KDMax-Pro Tuning--NOW YotaWerx Tuning

Contact Allan @xXgOdLyXjEwXx

 

Done. Thanks

 

Is the fix specific to your tune or does every KDM6 need this tweak? I haven’t seen what you describe on mine. Yet?

 

No, everyone does not need it.
We have seen a few trucks (2021) about 1 out of 100 need a custom torque map change.
If it ain't broke don't fix it.

 

Yo St. Louis! Teaming up with @VangaSTL for a little tune and brew event!

 

I have a Tacoma built 5/21 and 04c21 tcu. If anyone in the la area can help out and grab it and sent it to vf I’ll volunteer my truck. Obviously once there’s support for my truck I’d come back to you guys for the KD max tune

 

I'm in LA area. DM me when you're free and we'll take care of this

 

Two days! only a few spots left! DM to claim yours.

 

Monthly check in to see if there is any progress on FI tuning? Just curious

 

Just waiting on Ovtune for the FI tuning guide.

 

Also San Diego just announced!

 

FAQ done

 

Looking for tune in SoCal Area. PM me price and availability. Thank you.

 

Sending you a messhe

 

Shout out to @Phich (Chris) for tuning my truck!

I’ve only put 200 miles so far and I can tell that the drivability is much better. The throttle response is smooth as well as the shifting. I’m waiting to load my truck with all three dirt bikes and see how it drives but with my initial experience, I’m certain that it will not be sluggish as it once was.

Lastly, because of the throttle response, the truck feels lighter (like it lost some pounds). Just my observation and it was worth the money to get it tuned. I’m glad that I was recommended with this tune over the OV.

2019 DCLB A/T w/ 2” lift and 275/70/17.

 

I have the LT which he recommended.

 

Just got mine done with SLT on a regular stock 33” good lawd! it’s a step up from OVT 2.0

Thank you @dank-donkeh-luvver
Need to add a big Thank You @PapaRee for your contribution to the community

 

Wanted to leave this here as well as Boltrippers thread:

OK guys and gals wanted to come back and give my opinionated thoughts on the KDMAX with SLT tune. My plan was to wait until after I ran another tank through it. But I’m going out of town for another week and feel confident in how it’s currently performing to make a call.

First I want to breakdown the areas I had the most frustration with on my Tacoma. It is Stock with no major mods.

Tip in before, from a stop or accelerating to say the least it was a slug or felt more like a lead sled. For such a small truck why does it feel like your pulling the Grinches loaded down sled .

After tune, wow! I tried LT, John’s Tune, and the SLT (what I eventually went with). John didn’t load Regular based on my feedback not wanting an aggressive tip in. All of them will make you smile . The lead sled feeling is completely gone on take off or where you would let off to slow down and the truck would struggled to re-gain momentum, gone!

Gear hunting before was constant. Any small grades or inclines in the road would produced the 2000 to 3500 rpm dance. And then the truck would hold third/fourth forever after cresting the grades. Cruise was worthless and would require a tap of the gas pedal to disengage 4th gear and nudge it to shift up. I live in South MS so we’re not talking mountains not even big hills, think flatland.

After tune, Smoooooth, predictable and linear best way to describe it. Why Toyota chose not to sell in this configuration is beyond me? @PapaRee I do have a couple areas I would like to see improvements if more goodness could be squeezed out. And these are icing on the already good cake, but in highway driving where the truck had that quick response when you did put your foot in it, it now seems to take more throttle pressure to get up to that same speed. Like in quick lane changes or emergency type passing.

Back road driving before and at speeds below 70 MPH especially anything under 2000 rpms had that bumpidy road/miss firing feeling the one Toyota always said was by design .

After tune mostly gone but at least with mine I’ve narrowed it down to where it still occurs most pronounced. At 1100 rpm I still get this effect and at around 1500 rpm but not as noticeable. It also only occurs after accelerating and backing off throttle and hitting in these ranges. It also immediately dissipate once throttle is applied. Not sure if this one is here to stay or more can be done to eliminate. Again not as it once was, just my 2 cents .

Cruise as mentioned before was worthless in either adaptive or in normal mode. Constant shifting, unnecessary high rpm swings and holding gears to long.

After tune in normal cruise (Adaptive files still the same (locked by Toyota)) is a joy to use . My aching right foot thanks you! It works! On my trip around and back from Birmingham, AL I set it on 70-72 to Hoover (50 miles or so?) and it climbed every grade but one at 2000 rpm. And the one time it shifted down it hit 3000 rpm and leveled off immediately upon cresting hill, not the kick it in gear 3500 rpm, we’ll done @PapaRee

Last but not least before I had no complaints with fuel mileage except for when I did try and use cruise. My mileage has always been good at 19-22 mpg. Even driving 75-80 mph, again flatlands.

After tune my feeling we’re with better all around shifting and smoothness I would likely see a gain or no lost. On my trip back from Birmingham I drove the first 50 miles and averaged 22.4 mpg. My buddy took over in Hoover and drove the next 100 miles surging from 75 to 85 averaging 76-78 mph and drove my average down to 18. 7 mpg . I finished off the last 210 miles or so and that tank averaged out to 19.2 mpg (1st tank after tune). On the second tank now and with 60 miles in I’m at 23 mpg average.



So, am I pleased to have gotten the tune? Yep .

Would I recommend? Yep!

And if your in the Birmingham area John Gobel at Overlandtailor.com (or Boltripper) is the man to see!
