    I assume there is no way to change those executive controls to make it load faster? I'm not the most computer savvy guy lol.

    All the settings for ACIS in 04B04 are identical except for fuel cut stock vs. 2.0. I thought you made some changes to ACIS iirc

    I tried flipping every knob i could think of and it still is slow to launch. I’m sure theres a toggle somewhere but I’m not sure where yet.

    Is it best to adjust each of these values by (10%) to maintain linearity? Would this in fact make the throttle more responsive? Like turning up a pedal commander?

    Yes it's directly like a pedal commander for each gear.

    I would recommend caution on the low values, it's easy to forget how much pedal you apply with these electronic gas pedals. If you really do it linear it's very very touchy.

    You could apply 10 percent across (except don't mod the final / highest value!) And see if you like it.
    Or 5 percent, 20 percent, etc.

    I did this earlier, but may increase the percent to get a little more sensitivity. Around what percent would you say the tip-in for the past performance tunes would be equal to?

    Around 25 percent or so.


    Also I will be completely unavailable from the 10th to 13th.
    Rafael will still be available to assist though.

    @ihatemytruck

    So you're saying increase all values for all gears by 25% except the highest value? I hear tip in and think just the first 1 or two values should be increased.

    For this if you that adjusted the voltage for AGM batteries what did you change phase duty 1 to? I’ve searched seen a couple conflicting answers. Just want to see what mine should look like.

    Oh yea, absolutely! :) watched your videos. You're one of the reasons I purchased the tune from OVTune. And yes, I hit the like button. lol very informative. Thank you. I see that OVTune is following this thread. Hopefully tomorrow i'll have the registration program and can turn another friend of mine on to it. He also has a 3rd gen tacoma. We're heading out to a lake tomorrow afternoon that is about two hours away. Its gonna be awesome to see what this does as far as crazy gear shifting, mpg, etc when towing the boat. Thank you for your comment mikelake77!

    Here's what I'm going to try:

    04B04 Reg Stock THX 33

    Throttle Management Gear 1 shows:
    1.01 up 15%
    1.25 up 20%
    1.88 up 25%
    2.26 up 25%
    3.29 up 25%
    4.31 up 25%
    7.72 up 25%
    11.36 up 25%
    18.18 up 25%
    37.5 up 25%
    59.09 up 25%
    79.56 up 20%
    99.91 left alone
    100 left alone
    100 left alone

    I did this for each gear. Wrote down numbers that were there. Went up by listed percentages.
    I did not do this for S Mode so I can kind of compare the 2. What do you guys, that actually know what your doing, think about this??? I saved the changes. I flash this to my truck, and I make adjustments from there. Right? Key off start, idle, clear AT and LV... just like after flashing a pre-made tune right? That's what this is all about right?

    Ended up getting rid of the Tacoma. Guessing I could sell the OVtune cable to someone, not sure what to do with the virtual machine though. :confused:

    Interesting observation... I opened the 04B04 Reg Stock 33 tune to compare to the other wise same THX tune and see how much diffrent the throttle management settings were. IDENTICAL!!! I thought the THX offered a more "sensitive" throttle? What am I not understanding??

    I modify a different table for THX.
    Those 2D tables that are being talked about right now I did them on previous tunes and people said it was too sensitive.
