    Hi! The price I mentioned in the video was an estimate just from chatter I heard and sounds like from you guys, it’s likely not as much as I stated. Reach out to your local tuner though! Thanks for watching 😊

    I had the OTT tune done shortly after you had it done. Your video was the final determining factor in my decision to have it done. Very happy with the tune. The truck does drive so much better. When I first bought my 21 DCLB OR I was disappointed with the shifting. Huge improvement, highly recommended getting it done.

    Paul did my OTT a little over two years ago on my manual 2019 TRD Off-road and it's by far worth the price ($500.) The difference is stunning especially when towing our 4,000lbs travel trailer. The gas mileage is 1 to 1.5 gallons better than stock however there's no difference in mileage when not towing. The power and feel difference is incredible and going up those long uphill grades without struggling brings a great big smile to my face. A big shout out to you for helping me feel better about getting it done. Thank you!

    I got the OTT tune on my 22 TRD Sport a couple of months ago. I have been really enjoying how much better the truck drives since getting it installed. The biggest improvement that I noticed however is in how my truck tows. I have a nuCamp T@b 320 that I bought new in December of last year. The Taco did a pretty good job in towing before the tune but the gear hunting was a pain. This past weekend I took the trailer from North Carolina up to a T@b get together in Pennsylvania and OMG!! The truck drove so much better! It was a huge difference. The sustained climbing was so much better. I had the transmission in S4 and had the ECT on (the next OTT setting from mild). It honestly made me so happy. I did get about 3 MPG's better than usual but I also tried using 89 octane fuel as well. Hard to say which made the difference more.

    Hey Chloe, I have had mine for a year now. In Tennessee, we have Big Dog Tuners who are licensed to perform this tune. I have to admit that I was a bit scared of this process but after it was done I was so amazed at how my Taco reacted to it. Fixed everything. Now ECT is the spicey tune and it is what I use off road. The normal mode is medium. Thanks!😊

  • @techsocial626
    @techsocial626 Місяць тому +1

    Now knowing about the emissions certification, this makes me feel better and more open to the idea of getting a tune. But, I already re geared so it may not be worth it. Though, I've heard people having both the 5.29 re gear along with the tune speak majestically about it. Nice review overall. I'd like to see more reviews comparing re gear vs. tuning, or combination, and how it interacts with using the truck to tow and not just regular daily driving. That's mostly what I use my Taco for nowadays...

    I hear you on the low power performance , In Dec of 2009 I traded my 2003 sierra denali in for a 2010 Tacoma trd sport , it was like getting off a Gsxr 1000 and onto a moped , after 14 years and 75,000 miles I’m used to it now but if my 2nd gen had the obnoxious gear hunting I’d definately get the tune , when the dealer had my truck a few years back to do the frame swap they gave me a 2017 Tacoma as a loaner and the gear hunting drove me nuts , I’m currently trying to talk my friend who just bought a 3rd gen into getting the tune,.. thanks for the review Chloe !

    Fuel economy, how does that affect it, I know your truck is modified so it is down from the factory numbers. The factory tune is designed to get a certain fuel number, that is why it is trying to down shift, also extra wear and tear on transmission when it holds shifts in lower gears longer?

    • @chrislee4946
      @chrislee4946 Місяць тому +1

      @@amauryevra8683in my experience if you’re looking for fuel economy with this tune it doesn’t improve it. Holding gears longer is not gonna have much of an effect on gears. It may cause the engine to work a little harder since you’re revving the rpm’s a little higher but imo it’s nothing to worry about.. change your oil every 5k-7500 miles then it shouldn’t be anything it can’t handle nor be anything worth worrying about. I’m now at 193k miles on my 2017 trd sport that I purchased new and have had the tune since 118k miles and have had zero issues. I do however do my own maintenance and tend to change every service interval at the severe driving intervals. Pcv valve, oil, atf, gear oil, air filter, etc

    I am pleased with the performance of my '21 TRD Sport after the OTT tune. I have the Light throttle. I have recently decided that I will be taking it easy on the throttle, especially after seeing the tachometer go well into red territory. That has to be hard on the main bearings and wrist pins. I will definitely stick to 5,000 mile oil change intervals.
    Does the tune affect fuel economy? Depends on how heavy your foot is...the temptation to get frisky is more readily available.

    My truck is a 21 and I know your truck is a little older than mine. I wonder if Toyota changed the mapping in the software on the newer trucks because mine does not hunt gears aggressively. If I hit a hill, it may shift one gear down but it will hold that until I get to the top of the hill, just like most vehicles will. Also, newer models that I have driven seem just fine.

  • @Cork1958
    @Cork1958 Місяць тому

    I have a 2023 Tacoma TRD Sport premium (manual transmission) and I have thought about a tune and have done some reading on the subject. I have come to the conclusion to avoid it until my 7 year power train warranty is up. If the engine blows and Toyota decides to investigate the cause closely and I have a 3rd party tune , I believe it would be there prerogative to void the warranty. Despite what most people say , Toyota can determine (using something similar to a CRC (Circular Redundancy Check)) if a tune was applied. I would only get in under warranty if tuner companies , such as OTT , had a partnership or agreement with Toyota. If they were only flashing preset constants , then fine , but they are changing the underlying algorithms that control the operation of the vehicle. If they are charging 600 in the US , then it would be approx. 800 or more here it Canada , a bit steep for my wallet.

    • @scottgulkin
      @scottgulkin Місяць тому +2

      To answer your question yes it does while tuned. While tuned your checksum can be checked and it will not report to stock. I checked with obd9 on a friends tune truck and is why I stayed stock. As mentioned in this video if the checksum doesn't report stock or a CARB approved tune you will fail smog in some states. Ppl in Colorado have failed smog for this reason since they're checking the checksum in CO and other states like CA. Thus, I assure you Toyota will check this if you have a major drivetrain claim. Now if you flash back to stock you should report back to a stock checksum and probably sneak through, but I don't have the dough to risk it.

    You’ll hear a lot of people say, “the tune isn’t detectable”. Yes it is. That’s why they had to smog certify it, because they can see it’s tuned. You can bet if you have a major issue with your motor or transmission, getting denied warranty coverage is a very real possibility. If you’re not willing or capable of buying a used motor and putting it in yourself, you probably shouldn’t tune. You might as well buy a new truck because paying Toyota for a new motor will cost a fortune.
