    I've been looking at the OV Tune site and I'm trying to figure out what I need in order to flash my taco. Do I need to order the vForest tuner software and flash cable? I've read through some of this post and it's 3,489 pages and I'm a little confused on what is needed with the changes being made. Any help here is greatly appreciated. :cheers:

    Especially a stranger who declares zero liability from flashing a tune and the truck exploding a week later. Lol

    Quick questions for anyone who knows, does the OV tune 2.0 files based on tire size recalibrate the speedometer? I assumed it did, but a buddy of mine with 35"s says his is still off, same as before the tune. Just wondering if I did something wrong, or if there are other solutions people are using in conjunction with OV tune to solve this?

    No, it does not. Hypertech is the only solution I know of but I have never used one personally.

    Really? That's curious. Only way is to hijack the signal on the way to the cluster?

    Yep, it originates in the skid control ECU. ECM has nothing to do with it excpet read/receive it for engine speed/load calculations for shift points among other things I'm sure.

    Rough country does too.
    Not recalibrating means less miles on the odometer... Just saying.

    You have it right, vf software and flash cable. If you want the 2.0 tunes, you would get the tune pack as well.
