    It's hard to say how warm it gets. The seal is 2017 so I got a few years on it. Probably just lube everything up and make sure my vent is clean. Funny how we were just talking about this.

    I was just thinking that! As far as I know, I've got an original seal in the back of my 06 trans, and I've had the driveshaft in and out a couple times. Wonder how long until mine leaks

    I'm constantly in the sand/dirt. Rough roads. Everything dies pretty quick. I change out the center bearing probably every other year.

    I think it was getting jealous of my Ford oil leak. But yeah for a 24yr old truck leaks are pretty rare.

    Figured a few of you guys might like to know that 2nd Gen 2.7L 2TR support (most calibrations anyway) have been recently added to VFTuner's software.

    There's some things that need added to support the things this crowd is up too, but I'll work with Mat to see if those things can be added to help buffer the need to go full standalone.

    Is it in the most recent release available on the website? Just looking through the supported calibrations to see if I see mine (2013 5sp 4WD) which I believe is 30484000

    Appears that is not yet a supported calibration. I’ll submit it for support.

    OTT cannot defeat emission equipment. We get a lot of requests for these things but the cost of the tune isn't worth the EPA fine's that come associated with them. Sorry!

    As a follow up, I have sent your screenshot to VFTuner to see if they'll add that particular cal to their library.

    :spy: new to the thread. I'm jumping into this fairly blind since I've never even been in a boosted vehicle but it looks like I'll be picking up a turbo kit and possibly asking some questions along the way but for now I'll go back to reading and learning:spy:
