17.9, what kills it is climbing a 1.5 mile hill right before i get to work. But!! for the first time ever, i pulled that hill in forth and actually held rpm instead of having to hit third halfway up. Puts a smile on my mug just typing it out haha.

    You should climb the hill at 7000 rpm for funsies. Hit it a couple times yesterday and it’s pretty crazy

    Hahaha, the people that live on the right side of that hill already probably hate me. That carven muffler i bought for this truck sounds aggressive as hell lol. This tune also created this little downrev burble if i just blip the throttle now and its damn amazing......the little things haha. I know i hit about 7k saturday night while making a hemi durango fight for its life to try and pass me and its a unique sound...to say the least.

    Got DP tuned, had some runability issues before that i solved when i discovered the intake tube had rolled an edge off at the TB.
    After that fixed, and 2.0 Premium SuperFOBDump installed.......idle learn went great, and a little 5 mile test drive.
    DP has never gotten up like that in first, ever. And it's on 35's now.....

    Did you reset learned values? You’d want to after correcting a vacuum leak like that

    Speaking of, has anyone had issues using Tonoreds version and allowing it internet connection? I only get 30 uses without, but i’m hesitant for it to hook up to Toyota’s servers

    Mine shows thousands of days and no number limit. I did have that happen on an installation of V12 though.

    But yeah. Don't connect. Just uninstall / reinstall. It will at least give you 30 more uses.

    I have never specifically denied any of my installations internet connection. Once it's activated I don't get an error. YMMV

    How responsive would yall say your throttle is to input? mine does not react within the first quarter to half(probably not a half) inch of pressing the pedal. I am on SFOB tune with 87 octane. i had it on 93 SFOB with 87 octane. i know it learns octane and i only had 30 miles on the 93 SFOB. i did reset LV between flashes.

    Mine felt extremely direct on the first drive. It was a bit squirrly due to the adaptation, but definitely no lag. It was snappy for sure.
