    There is no sample tune

    if you want 2.0 you need the tune pack

    there’s quite a few threads on modifying tunes

    bootcamp is simple. Just run the wizard and follow directions. I’ve been using it for 3+ years

    There was a 2.0 example tune that @OVTune posted a couple months ago. I think it was 04B04? It was said to not flash it, but learn from it?

    That’s what I thought I read before that there was a sample tune, and that it could actually be flash and tweak

    Tweaked before flashing. OVT said not to run it, just learn from it.

    Hello,

    Can I use a classic OBD to tune my taco ? So I just need the tune pack and VFtuner license. (no need to wait for the cables to ship)
    Or is it a proprietary cable and plug ?

    Thanks

    The cables are not proprietary. But, the genuine Tactrix is the least expensive one that has been proven reliable.

    I paid a deposit to Delicious Tuning in Vista CA about 2-3 months ago for an OVTune on my 2016. The last I heard was that they were checking with Matt to see if the software is ready.
    Any ideas from ovtuned.com how I should proceed ?

    Should request for the deposit back and go with @TWTaco and @PapaRee tuning service instead.
    He is in Orange County, with no wait, you can get tuned and ready to go the moment you get there.
