    Welcome to the next evolution in tuning options with MCBAutotech's brand new "Elite Performance" calibrations! We have been looking to level-up the services without the hype or the cost and partnering with the new Elite Performance providers was the clear answer.

    Chris I'm getting closer to ditching my Blackhawk tune not that there is any issues, but because Yotawerks treatment of customers. I have had every tune you have offered and every new tune you release is always better than the previous. Your customer relations is what I going after in the long run plus your my Friend and I will support you! Can't wait to experience another great tune. Good bye Yotawerks!

    Thank you Chris aka Whahoobie the tune feels really nice so far as like all the tunes I have had over the years but more refined. I noticed the lower end power is smoother, and the shifts are pretty smooth as well. Now the downshifting is by far the best I ever felt on any tune and the holding of gears is more refined feeling than the Blackhawk and the KD max tune. The Blackhawk tune was great for some lower end power and torque as well, but the hard downshifting was not for me. I think I preferred the KD tune more and was seriously thinking of going back to it. This tune is the most stock like driving feeling tune I have ever had giving I only have about 100 miles on it. The smoothness is like factory with the best pedal feel of any tune and the holding of gears is perfect without the not so much in your face as other tunes I have felt. This tune feels so refined but with the power on tap when needed. I just like it so far for an all over smoothness and no slight jumping or throttle lunging on cold startups. This is the sweet spot of all tunes and I think the truck doesn't run as rich as the other tunes as I noticed less to none of black exhaust residue on the tailpipe so far. By the dyno graph shown for the tune just supports the smoothness and power that I feel. Will give you a 500 mile update but may take a few months. Never been on an OTT tune but for the other tunes I have been on this is the best so far for my style of driving and exactly what I wanted in terms of power and torque, drivability, holding of gears, downshifting smoothness, pedal feel and just an overall stock like feel but with all the benefits is the best way to describe it.

    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.


    Thanks for your trust and for allowing me to provide the latest and greatest Elite calibrations on the market from https://www.mcbautotech.com/
