Custom Toyota Calibrations, Overlander 6.0 & OVTune

Super clean 2016 that already had the TSB Update from Toyota, but he soon realized that he wanted more.

We discussed driving style and what he wanted out of his Taco and he decided on the KDMax 6.0 Performance Tune. Even though he had the TSB already done, we still used Best Practices in flashing the KDMax to ensure a trouble free flash. Provided a through test drive monitoring all parameters and the client was stoked!!!

 

Had several trucks on Saturday and this was another sharp Super White 2017 SR5 that was in for the TSB Upgrade and KDMax 6.0 Performance Tune.

The client complained of lack of power/torque and horrid highway shifting. All these issues and more were resolved with the KDMax tune. The client was thrilled with the results.

Had a 2018 AT in for a TSB Update and the KDMax 6.0 Performance Tune.

The client runs a 700hp Supercharged Mustang as his weekend car and needed something done with the Tacoma. I was pleased to see his reaction on the test drive and the texts after telling me how great the truck was running really made the day.


Come see us for your 2016+ Tacoma tuning and calibration needs~

Returning customer today with a 2021 Tacoma to get upgraded to the KDMax 6.0 Performance Tune.

The client was skeptical that we could make the truck shift better than the previous tune, but was immediately pleased with the results.

He said that anyone on the fence with a 2021 should know that there is so much more driveability you can get with a proper calibration.

Had a 2018 on its way from Ft. Brag, NC to Texas stop to get tuned with the KDMax Performance Tune.

Also updated him to the latest TSB from Toyota.. I think he is going to really enjoy the drive time now that he is tuned.

Client in for an upgrade from Kruiser 4.0 to the new KDMax 6.0 Performance Tune... He was skeptical that it could get even better, but left pleased after experiencing the results !

 

2018 Toyota Tacoma down from Huntsville, AL Today for the KDMax 6.0 Performance Tune and TSB Update.

This Client puts a bunch of road miles on his truck between here and Oklahoma, so the KDMax was perfect for the best Highway Experience... No more gear hunting and better power and torque are just a few of the improvements that have been made.

Contact us if you Overland, Daily Drive or offroad your Tacoma as we have the solution to a better driving experience.

 

This is my truck pictured above ^^^ Let me start this from the drive down... We all know how crappy these things are when climbing long hills on the interstate and the sudden shift to 4th gear and RPM's shooting up. The 100 mile drive from my house to B'ham is full of these hills.

When I arrived, John was standing in the driveway waiting for me. After a quick introduction, he got started right away. He took his time and clearly explained everything he was doing step by step and answered every question I had. It went flawlessly and then it was time for the test drive. I immediately got a big grin on my face when I touched the gas pedal. It was like night and day. John sits in the passenger seat with a wireless pad and monitors everything the truck is doing as I drive, telling me everything he is seeing and everything is exactly as it should be. I don't know how many times I started laughing during the drive from feeling how responsive the truck was now and at the difference in the way it was shifting thru the gears. We end the test drive and I start the drive back home...

I stop to fill up with gas and hit the interstate. I'm grinning again. I'm cruising back up the long uphills at 85mph and it's right at about 2000rpm's, now it downshifts to FIFTH and doesn't miss a beat. I get home and wait for my girlfriend to get off work and tell her "let's go somewhere", so we drive up to Nashville just for the hell of it.

Today i even drove to a Home Depot 20mi away instead of going to the one that's 1.5mi from my house, just so I could drive it more. To sum it all up, John made me love my truck. The KDMax tune is the sh!t. If you haven't got it yet, get it, you won't be disappointed. (and he also said that it would take a couple of tanks of gas to "settle in", so I'm pretty stoked to see how it's all going to turn out)

 

Phillip -


Thank you for your time and support.. It was great meeting you and please enjoy the Tune !


Best,

John

 

I have recently got into the Tacoma (2021 Pro) again having a 95 and 07 while the initial truck was a fun to drive after a few thousand miles I started noticing all the complaints that people said about the 3rd gen. I started digging into the “fixes” noticed all the main ov tunes where in the western areas then I stumbled upon this the kdmax tune. While the initial graphs and such didn’t look promising I started asking questions. John did a great job explaining and giving the confidence to try. He spent about 1 hour of his time on a 5 minute install to explain and assure me everything that was going on with the change. After the install I was noticing things trying to figure out what and how things worked continuing the conversation with John that he was more than willing to help.
The truck is a monster compared to what it was and drives exactly like you expected a new truck to drive. I find myself asking people about their Tacoma now because I want to spread the word on how much better it could be.

 

Ryan,

Thanks for taking the time to write this.. Its greatly appreciated and thank you again for the trust and support.


Best,

john

 

Super Sharp 2016 that had continued issues of gear hunting and throttle lag. The latest TSB was already in the truck and it really never helped the clients concerns, so after some consultation with the client we decided on the KDMax 6.0 ..

The test drive is always the best part for me, just seeing the smiles and even laughter lets me know we are doing right by the client. Another happy Tacoma owner!!

I know fuel economy is very subjective and we make no promises about it, but I wanted to share an experience that my client in the picture below had with his MGM 2020 after being upgraded from Kruiser 4.0 to the new KDMax tune.

The below photos are 2 different 100 miles splits after running the KDMax.. the truck is a 2020 AT with 33" tires and a 2.5" Lift... Stock gearing and no additional weight. He stated he was driving an average of 72 mph and this was from Birmingham, AL to Atlanta and down to Brunswick, GA.

I understand that this is not hilly terrain, but its just one example of my clients being stoked about what this tune has to offer... Your Mileage will vary !!!

Cheers,

John~

 

I have been driving on the KDMax 6.0 Tune for a couple of weeks now and can say that making the choice to go this route with the KDMax over the Kruiser tune was well worth it! Everything from the shift points to acceleration and deceleration is vastly improved and I am so very impressed. That's just the tune, though. I couldn't have asked for a more positive experience working with John through the process. This isn't some guy looking to make some side change flashing tunes. He knows his stuff and has the experience to back it up. Starting from a thorough checklist to ensure everything was in order before performing the tune, to taking a solid test drive to ensure the truck was performing as it should, John made sure he did everything he could to ensure I was satisfied with the tune.

If you are on the fence about whether or not you should get the tune, you won't find a more knowledgeable and friendly guy to make sure all your questions and hesitations are answered.

Thanks, John!

 

Matthew -

So glad you are loving the tune and thank you so much for taking the time out of your busy schedule to write the review.. Appreciate your trust and support.

Kind regards,

John

 

2020 Tacoma in for an updated TSB and the KDMax 6.0 Performance Tune. Again, seeing complaints with shifting and power in the stock calibration.

Took time to explain the procedure and as always using best practices for flashing both the TSB and new Calibration.

Typical test drive with the client laughing when just leaving the driveway.. He was so pleased with the results and so were we..
We monitored AFR's, Knock, Torque Converter Locking, Shift Points, All Temperatures and Ignition Advance to name just a few.. The truck loved the tune...

 

2017 Tacoma in for a TSB Update and the KDMax tune.

I love to see the working trucks coming in to to get tuned.. Calibration is not just for people looking for performance from their truck, it also makes for a great daily driver.. Linear throttle response, smoother shifting and no more gear hunting and 4th gears hangs are only some of the benefits.

 

2020 TRD in today for the KDMax Performance Tune.. Even though the truck had the latest TSB, the client was still not happy with the shifting..

All that was corrected today !

 

Nice 2019 Tacoma in today for a custom Calibration.

Spent time with the client seeing exactly what his goals were for the truck and what driving style and terrain he was using the truck for.

After a few tune changes he settled on what he liked the best with regard to shift points, torque converter locking & unlocking and driveability.
While we have some amazing canned tunes, I have several clients this week looking at specific custom tuning.

Definitely worth the extra effort to give them exactly what they want.






The client also gave me some custom laser engraved gifts with our logo !! What a great surprise to end a great day of calibrating.

John did a fantastic job on my Tacoma. The performance difference is very noticeable during take off, as well as highway speeds. He was very professional and detail oriented. The whole process took about 45 minutes. I highly recommend his services!
