Just got my truck tuned last night by Adam, if your on on the fence about doing this, I suggest it, it made a night and day difference the way my truck drives now. My only regret is I wish I did the 70,000 miles ago.

Thanks Adam!

Adam flashed KDMax for me this morning, and what a difference it makes. Highly recommend him if you’re in the Denver area!

All I can say is WOW! I had about a 80 mile drive back and It was great on the drive home.

I Could actually use the radar cruise control without it having a panic attack when I hit a small hill. Sat comfortably at 80 most of the way home. HUGE improvement.

I can actually pass people without feeling like I need a mile of space for the truck to figure which gear it wants to be in to accelerate. This really should be how the truck is stock.

OMG so worth it! Had Adam tune mine a few weeks ago. Great guy, definitely knows his stuff. SO SO HAPPY i did this. Went on a camping trip just past Westcliffe Colorado and needless to say it ran so much better. Better gas mileage, less gear hunt, quicker throttle response, i just cant say enough! I hesitated and waited, and now wish i hadnt. Thanks Adam!!

Huge shout out to Adam for coming down to Colorado Springs last night for a tuning event. Super organized and efficient.

I can't speak for the rest of the guys, but I'm thrilled with the way it changed the whole nature of my 6 MT Sport. Smooth power throughout and much better throttle response.

Now... about that accumulator...

Just got my taco home after Adam tuned it with KDMax. Holy hell what a difference that made - all of my major complaints about how the Tacoma drives just melted away.

Adam was quick - got me in and out on my lunch break and he's a super nice guy. If anyone is on the fence about it, you should definitely just do it.

Thanks, Adam!

Adam installed the KDMax tune on my 2021 TRD OFF ROAD about 2 months ago and after extensive driving of 2300 miles since the install, I can say this is worth EVERY $$$ and some of the best $$$'s you will spend on you Tacoma !!!
The shift points smoothed out considerably, the acceleration also showed a considerable gain, the sudden surge in power at 2500 RPM was smoothed out and a fuel mileage gain of 1.7 MPG was achieved.
Adam was a super nice guy and did everything he said he would and the tune did everything he said it would.
an = and next, but more expensive upgrade you can do is CHANGE YOUR GEARING to 4.88 gears. I will put this in another thread, but the tune and the gearing combined is a HUGE improvement. I just added the gearing and purchased both the front a rear 3rd members from ECGS. They use Yukon gears and back everything with a 3 year warranty for $1700 after you return the cores. You will not beat their price or Adams price.
I have "0" affiliation with either company and seldom leave reviews.
I have lifted the truck 3" and added 275-70/R17's to my truck as well. If you are planning on doing these mods and not the tune or gearing it is a BIG MISTAKE. Even on the stock plat form the tune and gearing is a HUGE upgrade!!!
The gas mileage has increased, again, after the gearing change, but, it is to early to put an honest number on it. My estimate is somewhere around 1.5 to 2.0 MPG.

Big ups to @MGMSangTaco!
Got my tune today, Adam was super responsive, professional and friendly and tune was done in like 10 minutes.
My truck feels like a totally different vehicle now, wish I would have done this a long time ago.
If you haven't done this yet, go ahead and do it now and then ask yourself why you didn't do it sooner.
Time to sell my Pedal Commander.

I wanted to give it at least a week so I could actually get a feel for the tune and leave an honest review. And..... I love it! I pulled up to get the tune done on my way back from Breckinridge and Adam had me in and out before my girlfriend could complain one time! Took about 15 minutes. Super cool dude. Easy to talk to and nerd out with and very Knowledgeable. If you’re looking to get a tune done don’t hesitate to work with Adam he’s solid. Thanks again man.

Another shout out to Adam for getting me tuned yet again today (3rd time). This time I was looking for a little less throttle response off the line on my KDMaxx tune and the AGM battery adjustment. Got both done in no time at all and of course, no charge for tune changes after the initial buy in just as he states. Thanks @MGMSangTaco. Good luck on those finals next week!

Big Kudos to Adam and the OV tune!

I reached out to him yesterday after test driving a 2021 OR longbed with Magnuson SC. Truth be told I found the experience with the SC to be underwhelming for a $9K plus upgrade.
I had also been looking at the OV Tune to upgrade the drivability and towing experience on my 2018 Inferno OR.
I literally messaged Adam Sunday morning, chatted for about 20 minutes and decided to let him take my money for an 87 Octane tune. Our schedules worked out and within 45 minutes I was at his place and after about 15 minutes the tune was complete. Adam was prompt and thorough in probing for what I wanted from the tune and explained everything he was doing through the process. The best upgrade to my truck by far.

While the ECU still has some learning to do. I am amazed at after the first 60 miles of driving my MPG improved by about 15% and I was not babying it at all. Running on the highway I noticed right away that it no longer downshifted 2 gears to accelerate and wander between gears to cruise at speed. The truck now uses more of the engine to accelerate and hold speed vs. constantly over down shifting.
So far the driving experience is so much more satisfying and what Toyota should have delivered from the factory!
While the Magnuson SC may have accelerated faster, the OV Tune acceleration was much more linear with smoother shifts.
Couldn’t be happier with the tune and the service Adam provided.

I highly recommend working with Adam - really easy to work with, answered all my questions, and just a good dude! Getting my ECU up to speed and loading Matt's tune took all of 30 minutes and makes a phenomenal difference. The truck just feels so much smoother and operates how it should with the benefit of more power where you want it.

Adam flashed my 2018 TRD OR AT today and man what a difference it makes! It was quick and easy and I highly recommend reaching out to him to get this done.

Thanks a ton man!

RedZeppelin said:

Throwing another review out there for people who might be debating getting the tune. Adam is a stand-up dude and was able to meet up yesterday to get the tune loaded in very short order. Adam clearly explained what tunes could be loaded and what some alternatives were (e.x. MooseDitty's M+W). I have a 2017 DCSB TRDOR, and I went with the OVT 2.0 minus gear locking and enhanced throttle response, and it was pretty noticeable already. What I would call the "lurchiness" of the truck under acceleration has basically disappeared and it feels like the engine runs about 500 rpm below what it used to. It feels like the truck is driving with ECT always on. If anything, I need to retrain myself to not be scared of the accelerator. Haven't gotten a chance to test it on the highway yet but I've got a ski trip this Saturday and I'm excited to put it to the test. A final benefit is that he offers unlimited retunes in the future, which is great since it turns out I live 5 minutes away from him. Thanks again Adam!

whup said:

Night and day difference in my 20 OR/AT. Feels like it's always in ECT, but better; smoother shifting, stays in gear longer, instant throttle response. Man, that was a fun drive home.
Adam is a good guy and very knowledgeable with tuning. Total tune time was about 30 mins and well worth it.

hoosier96 said:

Here's another endorsement for the service that Adam provides. He updated my ECU and installed the 2.0 tune in about 20 minutes. This gave us time to BS and me time to ask a bunch of questions about his truck.... Crazy thing about the about the whole process is that I found out he lives behind me! Hahahaha If you've been on the fence about doing this but did not want to search through 1,000 pages, are not computer literate, or did not want to shell out $700+, Adam is your guy!

Fix14wd said:

I've been wanting to get the vftune for a while now, finally said screw it and contacted Adam. He couldn't have been easier to deal with. Very accommodating, answering questions and providing info as he tunes. Pretty quick process and money well spent.
If you're on the fence about it, at least contact Adam and go from there.

splashflash said:

Got my 17 MT tuned, it's a whole different truck! Spent yesterday evening and all day today running errands and with the weight and mods the truck has it feels like it's lighter than stock when shifting. Thanks again Adam!
