Tacoma - OVTUNE - VFTUNER - Update Info and Original Development

Makes sense. What are the gains without dump tubes?

 

Our tuned gains?

 

Significant. Am I right?

FOB, FTW.

 

I thought I was satisfied with 1.05.1 87 base using 92 Octane. I decided to try 1.05.1 91 base using the same 92 octane. Not sure how to describe it but 1.05.1 91 base is much nicer. Only thing I don't like is 4th gear hangs up when accelerating/passing cars up Mountain Passes. I've been slipping it into S-mode so it'll shift than popping it back into D. The power is noticeable when pulling a trailer or Heavy Loads. Plus...Each trip has reported better fuel mileage than the 1.05.1 87 base. Wether it's commuting home 5 miles or a 100+ mile weekend trip.

 

Sorry I did not see your post. We are working on getting through all tickets. We got bombarded with the holiday sale and are still working through it all.

Speaking of that, we should have all pending holiday orders for tune kits out this week. (cable manufacture was out of office for a week, so we're playing catch up)

 

Cool I appreciate it sorry for the can I speak to the manager rant

 

I spy a price on the twin turbo kit....https://www.ovtuned.com/collections/toyota?page=1

 

Cheaper than I'd expected

 

Makes me more anxious to see the prices on the SC kits since that's probably the route I'm going.

 

Same. Figured I'd want to go with the Stage 1 SC

 

That's three of us.

 

Either will be a game changer up here in the mountains of Colorado with 33" tires.

 

What would we do without you @OVTune

 

After 1200 miles 87 base is awesome period

 

Says it uses his dump tubes but I wonder how this works with the y pipe. Throwing a turbo in between can’t mate up to stock y pipe or URD...grrrrrr looks badass tho!

 

A turbo will have custom headers. Twins should be symmetric and a single will have a crazy routing.

The current dump tubes should be right on with an SC.

 

Guess I’ll be going SC route since I just invested in his catted dump tubes and a URD y pipe. Honestly between the tune, 5.29 gears, dump tubes, URD y pipe, and maybe his SC kit, I better be in a good spot as much as I love turbos, I don’t know if it will be worth it for me. The 35s are already movin ALOT better and still getting better gas mileage than stock.

 

I'll be further behind you guys lol I'm still a student and while I already have a couple job offers for my intended career, I don't officially graduate until November and would like to try to be somewhat responsible about all this.

I ordered the catless dump tubes over the holiday and once I'm ready, I intend to go with the stage 1 SC. Probably a Christmas/graduation present to myself

 

If the Stage 1 SC passes emission requirements here in Colorado I'll be saving my nickels and pinching pennies to round out the 4.88 2.0 OVTune coming soon !
