Tacoma - OVTUNE - VFTUNER - Update Info and Original Development

Woohoo!!!!! Looking forward to my first free few hours to flash and enjoy.

 

Time for me to start the Taco shopping process!

 

God I hope this pops tomorrow.
Not to sound cliche, but I've got a long trip Saturday lol

 

Thanks Mat, now you didn't take any time for Xmas so now take some time to enjoy the new years long weekend ahead. Looking forward to the handheld and reviews. We all appreciate all the time you're dedicated to our trucks.

 

I have a legit copy of win 8.1 pro key will that work?

 

Im Jealous now lol.. i have to wait till tax season so i can buy this ovtune!

 

Gonna be sold out by then hahaha

 

Hahaha.. lol dont be like that.

 

I wonder if all of the work that went into 1.05 was actually necessary to get boost working properly. I'm surprised that Magnuson hasn't released a super charger for the 3rd Gen Tacoma.

 

Yeah transmission needed to be fixed first. Once the turbos are installed this next time I don't think there is any turning around so that was the importance of fixing this 100%. Nobody else has cracked the code to tune it. I believe Magnuson has been bugging Mat to tune their product.

 

Soon became shortly. Now shortly has become imminent

 

Magnuson spoke with us once about it. Then they asked our assistance on the new tundra. I asked about the tacoma and never heard back.
I *suspect* once alientech releases their handhelds they might do something.

And of course there will be another competitor in this market when alientech releases their handhelds. You guys will see. Interesting fellow.

 

Will this be released via Flash manager? should i be checking the first post for a link?

 

I suspect via the first page which should have the link for the flash manager etc...

 

He said he was going to release it on the blog on his website before. OVTuned.com

 

Very nice, thank you. Must have missed that. I usually just read his replys as this thread can get sidwas VERY fast.

 

do i still need to submit a request for 1.05 grear lock with ect+S mode

 

He supposed to release a new version of flash manager that makes getting files easier

 

S mode without gear lock does amazing well, once you shift out of 4th. My traction control could not keep up with it in first gear 30mph around a very wide open right hander. Tire smoke and body roll!!!! No sway bar. The mustang gt500 across from me was staring like a deer in the headlights. OVTune

 

I put about 200 highway miles on 1.05 today from SLC to Moab averaging 17.2mpg. Overall it used 1 gear higher than 1.04 and held 6th and 5th much better than before. I have 33 tires 4.88 gears and full steel armor.

I did about 30 miles in 4hi and 4 miles in 4lo as well.. in most situations the truck just felt right.

It did have the issue with holding 4th to about 65 mph while merging and then I had to shift to s to get it to go to 5th. Looking forward to the next revision but all in all I'm very happy!
