    Decent, I’d be comfortable with that VS engine removal. Glad there is another way in case I ever have to deal with the issue. Sorry for off topic posts other, users.
    Wonderful! Can’t wait to try this hopefully soon. Will this also help the throttle limitations when turning perhaps? New to this level of customization but not afraid to mess with stuff :D

    I feel that this is part of the taction and stability control.

    I have a turn going into my home. If i have traction on and try to gun it while turning, the truck will not do it. However, if i long press the traction button and turn that off then i can spin the tires around the corner. (Slightly)

    That being said, first gear still limits but Matt has found the first gear limit and is adding it to vf.

    What a strange place for an airflow dip, at high load conditions. What could possibly have been toyota’s rationale?

    I know this is a day late and a dollar short but I had the exact same leak and had it fixed a couple months ago, under warranty thank God. Yes it's almost a total tear down (they even took apart the steering because it was pulling bad to the left and I had to take it back to get it realigned) but I did NOT flash back to stock. Never have and never a mention of it in all the times this turd has been in the shop. Like Mat says it's undetectable.

    /Patiently waiting for that new 1.05 Performance tune of yours :D

    Page 201 post #4005 has the zip file. It still has room for improvement, but it's close.

    Thanks for the re-flash input too. Hopefully I'm not without the truck for too long. Today is just to diagnose the issue. I'm an hour and a half from the nearest dealer.

    Did I do it right? I'm really not forum savvy.

    I'm going to admit this stuff is a little over my pay grade but I'm wondering why there is such a dip in this table? I would think it would be more of a gradual ramp. Would there be any benefit to smoothing it out? Also what does the raw vehical speed equate to in MPH?@OVTune?

    My pleasure. The dealer had mine for 3 full days + and gave me a rental. That included the recall for the frame rust proof but the majority was tearing the engine down and putting it back together. After a realignment and fixing a rattle (they left one bolt out of the skid plate which meant me driving back to pick up a bolt and put it in myself, luckily it's close to work) all was good lol. After it's done I suggest to take it for a local drive before you drive it all the way back home.

    If I make a change on the 2D table will that show up on the 3D table if I open it afterwards?

    Thanks @Mooseditty17 - I can give it a shot later today, was it the same table as your first round or have you expanded? I'd rather place your edits in my tune like before.

    So I'm thinking as I'm driving to the Toyota dealership.... I have 33-in tires but my truck thinks I have factory tires because I've never recalibrated my speedometer. Would I benefit from tuning for a stock tire size as opposed to the 33 tune? Do the shift points really change that much?? Anyone with experience running the different tire size tunes?

    IMG_20200910_130019691_HDR.jpg first time I've been on the interstate since the new tune. I am thoroughly impressed with how much the shift points have improved! My mileage used suffer on the interstate because the truck refused to use sixth gear.
    Now she hums right along...
    Excellent work @OVTune

    On this example:
    @ 2.79% throttle it's allowing the throttle to open 1%?
    @ 5.5% throttle it's allowing the throttle to open 1.19%
    @8.29 - 1.79 % and so on?

    What kind of craziness would a guy get if he matched the numbers entered to the values at the top?

    Should each gear map go up equally as the one prior? If I increase the values on 1st gear by 10% across the board, should the same be done for 2nd through 6th to maintain a smooth transition through the gears?

    @OVTune Would there be any pros/cons to eliminating all the dips/humps and not just the ones in the 800-2000 range?
