    Not an option with Vftuner.
    Only Hypertech and Rough Country make the speedometer calibrator.

    Awesome! Congrats Kreg and TWtaco on the latest tune. Count me in, been running Dacruiser 3.3 since January and enjoy it. I could only imagine the difference y’all have put in since January.

    Yeah it's still there. But papas tunes are great! The rev hang drives me crazy and it's been over 6 months since @OVTune said he could do something about it but haven't heard anything since

    I'm ready when you are. I keep my laptop with me at all times...You are going to love this version. I've been running it for a couple weeks now.

    Also, I've done quite a few 2021's...seems nothing has really changed in the shift logic since 2016 despite Toyota having 5 years to get it "fixed".

    Haha, figures this would come out a few weeks after getting Kruiser 4.0. Oh well. I've been happy with it. Maybe I'll try this out in the future. It's a reasonable price.

    That's what I meant to imply by "it's a reasonable price" I was just too lazy to add "... to upgrade." :D

    This sounds very promising. I have a couple questions. Please forgive any ignorance, as I have not done *any* tunes on my truck yet, so have zero personal experience with any of them.

    * @b3itz refers to a "rev hang" on manual transmissions. Is this something that comes on after a tune? I haven't noticed such a thing on my bone stock 2017 Off Road 6MT. Just wondering if this might be something I could expect if I were to go with this tune.
    * If for any reason a person were to decide they wanted to revert back to OEM programming down the road, is that possible to do? By myself, or would I need to take it to a dealer and risk them getting their panties in a bunch because I messed with the factory programming?
    * For this particular tune package - what are the benefits, for a manual trans equipped truck: smoother running of the engine? increased MPG? Increased HP/Torque? Again, since I have no prior experience, I am just wondering and not trying to seem confrontational with this question.
    * Is this tune something that a person can do on their own? What, other than the data files, would I need? A laptop Windows PC? certain type of cable to connect to the truck? .... Other?

    Much appreciated.

    @TWTaco or @trdquoc are in California. They can get you tuned.
    If you want to do it yourself, you have to buy Vftuner.
    There is a thread describing the Vftuner for manuals. It has lots of info on rev hang.

    Rev hang was around before i flashed a custom tune as far as i can remember. I know for sure it was an issue in SFOB 2.0 from @OVTune
    I wish we could get more information about it

    It’s been an issue in every factory ecu revision and tune. Some are worse than others.

    Flashed this today (manual transmission). Didn't really get to drive a lot, just a couple of quick errands, but the tune feels pretty good. Excellent (and consistent) acceleration and throttle.

    I've been running Mat's 2.0 for the last several months (interrupted by trying a couple of tweaks from the MT tuning thread, and trying to figure things out). Don't have quite enough drive time on it to compare for sure, but it definitely feels more consistent from gear to gear. Rev hang is still a thing, feels like it comes down just a bit faster maybe, but not sure I can quantify it.

    I'll definitely be driving this one for a while, let the truck (and me) get used to it. :)

    I will definitely want to try the updated version. I did revert back to k4.0 @PapaRee because it was running on my truck better than @Mooseditty17 tune. I liked his tune big power but my gas mileage was horrible ,again moosedittys tune is great just not for my truck . @TermLimits tune is currently running in my truck and by far his tune has my truck behaving at it's best I'm getting back up to almost 21mpg 5th is pulling great 6th is holding on longer their getting along better if that makes sense
