    I believe ovtuned made our engine stronger than the camery stock. Dont forget this was power at the wheel and on a larger heavier tire. And yeah I wish for more torque too.

    I’d try restarting computer first. If that doesn’t work, I’d try flashing to stock then trying.

    Have you connected to the truck in Techstream? I don't think you need to in order to run the CUW, but it would rule out if you are actually connecting to the truck.

    Whichever one is applicable to your truck. It checks compatibility before flashing. I think 34 for is for the older trucks if I remember right. I just clicked on them til one went cuz I was too lazy to look up the right one and had them all downloaded.

    I’m looking for performance modifications to get more power to the ground. Considering all options. But, I want a 3.5 l 2GR-FKS that runs right. If the engine is misfiring it’s not putting power to the ground. Dumping fuel to cool the catalytic converter doesn’t sound right either. Can probably fix this problem with an exhaust system upgrade. I like the TRD options. There are a couple of exhaust upgrades but not sure which one will give me more horsepower and eliminate overheating the cat. Are these issues resolved in the 2019?

    Tried just reading ecu I'd and get this. Could it be the radio. Like I said maestro is connected to obd connector but just pulled out and plugged tactrix.

    34-18 should take you from 04b03 to 04b04, 36-18 is for a different ECU I believe

    That's bullshit, I hate buyers remorse! I've had it before but I made the decision to pull the trigger.
    Well Mat, you can't buy my tune back for twice what I paid for it.
    Thanks for the product, I couldn't imagine my truck without it.

    Zell, debit cards and checking account ach transfers cannot be charged back. And all of these options have no fees to the buyer or the seller.
    I am just glad I got mine and couldn't pry it away from me!
    I tell this, the first time chase held my payroll check I closed my account and went elsewhere. If it were me and this charge back reared it head in my business I close that account and only take forms of payment that cannot be charged back.
