Tacoma - OVTUNE - VFTUNER - Update Info and Original Development

10 days out? Dammit I’m going to be out of town and miss the day 1 flash

 

Anybody has an experience with 3gen 3.5l tune?
Mostly towing ..

I'm considering but don't have any "review" of such a conditions...

Thanks

Not everything is towing specific but...start there

 

@dialfonzo also, keep in mind that those reviews stretch back to v1.03 of the tune. The early ones are not representative of the current tune iteration available.

 

It's 2018....everyone knows everything, and can be whatever kind of professional they want...thanks to the power of Google and the mighty keyboard sword

Twins look like it’s good for a bit over 500hp max!

@OVTune when 1.05 is released will the files be automatically pushed to everyone’s emails who already purchased the tune package for dongle-less?

 

So, once 1.05 comes out do we literally just email you asking for it?
Do I need to include my "identify it" code in that email? Sorry for the novice question.
I'm running 1.04 91.

 

Once 1.05 drops I'll leave this god forsaken thread. It's been fun though.

 

I did the same trip with my camper (about 3500 lbs.) stock and then after 1.04. After tuning it was easier to get moving and maintain speed. Also saw an increase of about 1 MPG.

 

HOLY CRAPPPPPPPP!!!!

 

Thanks .. !

 

You must be new here... There's no such thing as "on topic" in this thread

 

I will say that while I still agree that the latest calibration is miles away from B03, after 1200 miles I am noticing more of the “sloppy” shifting @OVTune mentioned. It’s only a split second but under 50-60% throttle on acceration it seems to hang between 3-4 shifts like it’s not sure if it wants to shift. When it does the shift is smooth but I’m guessing this is part of what was referred to as a “slight” momentary reduction in available torque to loosen things up for a smoother shift.

Really excited to see how he’s buttoned things up in 1.05!

 

Tooo late

 

Mat said there would be a new version of flash manager for 1.05.

 

this tune will turn your toyota prius into a toyota tacoma

 

Need help. Sorry for going off topic, but I know a few people on this thread are running new version of techstream. I installed new version of TS (12.30.017) and entered activation code with 5000 day license. I am unable to connect to vehicle because of VIM error. What am I missing? Truck ignition is in ON position while trying to connect.

I had older version of techstream installed and it worked flawlessly with no issues.

 

Go into settings of TS and make sure it’s set to use the Tactrix

 

Some of you MT guys.......... Guess I better watch out for your superiority after this

 

Got it. New computer and I forgot I hadn’t installed open port 2.0 drivers. Thanks for your help!!!
