    Yes unfortunately the 3rd gen has taken up almost all of our time. Toyota has been sending out more and more ecu TSBs for multiple issues, which has taken pretty much all of our time to incorporate in 1.05.
    We have also had terrible weather and lost power several times over the last 2 weeks.

    I am just excited that yall have cracked the ECU. This can open the after market for the Tacoma up even more. The OV tuned company seems to be growing and should hire some more people to make this product mainstream.

    My old boss used to say "You cant take 9 women and make a baby in a month." I will just patiently waiting and watching this forum for when the 2nd gen gets the love.

    I understand and know the 4.0 platform has tons of potential, the 3rd gen is just eating up 99% of our time because it has so many damn problems. (I do truly love the truck). The truck itself is not the problem it's Toyota throwing out waves and waves of TSBs for the ECU to fix the damn transmission. We have 50 3rd gens we do for every 2nd right now because of it

    Sounds like an undetermined wait until 3rd gen trucks are problem free. Bummer.

    2.6 worked. I think there's enough room in the AFR for 2.5. I see 11.2 WOT, but I still dip into the 10's momentarily at part throttle.

    I'm was running 2.5 pulley on the TRD reflash and still seeing in the mid-9s at Wot. Now I have the ovtune and I still see no difference at wide open throttle. But the tune does feel better than the TRD reflash.
