    Quick question, for those with one of the ebay techstream cables.

    With that cable can you view what ECU calibration is loaded onto the truck?

    Maybe. Many of the eBay Techstream USB cables don't work have the time. I ended up buying the recommended one which is around $400. But I have three toyotas and have used on all three so in my case it paid for its self.

    I have the drew technologies one. I wasted money on 2 eBay cheap ones that don't work with Techstream Lite, but there are folks in this forum and the Tundra and Toyota Nation forums that have had success with the cheap eBay versions.

    Curious as to how you sourced techstream. I've read that most of the Chinese cables come with pirated techstream + tons of spyware/malware.
