Tacoma - OVTUNE - VFTUNER - Update Info and Original Development

I'm stock so someone else should comment.
But stock I had those issues and it is way better with the tune. Sometimes it is still in 5th with a crosswind but it doesn't shift back and forth like it used to, and avoids 4th way better in those conditions.

 

I am running the same ,but have a lot of extra weight. 1.04 91 does not work well for me. I started on 1.03 87 then when 1.04 came out i jumped to that on 91 i immediately had a clunk when coming to a stop. Never had it on 1.03. 1.04 also didn't hold 5th & 6th well for me on any slight incline would do the gear searching thing. I went back to 1.03 91 and no more clunk and it holds 6th gear on the same daily route @ 70-75 MPH. 1.03 Much better for me and my trucks extra mods!

 

Gonna take a wild guess and say nobody got their tune files?

 

Nada for me.. BUT I just gave OVT my ECU ID this morning..

 

Lol I’d say you’re right.

 

Is Sunday the longest someone has been waiting for tune files? That’s when I sent my info to Matt.

 

@BT17 <--- Waited 2 months for tune files

 

Guess I should just chill and enjoy the anticipation. Just sent him my ECU data last night.

 

I am in Victor and have had my taco tuned for months now. You will love it.

 

Pretty soon, the "Tune" mod will have longer leadtimes then sliders and skid plates. JK

Patiently awaiting the S/W. It is going to be great.

 

I recommend flash 1.04 first. Like many others stated, power delivery is more refined, throttle tip in is smoother, mpg slightly better compared to 1.03. I prefer the driving characteristic of 1.04 over 1.03, BUT, I had the downshift clunk coming to stop. Sent logs to Mat 2 weeks ago, but I don't think he have time to investigate the issue yet.

So I flashed back to 1.03, the aggressive throttle tip-in is annoying, but at least there is no clunk on 1.03 for me. Completely stock 2017 TRD Pro, 04B03 automatic ECU. I used 91 octane on both tune versions.

 

Sweet Taco! I bought the Fuel Vapors for my white 2018 OR Double Cab, and love how they look on yours. 17" -12 offset?

 

Thanks! Yes, -12 offset they turned out great.

 

Awesome. I'm just waiting on a backordered set of King rear shocks to complete my lift kit, then those bad boys will be going on. Picked up a set of BFG K02s for them. Can't wait!

 

I prefer the feel of 1.03 as the vehicle felt a little lighter and more responsive. I’m completely stock except a Leer canopy.

1.04 is definitely 1-4 MPGs better depending on driving style/conditions so I have stuck with that for now.

Wish I could have best of both worlds!

 

same here, went back to it weeks ago

 

Anyone run AT 1.03 for 500+ miles? Would like to know what kind of mileage you are getting with 87 octane. I’m running 1.04 87 and averaging 18-19 going to work with lift, armor, and size up tires

 

Kinda like the same way the “old guys” complained about having an imperfect tune on their trucks?

 

Not the same at all.
