    Tacoma Tuning, LLC is based in Suffolk, VA but here are a few new owners getting KDMAX Pro v10 on treks in the Lynchburg/Charlottesville area.

    Thanks for trusting in my services Austin with his 2010 4Runner, Mike with his 285 setup Tacoma, and Matthew with his 2016 TRD Offroad setup. Enjoy the tunes!!

    No matter the build, KDMAX Pro is here with the most updated Tacoma tune possible while others just watch us roll on! If you are looking for remote tuning options I can offer full remote bundles and even help you get setup to flash your truck to stock or to future released tunes (no matter the source). I am a 2016 and now 2010 owner I picked up just for refining our tune offering for the 2006+ trucks.

    If you are interested in finding a local resource in your state, interested in a tune across VA, or want to know more about our remote tuning options please let me know. I'd be happy to talk with you in detail on the options.

    Absolutely, and perhaps they will chime in here but the goals of tuning where always around improved drivability. As you may know the 2nd gen 4.0L are already very well mannered. Experiences from v9 to v10 result in smoother throttle and further refined shift behaviors but it's not the same leap from stock to v9. If you are happy with how v9 is performing for you I would say it's a minor tweak that is welcomed but not needed.

    Keep in mind that tunes are improved based on owner feedback, platform improvements, and on-going testing.....so let us know what's working well for you and what could be better. Your feedback might help shape the continued evolution of what we can offer!

    Thanks. It's been good over all. I kind of wish the surge at 25mph was not as aggressive. Is that something that can be smoothed out?

    I wanted to post the feedback from an owner who just completed the Blackhawk tune and trial period with his GX470. His truck runs the 4.7 V8 the powertrain and Doug Thorley setup. Here's his review from my Google page and some great pics of his setup!

    The more folks I upgrade the better the responses are getting...here's my recent customer upgrading his MT setup. Hats off to YotaWerx Tuning!

    Remote tunes are happening all across the US anytime an owner is in need of a local resource but there just isn't one. Get an outcome just as good as in-person with benefits like getting the calibration applied on your schedule right in your own driveway and allowing you to try out the adjustments for a few days, not just a quick test drive. Here's what Ryan said about his tuning experience:

    Chris has been incredibly helpful. Even as other modifications or issues have come up with my truck, he has taken the time to help assess or make any adjustments. I highly recommend his services. Also, the tune has been amazing. Toyota OEM shift tuning is terrible. The truck rides so much smoother now.
