Tacoma - OVTUNE - VFTUNER - Update Info and Original Development

He has said many times in this thread that handheld units are not compatible with the 3rd gen Tacoma's complicated ECU. This is as good as it gets.

 

Not only does it give hope, it gives lots of smiles-for-miles.

 

No he didn't....

 

I’ve messaged mat regarding selling my dongled kit. I want to make sure whoever purchased it is able to use it without issue and save some money.

 

I have faith in the 3rd geb tacoma!!!!

 

Well not all the Douches, Seems SavageTRD17 got his tune!Now if he can get it loaded he might just see how great the wait was worth it!

Because none of the other reviews and testimonies can help you determine that

 

Well twin turbos have released and a a super charger. Also Matt released a otto only cycle which literally made this truck into a tuck a d also you get 19mpg with it. Hmm what else.. well if you are reading this far i guess i can say im just screwin with yah and none of this has happened.

 

Otto only cycle..sounds like it could be something

 

You’re on a roll Dave. I never said the tune wasn’t going to be worth it.

 

…yet

Hopefully one day sooner rather than later

 

After installing 1.04 91oct OV Tune yesterday morning I love what Mat has done to make our trucks properly drive able & fun to drive. I only drove about 20 stop & go miles but a smile was on my face the whole way. The truck idles so smoothly, acceleration is awesome, power is ready & waiting when needed and no more gear hunting. I’ll right a proper review once I get some miles on the tune in the review thread.

Thank you @OVTune Mat

 

To all new people that have flashed your truck, welcome and congratulations!

One thing @OVTune has said many times along with other members that have been here from the start (thank you
guys) that I haven’t seen posted lately is that you have to DRIVE the truck. Not everything is instant. Put some miles on it and it gets better. It’s not only your truck that’s changed but you have to adjust and relearn how to drive it again. It behaves completely different. It’s like getting a new truck.

Sure, there might be some minor quirks or issues but Mat can get them worked out. He’s gone above and beyond with this tune and it keeps getting better. This tune is still new and I’m sure adjustments are tested and tested before they are even mentioned to us. He went and bought a truck to work on and test with.
Yes, we might be anxious but I don’t think we can expect him to be available 24/7. He already had a gig. Add in the Tacoma R&D, packaging & shipping products,replying to emails, moving across the country, and having to travel around the globe for work. Dude needs a break some time. Lol
I personally like that he’s not a big company. It’s a custom tune and feels more personal. I know who’s doing all the work to make my truck better. I know who to contact if I need to.

Thanks @OVTune for everything you’ve done!

 

Got my tune email. Now to get the time to install and drive around

 

Maybe there is hope for a reg file before Monday?

 

Got my 1.04 flash today and drove 80 miles on the freeway. This thing is amazing! Feels like the 4.0L from my 07. Very response.
Dongleless works just fine, though I didn't see a way to make a backup of stock before flashing.

 

Don’t forget!
