    I had the pleasure of working with GearOne Performance in West Chester, Pa to test out the new ecu/trans tune they put out for our trucks. They installed my lift/tires a year ago and since then I have been wishing my truck had a little more low end power, and would actually stay in 6th gear on the highway! Well this tune has been a great help towards both of those issues we all deal with. You can see on the dyno graph below the truck got a decent bump in power, and it comes on much sooner. Driving around town is SO much nicer having that extra torque down low. The driving manners on the highway are also night and day. No more downshifting into 4th for no apparent reason, and it will actually stay in 5th/6th instead of constantly trying to find a comfort zone. I haven't had the chance to calculate it, but I'm assuming this will help me out in the mpg area with all the highway driving i do.

    On top of the tune being awesome, they are a great shop to deal with. They have done all the work on my Tacoma and also a few things on my C5 Corvette. Check them out on facebook/instagram and you can see they are quite a bit more than your average local shop, I'm pretty lucky to be right around the corner from these guys.

    I don't think they have the tune listed on their website, but shoot them a FB message or email and I'm sure they can give you all the details! https://www.instagram.com/gearoneperformance/?hl=en

    Seems too good to be true from an N/A truck to pick up 27hp from just a tune.

    27 whp is not too bad of a stretch with DI motors.

    What was the price for their dyno tune 400-500?
