    thanks!

    I post everything in the alpha thread regarding updates, communication, what's being worked on to improve this, etc.
    Unfortunately it gets buried just as fast as everything else and then people think that I'm not doing anything about it.

    But I am proactively working on a better way to ensure everyone gets answers, answered, and what they need without delay.

    I will have everything posted after a nights sleep

    Yea I watch both of them. I’m excited to get my dongleless one working I got in yesterday, but I’m patient. I understand you just got there and need to get things situated. Plus, ugh anywhere outside the USA... terrible.

    Keeping an eye out on both threads! Thanks Mat!

    Sounds like trifecta has multiple reps
    Forgive me if I’m wrong but I’m pretty sure there is only one guy handling everything
    With this one

    Sold out till July per my understanding.. Their website is being revamped at the moment:

    https://www.ovtuned.com/

    However, some of the child pages are available.

    So I received the new OV tune today with the dongleless setup. Came with a card saying to go to the web site for instructions but only the older instructions for use with the dongle are on the site. Am I missing something? Was excited to load this baby tonight....hmmm.

    With the purchase of this tune, will there be future support integrated? Say I upgrade my exhaust or intake, or change my rotating mass that alters my loadxrpmx[fuel/timing] maps, will the purchase include future refinement of the maps?

    I think I recall him saying you can request for other stuff later on. That’s what the quote suggests. It’s somewhere in the 900+ pages. I think it’s in the 890 range.

    Help needed please!
    I am doing the dongleless setup and I am to the point of identifying the ECU. I have turned off and deleted every security and anti-virus I could find. I can't get Toyflash to identify. Everything is grayed out...My system ID, and name are in the box but no ecu data. Thank you in advance

    Did you receive the registry files? Did you run the file you received?

    Greetings all, first post and I need some help.

    I’ve downloaded all files for the last of the dongle based tunes...no luck with pulling the serial number. I’ve tried the files something like 10-20 times now. Using Windows 10.

    I keep getting “Dongle not accessible” like a few others.

    Can someone post either the solutions they’ve achieved and/or a screen shot of the exact file structure because when I install, the downloader attempts to place some folders in other locations.

    Any and all help is appreciated, I do have the same questions into Matt, but he is obviously busy so whatever you have, I’m willing to try in the meantime.

    I guess I am slow - but how do you get pricing and info on the OVT for the 3.5L?

    It's sold out. When it becomes available, it'll be posted. And the website will work. And have pricing. It's close to $800.
