Alabama thread!

Ah, I had to type it out.

 

your truck is a lemon

 

You Misspelled tank

 

big mike got like 17-18 mpg in his 3rd gen on 40s

 

maybe it’s just because it’s orange

 

I bet his truck dosnt weigh 6000lbs lol. Plus i have that performance tune that dosnt help with fuel economy at all lol.

 

Its inferno and it got 23mpg before. Got 18 on 33's

 

maybe your truck needs to do more cardio

 

So got a question for all. I got two tunes from VR Tuned that I download to MyGenuis data writer to install on my truck. They sent me the performance tune and the eco tune. I am concerned about having a copy of my original ECU tune for the truck. Here is their responses to me. I know what they say but does this make sense and explain it to me please.


Blake,
So it will be automatically downloaded to the MyGenius device when I write one of the tunes to my ECU?

Hey John,
After you write one of the tuned files, your original / stock file will display in this same location labeled "Original".
Thanks!

Question: Where would my original ECU file be if I needed to go back to the original software?
Thanks,
John

Hey John!
Thank you for your patience on this, we have your tuned files ready and attached in this email. Please load both files to the MyGenius device, once plugged in the the vehicle the files will display as " VR Tuned - Stage 1 Performance" and "VR Tuned - ECO". Please let me know if you have any questions, we will be here to help. Thanks again!

 

Any AL 1st gen trucks with ARB front bumper? I'd like to look at one in person.

 

Those cheap red ones I have never seen them work. I made me one that works very well.

 

The black ones work flawlessly. They also have a slot for a half inch archer to fit in there to get more leverage

 

I made me some out of these

 

That's what I used to do mine.

 

I filed the edge down on mine so the don't cut them

 

Me and it both do

 

I dont know anything about the VR tune. But on mine when i set up the truck to the lap top it saved the stock ecu file. Im not sure how to get to it but id assume its a file on my tune software now.

 

I dont believe anyone has an arb. @JBTacoma 1st gen bumper is pretty sweet tho.

 

It is cool, but you can’t buy them anymore unfortunately. Seems like they sell instantly when one pops up on the used market

 

Thanks. I agree that Jeff's bumper is super nice. I actually recently installed a 4xInnovations that came out pretty nice but still curious about the ARB.
