    OVTune VF Tuner | OVTune - Tacoma ECU flash tune options and feedback

    My averages were on the last tank. I went from SF up highway 1 to Jenner and back. My speeds the whole trip was 35-50ish. My plan is to try the 2.0 when final release is out and 4.88s. Hope this works out.

    I have the 1.05 91 base and my mileage sucks. I get on average 12.5-13.5 mpg per tank average.

    Newb question. In 4WD is the ABS and Air Bags disabled? Hate to come off a jump and have the bags deploy or full brake lock sliding down a hill, and have the brake pedal pulsating.

    Where To Buy OEM Style Switches for...

    Im having issues finding a light bar switch that fits the in left lower blank spot. I just installed a hood scoop and bought an aftermarket taco style switch, but it is for the center console spots, which is shorter than the left side (by inverter switch). Anyone know where to get the switch I...

    The speedo reads driveline speed or trans output speed, when a calibrator is installed and calibrated correctly it adjusts the drive line speed to compensate for the different tire sizes. The odometer will read the correct revolutions if the speedo is reading the correct speeds. In other words...

    Anyone have a LEER 100 XR?

    Thanks for posting vid. Cool. I just bought a XR shell but didn't get the windoors. What did you use to rig the pop a lock to the shell glass? I put that on my tailgate, but would be nice to be able to lock the glass at the same time.

    I would venture to guess that the SR harness is terminated at where the LEDs would plug in. Most mfg'ers make one harness and terminate them on vehicles that dont have those options. It would be cost prohibitive to make a variety of harness' for different trim levels. At least thats what I have...

    Im with Andy on this, the key word is "adjusted". So many people lift their trucks and never readjust the lights, that's as bad as someone putting HID's in a reflector housing. I am waiting for my squadron sport amber cornering/fog lights. They will be here Tuesday.

    Dog Crates! Let's see them!

    Late to the gate here but we have 2 dogs and we have a rear seat hammock. It covers the rear seat ant the back of the front seats, they also make door panel covers if that's a concern, I just have nose art prints to clean up periodically. We even have seatbelt harness' that plug into the...

    Thoughts on HID vs LED headlights

    Definitely, will use the wide angle fog lights, not pencil beams. I will actually adjust the lights when I do a lift too.

    Thoughts on HID vs LED headlights

    Depending how the color looks with the high beams, I may look into H9 LEDs for the highs. Im going to go with BD Squadrons Amber fogs eventually.

    Thoughts on HID vs LED headlights

    Thanks for the replies everyone. I just ordered a set of Xenon XTR HID with Phillips 4300k color, they were a little brighter than the regular 5k. . They had a 10% off sale this week. I looked into Morimotos also but Xenon Depot was responsive with info and answered my questions first.

    Thoughts on HID vs LED headlights

    Id like some light feedback from you guys. I appreciate the reviews but I have a couple concerns with available lighting. Past experience I have had HID's in 2 Infinitis an 05 G35 and a 08 FX 35. Both had (albeit factory) HID's have always worked well and in 10 years never had to replace a bulb...
