    So, do you think that downloading the stock VF tunes for the 2.7 will right any issues that may be out of whack with my truck currently? I would like to learn how to use the software to enhance the few modifications I have made like LCE headers, Air Raid cold air intake, and 5.29 gears, though I just recently downloaded Dyno Tunes program to upload the tunes from their site onto my Power Commander V for my ZX6R-but the manual tuning portion of their software seems pretty complex. Any advice?

    Unless you plan to modify them yourself to compensate, no. Stock files are stock files...

    Yep, that's my plan bud. I'm a bit apprehensive because it seems we have a huge following of people who want to use the VF software to enhance the 2.7-but no one knowledgeable in tuning has done so. Even the creator of the platform hasn't gone any further than releasing a baseline tune. I believe that is a good starting point-but curious why out of all the Tacoma culture we have, no one has capitalized on this niche market-or even just do it to overcome this debacle. Can you feel me Tacoma world?

    i have no idea. people keep saying there isn't enough interest. there's no interest because no one will tune it.

    Ladies and gentlemen, I have an experienced tuner that is pretty well known in the European market for tuning that has agreed to take on the 2.7L tuning to provide some out of the box performance tunes for our trucks as well as remote tuning options. I would like to start a poll to see how many are interested in his services, but I figured I'd at least start with this thread as I know there are quite a bit of people here that would probably like first dibs since we've been adamantly waiting so long. So who's in?

    I'm pretty sure he will use the VF software as a platform to help some of us less knowledgeable about tuning get our trucks where we want them. So, from what I understand the M/T ECU hasn't been cracked yet.

    Its wild that all these years of 4 banger imports (probably mostly m/t) the tacoma manual hasn't been cracked. Toyota locks down our trucks soo much compared to other manufactures

    I know. It seems strange to me too. But I don't know much about tuning so maybe it's far more difficult than I imagine. At least Matt has given us a good platform to start on with the VF Tuner software.

    I'm interested too. I have a 2016 5 speed. If, that is, the MT 2.7 is ever opened up.
