Tacoma - OVTUNE - VFTUNER - Update Info and Original Development

Best reply ever. " Wow gear lock!!!"
MT guys: eh, had it since day one

 

At the end of the day... I don’t have to worry about burning a clutch stuck in traffic up hill

 

Funny although I agree, my beater commuter is a manual and I love it. Gets 40+ mpg too

 

Well my daily commuter is my taco. My taco is also my fun vehicle. And my work truck. And my...

 

Haha. You probably should not drive a manual then for sure lol

But I can see how a manual would suck if one lives in a hilly area. I live in Utah and while we most definitely have hills and hilly terrain, it's really never an issue. Just have to plan ahead a little.

 

I did the same. Downloaded 93 fob flashed. Truck runs awesome and is sooo smooth!

 

Kicking myself for filling up with 89 octane this week

 

Unfortunately I had a full tank of 87 so I just flashed the 0B04 87 performance and hello tip in!! I hadn’t seen it since like 1.03 but but she’s definitely a lot more lively now. Looking forward to 93 performance later this e

 

@OVTune do I need to re-download the flashmanager?

 

I ran with the Speed 3 scene for a while, loved that car but I like my truck more. Mazdaspeedforums prepared me for TW, less ban hammer here though. "Can I fit my tires on this lift" is the equivalent to "Can I run a downpipe/E85 and not do the HPFP". Got my car tuned by Nishan, ran 25% corn and got lucky and never had to clean the pump but boy did I love E85!!!! Turbos love it. But you are right, just run 91 if you are looking for MPG and low/easy maintenance

 

you just need to hit the update button in flash manager

 

Small world, I was tuned by Nishan when I ran my BNRs3. Tuned via Will at Purple Drank for my gtx3076r

 

For people playing with gear lock and shifting. You have to let off the accelerator if you want to shift at high RPM. If you you're pedal to the ground and shift at 6500 it's not going to be nice, it will be a hard shift because it will peg the limiter.

 

YES!!!

 

That was it...!!

 

Why do I get the feeling that this post may be in response to my recent ticket about what happens when I hit the high rev limit in 1st or 2nd? lol... shit.

 

Not only you lol, seems everyone is out playing with it pegging the limiter.
You got to shift before the limiter and or upshift and let off the gas pedal.


Imagine shifting while full throttle in a manual. Same effect, not a nice shift at all.

Blog post says to let off the gas pedal at high rpm to shift

 

My turn to look like an idiot - so this is now disabled? I finally got off work and was so excited to do this, but when I clicked on the link on step one (see picture), I get this "The file you are trying to download is no longer available" - so this no longer works and we are waiting for new link now?

 

Fair enough. Just need to re-learn the throttle a bit. Thank you for the clarification!

PS: the truck is crazy fun to drive with the 93 performance tunes... THANK YOU!!

 

so like driving an MT truck....
