Yea they kinda just revamped the mod to the next stage as far as this new mod goes! The biggest and best performance mods to get out of our vehicle is Downpipe, FBO exhaust, tune, and intake. These are the practical ingredients to safely run this tune to reap maximum power efficiency. As far as flashing the tune, as long as you backup your original ECU files onto your computer, you have the option to revert them back to factory but as far as the dealership goes, they can do a readout as to find how many times the ECU has been flashed. So there really is no hiding it.

Thanks man! Looking for a downpipe right now, decided PPE catted. I know after reading everything about the PPE catted version that it doesn't throw CEL but any chance it can throw a CEL using the OV Tune?

Thanks everyone!

We are working now on preparing all the files and ECU IDs for support which what has been sent to us so far.
Note please don't forget that option "read" and send us the dumped file.

TCU settings are within that single readout, and both engine and transmission are tuned and will be sent in a single file as well.

​​​​​​​Those are not tacoma specific anymore, more of "toyota - other".. just needs updated.

​​​​​​​Any possibilities on a handheld tuner unit?

p5flash doesn't seem to have the read function though? Just identify, read and clear DTC, and "flash it!"

If yours is an international order we are still working on getting those out, our payment processor requires a bit more involved process for international shipping

I tried downloading p5flash v4 you linked to above, but got a Trojan warning from Windows Defender. The p5flash I downloaded from the Tacoma instructions didn't trigger such a warning. Would you mind sharing a screenshot of p5flash v4? Does it have the read (not Read DTC) function to dump the whole ECU data into a file? The p5flash version I downloaded doesn't seem to have such a function.

Looks like you don't have the latest version (1.2.1). Make sure you followed the instructions on the video

Thanks for replying. I've sent an e-mail asking OV about this, since the instructions they e-mailed for the new dongle-less system didn't specify installing the whole Toyota flash suite. Will update here when I have further info.

Default Super knock

Could this be the reason for the throttle limitation at low rpm and could removing this restriction cause any potential damage?

You don't need the entire flash manager, we've been emailing everyone 1.2.1

Although you technically can use the flash manager, just not any of the tacoma tunes


We've got about 8 new ECUs we are working on support right now for the IS200T. Thanks everyone

Also we want everyone to know it may take a few days for us to build support on files. This isn't like a standard tune where you just copy and paste maps.
We have to dig through the code, find what we need, rewrite the code, and build our new tables.

Oh, well I never got an email for instructions/downloads so I just followed the instructions page on the website.
Just waiting on my registry key now.

We have received everyones stock tune files and are working on them! We expect to start pushing out files to everyone this weekend.
We were also on the dyno last night testing a few other things that will get put into everyones tunes.

Thank you for the patience everyone, we have a ton of new ECUs to add patches to.
