    Ok, to remind everyone.

    P5F keys are controlled by 3rd party.
    He was not available last weekend and some of this week because of Easter.

    And I haven't sent all vF keys yet, which I do control

    My 2 cents on the 2.0 test version. Was shakey on the first drive...wasnt too sure i liked it. After the first 100 miles, it seems pretty good. Good power up and down and the tip in seems fine. A few things i did notice, cold start seem to stutter, it never did this before, maybe a battery issue. It dies start up tho. Twice i’ve felt a dead zone from stop when i push the gas. It doesnt happen all the time but i did notice it again after the first time. Anyways, look forwatd to getting the 2.0 performance tune if available

    I'm loving 2.0. This is the best my truck has ever driven. I do have the start up stutter when it first starts in the morning though. I use my Tacoma as my work truck for a pool service route so i start and stop it 15-20 times a day. It usually only stutters on my first start up of the day but It did stutter once during the day after it was plenty warmed up. looking forward to the update. Still coming tomorrow?

    I drive in D ECT. Does pretty well. Gear locking isn't for me. Mostly because don't tow or encounter hills. In S5 gear locked @80mph it wouldn't gain any mph @ full throttle, just maintained: this was on a tiny hill. D ECT seems like the mode I'd drive in 99% of the time

    Normally just D mode. Did test out smode/gearlock and it does as advertised. Gotta let off the gas a bit for it to shift to 6th. Have not tried to tow. Ect is as i remember...a little more peppy

    After 200+ miles, gotta say that 2.0 with 93 octane is pretty awesome specially with ECT enabled.

    Only issue with it so far is the dicey start up which should be fixed in final

    It was in the registry email I got...TWICE

    Please read the instructions. it covers registering, registering your flash license, obtaining your ECU info, how to unlock a ID, credits, editing, etc.
    if you have any questions please let us know.

    The master key is your credentials for using the software.
    Your master key will not change even if you install on a different computer.
    You should install it on the same computer that you use to flash your tacoma as of right now with the flash kit.

    we do not recommend installing vF Tuner until we release support for the tacoma (about a week).
    vF Tuner can be downloaded from the front page of our website.

    WE DO NOT RECOMMEND INSTALLING VF TUNER UNTIL TACOMA SUPPORT RELEASES, MAY 1, 2020.

    It was inevitable that some people would be too excited to resist.

    Strange that I seem to be the only one experiencing the hesitation/stutter when accelerating from a stop.

    Did you clear LV and AT? Maybe try reloading the tune and clearing those values again?
