Tacoma - OVTUNE - VFTUNER - Update Info and Original Development

What’s your AVG? What mods do you have?

 

That’s why we want a good tune to help our taco’s shift and run better. It’s straight torture in traffic.

 

No performance mods just the added stuff you see here. Avg mpg is 12-14.

 

Something is wrong if your average is 12-14. You’re in Cali? Hills? Mountains? Lots of traffic?

Bring it to a dealer.

 

Nothing is wrong, it’s called city driving and lots of traffic.

Thank you for your concern though bud.

 

I had BFG KO2s 265/70/17 and was getting terrible MPGs. I do alot of highway driving right now as well and it wasn’t happening. Sold the BFGs and picked up Nitto Terra Grappler G2. The Nittos are 40lbs SL rated tire vs the E load 54lbs BFGs.

 

Time to get the tune

 

Yea, I’m pretty sure the tires play a part in it to. Also swapped out my Method Rims for SCS and that helped alittle.

 

OVtune, have you figured out locking the rear differential in 2wd mode?

 

Hell Yea!

 

@OVTune ​

 

I've been feeling a little guilty for my impatience on the tune, but now that I've read through the first 25 pages of this thread I'm realizing we are ALL impatient on this blessed day, lol. @OVTune is a pretty patient dude dealing with our a$$es.

 

I get 19mpg, 80mph highway and roush hour commute stop and go through downtown la, 220 miles a day.

245 tires, you should be getting better mpg.

 

I have the same size KO2s but in C Load. I didn’t take much of a hit on mileage with those.

 

So I have a compiled list of 1.03 reviews from the MT guys, should I make a thread just for reviews only? It’ll be easier to track.

 

You’ll probably get in trouble.

 

@dYL0n is there any question whether people want it or not anymore? Its basically like getting a brand new truck for $800 thats the best deal Ive ever heard of in my life

 

Yeah I have a high chance of getting banned for starting a new thread.

 

Well, many who are new to the OVtune scene get overwhelmed/pissed off with how fast these threads move. Guilty..guilty here.

It would be good to have the reviews in one place, so long as it was just reviews/questions/answers.

Easier to herd kittys tho...

Dunno if the mods would ever relinquish limited control to that thread only.. say the ability to delete fluff.

Yes, yes Irony.

 

Nice! I originally ordered them in C load through discount tire with price matching at $205 a piece. I went in for my appointment and when it came time to get the tires they said they only had 2 in C load. They had 4 in e load and they price matched them at the same price. I wished I would of stayed with original order in C load.
