    Hey, I was looking into some different ways to increase performance on my 2016 tacoma and came across the OVTune, however I have no idea what piece to buy to plug into the computer and truck to install it in my truck, or where to go to download the tune in the first place, I tried a few links on this site and they are all not found, anyone know of step by step instruction and possibly a module at a decent price I can buy to do the upgrade? Thanks

    One of those two can comment in quicker than me with links guiding you in the right direction.

    Thanks!

    It looks like @Dank Donkeh Luvver has it covered. The 2.0 OV Tunes are killer, with more to come.

    I've 'tuned out' and haven't been paying attention. I bought the OV tune a few years ago. Does that make it obsolete or can I still do updates? I just tried reading their website but quickly got confused. Talk to me like I'm five years old.

    You can upgrade to vF for cheap. $79 for dongleless / $0 for dongle. Send a message to Zendesk about this.


    If you don't want to upgrade, there will be a new, free app to replace Flash Manager. It is not released yet.

    Send a message to zendesk and you can get updated to the current release. Depending on which kit you have its either $79 or $0 to upgrade.

    There’s also supposed to be a flash manager version coming for people that are not interested in vF tuner

    Edit: @tonered beats me again..
