    So. Many. Stickers.
    Waaayyy less bogging down. More even power response. And more usable power. Usable 2nd gear. Etc

    On the 6MT it is beyond worth it

    So I'm an idiot apparently haha. I didn't buy the tune pack. I bought the software with cable. I could've sworn I read that was all I needed to access the tunes as it comes with credits but those are to unlock your ECU I guess and I need to purchase a tune pack in order to receive the OV tunes. I did not realize this and do not currently have the additional $400 so looks like I'll be waiting a bit longer.

    So I have been running "sid_04A70_2.0_Prem_SuperFOB.p5f" on my taco, installed with Toyota Flash Manager. Looks like there may have been some updates with vF Tuner. Is it worth it to put new tunes on, with and without updating ECU (I'm still on 04A70, can't seem to get TS to work). If it's worth it, can someone please point me to some concise instructions on what I need to do

    What is this 2.0 ultimate tune you guys are talking about? Is it a better version of SFOB or something? Thanks.

    When do you clear DTC and TCU or reset your ECU
