    That is correct. I’m putting this in my Land Cruiser. ( sorry should’ve led with that ). I have a Northstar in my 3rd gen but haven’t found another route other than putting my CTEK charger on the battery every once in awhile.

    You are correct.
    Only option I've found for 3rd gens is vftune. 3rd gens are controlled by the ecu and ovtune found the settings and have/will have it as an adjustable option in vftune. Some guys have played with it already with good results on the stock tunes.

    Unless I'm completely missing something here. $340 minus $20 is $320

    Hmmmm. Mine was 359.00 discount code subtracted 72.00 core was 18.00 and taxes were 16.22 which bought the total to 322.21. I guess your local taxes made the difference.

    What is the recommended charge voltage for the 27f version of this battery? For 3rd gen's, I see people have been using their same tray and bolts, where can i get a good looking aftermarket one for the 27f?

    @turbodb where did you find the 20% off coupon? I’m just trying to find the details on how long it’s good for.
