• Welcome to Tacoma3G.com, a free resource for 2016-2023 Toyota Tacoma owners!

    This website is the passion-project of a USMC veteran/mechanic, @Tyler. I created Tacoma3G.com to share my knowledge of this subject with others and to provide like-minded folks with a comfortable space to ask questions and create 'build threads' within our Tacoma Forums. Now, if the format of this website is confusing to navigate for you, or if you're interested in my full mission and T3G's history, check out the Help and About pages.

    Does anyone know of any rear bumper that are BSM compatible?

    2 issues with steel bumpers and BSM 1. the BSM are calibrated to work only when mounted at a very specific angle that comes on the stock bumper mounting locations and they are also supposed to work only through the thin plastic. So putting any metal in front of them will cause inaccuracies or...

    OV Tune in Ohio

    “Butt dyno” I love it most of my clients want just the standard OVtune 2.0 and it’s the main one I stand by because it has been dyno tested and user proven. however I do offer one other performance tune done by K&D tuning called the KDmax performance tune. This tune is awesome and really...

    I mean it is just something that is fairly new in the Tacoma world as it grows in popularity I’m sure it will become easier and more off road shops will offer it. All good things take time. I hear you in rural areas it can be tough. if you are going to do forced induction you will want to tune...

    Tune updates would need to be done in person because I have to plug into your OBD port. Speedo calibrations happen with a small module installed behind the speedo in the dash. once installed you can easily update it yourself if you have a windows pc with a usb port. At this time I don't have...

    In part that is true. This is why I only flash VF tunes that have all been dyno tested and user proven. There are people who make homebrew tunes and those you need to be very careful with. However, if you think about it is almost the same risk you run doing any mod to your truck. Change your...

    you can pay about $750 to DiY buy the software, with the cable, and a tune pack for 1 truck. or you can pay someone (like me) around $250 to do it for you. There are people who do this tune all across the country if you need help finding someone let me know. Edit: or if you are asking about...

    Why do you say it’s a pain in the ass to get? I found the process easy and now that everything is loaded it takes about 5 minutes to flash a truck if that. Editing is complex but that makes sense these new trucks have so many parameters to set. You don’t exactly want someone who hasn’t done...

    1) tunes made by VFtuner will not harm the truck in the long run in any way they build buffers in to ensure the longevity of the truck. That being said there are people out there who make or edit the VF tunes and "open" them up a little so everything is maxed out. even though these tunes say...
