New VFtune install

Correct me if I'm wrong but in looking at the 2.0 auto final release files you choose by ECU, tire size, fuel type, and gear ratio. Wouldn't this mean you would need to re-flash once you change fuel? And it appears there are no 'base' or 'performance' options any longer, simply the final tune...

Of course you can edit if you choose.

Just use bootcamp. That’s what I did for both TS and the tuning software

 

Thanks, that clears it up.

 

Happy to help.

 

Exact same thing with my original OVT tune last year. Nice thread. I bailed from all the other tune threads. Not because they are bad or anything, just I have been so happy with 2.0FOB, 92, that I didn't see the need. I need someone to poke me when there is something better!

 

And you can download a copy of Windows 10 and just not register it for free. You won’t get all the latest updates but I think they do provide security updates. I downloaded a copy to run in a VM for something not truck related and never had to register it. You get nags every once in a while to register but it still works. Would think you could do the same for boot camp.

 

Not getting the updates is more of a perk. Then you dont need that fun new update that breaks every..

Thats exactly what i did with boot camp. Not activated and i disabled updates and AV in the registry.

 

Wondering if anyone can clear something up for me... can seem to get a clear answer!
Do I need tuner software +flash cable and tune pack? I don’t want to tune my own truck! Just want to download a map! Or can just get the tuner +flash? Any help would great!

 

You will need all three man. It is a bit expensive but worth it. I mean really worth it.

 

Oh!! Ok, thanks man!! Thanks for ur help!! Such appreciate!

 

Might just have the dealer flash update on AT for me while I go in for service this weekend and then it’s time for VF!

 

I'd like to thank @wrightme43 and @tonered for this thread which includes invaluable VF Tune information for our TW community. You guys are awesome!

 

You're welcome!

 

Thank you, but really Tonered helped me. I just tried to put it in one place as I did it.

 

Where do you download the techstream and do I need to have my software license # first to use it for updating the ecu

 

Tonered or Ruggybuggy have links or instructions in their signature. You can use Techstream if you follow the instructions without paying a license fee as a demo.

 

Thanks I'm not very good with the computer stuff and it's hard finding the info on autos

 

To update your ECU for the TSB, you just need TS, the Tactrix / OVT adapter, and the software from the TSB (CUW file).
