    There are some here that are wiser than a guy trying to sell you his chit bro.

    Ever heard “ believe half of what you hear and nothing of what you read?”

    TW is prime for this.

    Buyer beware,

    Believe the lie over the truth, even after the truth is the knife in your back.

    Ov tune is good, physics and chemistry are 99% right every time though...

    I’d rather buy gears than an OTS tune, but that’s just me.

    Without high enough compression, the higher octane is wasted. I also run antique Aladdin Lamps. I can run more fuel and create carbon with K-1 which does me no good what so ever because the air to fuel mix can only be some much and work efficiently. I am pretty sure you know well what I am saying, and I understand your reply too .

    Truth be told, it is a system, one performance mod leads to another and so on.

    New exhaust leads to needing more fuel, more fuel leads to more air.......vicious circle.
    I say circle because you can end up right back at 0 if you do not understand what things are telling you..

    Do me a favor and call Toyota engineers before you hit yourself in the face with your palm lol. There are many TOYOTA supporting documents that state exactly what I posted above. I will find the documentation to support my argument. Will you find documentation to support yours? ;)

    I run a dual tank system in my Taco. I keep 87 in one tank and 91 in the other. Sometimes when I’ve gotta make it across the county line, I switch to 91, and hold on. Once I get my functional hood scoop with Ram Air, I’ll pretty much be above the law.
