    Does the Camry do this on regular gas? That's what I want, 301 on regular.

    Nah, I think he's still getting stuff packaged and all haven't gone out yet. I'm #1966 and no tracking yet but looks like it should be in the works! Now if only it could make it here by the weekend so I could have time to enjoy before the work week

    Do previous buyer get cases with this shipment? I'd rather other people who don't have a tune yet get there's, just curious. They look good.

    I'm not sure why you guys aren't getting the tracking email from my website, 1950s shipped 1960s shipped 1970s shipped 1980s on the way to the post office

    give me a sec I'll see if I can have my site resend them all out. Can you guys also check your SPAM folder



    This is something important to take into consideration.

    The ECU has 16 different settings, rather than eliminating 15 we could also consider condensing it into 10, or 6, or 4, etc

    Okay I'm just going to send everyone an email directly with their tracking numbers I'm not sure why nobody got the auto email. Sorry

    I'll send those out this evening to the email that was used to make the order.

    Im perfectly content on this. I think all we are asking is for more stable and confident driving experience. Less deltas. I know i requested to "disable learning" when i sent you my stock tune but im trusting you to "set" it as you see fit.

    I like this approach also. The 2 guys that have learn disabled are running 1 map? Lets just hold tight till they give feed back and maybe do a larger test group based on their results. Perhaps if they say its great 10 people test a 4 map tune and if they say its crap a 10 map tune. I think the learning could be useful because some of us do city driving most of the time and some of us do highway driving.

    What about a mode system where we choose between city, highway, offroad and eco?

    New here so pardon the FNG chiming in with long windedness. I will caveat this by saying I know next to nothing about "tuning" a car via an ECU. I grew up driving old 60s & 70s "Hot Rods" my best being a 65 Nova with a 450hp 327. You "tuned" them via the carb, cam, torque converter... etc. I knew how that car was going to drive, every time I drove it. If it didn't drive like I expected it to, I began to look for what was wrong. I also had a 98 Chevy Silverado extended cab. I knew the way that truck would drive every time. This is why I am leaning towards no "learning." I am missing exactly what the "learning" function actually does for the driver. I drive 2.5mi to work on residential streets, to and from the grocery store, etc... Very little highway/freeway driving unless I am going somewhere far. I went to Mammoth 2 weeks ago and the shifting, gear hunting, 3300RPMs at 75mph, lack of throttle response, etc... was killing me. I know, as evidenced by the new Camry, that this motor has much more in it. My Nova was "tuned" to give me it's all when I wanted it. If I wanted roast the tires I could "ask" it to via my foot and it would comply. If I wanted to launch it, I could ask it to via my foot and it would. If I wanted to accelerate rapidly from 45 to 65, I would ask it to via my foot and hand (gear selection) and it would. I am not expecting my truck to drive like a 2400lb 2 door with 450hp, I just want it to drive like a 4dr, lifted truck with 278hp should be capable of driving. @OVTune seems as to have developed a product that will solve many of those problems by tuning the motor to let it produce to its full potential. That I am HUGELY interested in. Unless there is something I am missing with regard to the "learning mode," I personally have no desire for it. And if its 1-2mpg, I don't care as I will control that with my foot which I am also used to doing. With all that said, +12 or whatever it is, pending my being educated.

    I'm #1943, anxiously awaiting my tracking number. Will post up when I get it. I'm likely the furthest away too, on the East coast of Canada.

    tracking received for 1966! ...looks like I'll have it here in Nashville by Friday. Hopefully early enough to get my stock file to OV before he heads out for the weekend, but I know he'll be getting flooded so crossing fingers! stoke factor = high
