Has anyone done the YodaTune on a hybrid? I had a Sprint Booster on my 5th Gen that worked wonders.

I just did the OTT tune on my TRDPro. Wow, the difference is crazy. I didn't like it at first, but now I'm into it. I'm going to do a bit of a write up in the next day or so about it. The net net is it's a lot faster, shifts way better and seems smoother.

Great to hear! Would love to hear more if there are choices you can make for the tune and fuel economy.

From my understanding, it is customizable to a certain extent. I just went with their normal settings and have the ability to adjust in the future. As for MPG, supposedly it allows everything to operate more efficiently and should improve them a bit. I’m not sure yet, but will report back!

Curious as to why you didn't like it at first. Can you explain? I'm considering the tune as well. My main concern was long-term reliability (having assumed Toyota's conservative tune helps with reliability) but in my research I couldn't find data on the OTT ever causing issues and it's successfully been used in a lot of vehicles. It looks promising.

I’ve had it for just about a year and got very used to the way that it drives. I guess the onboard computer learns your driving style and adjusts things accordingly. After I got the flash with the OTT, it drove like a completely different truck and I just wasn’t used to it. Then I took a 2000 mile road trip and started to really enjoy it. It’s definitely quicker in normal setting and much faster in sports setting. All around, it just feels like it shifts better and is way more responsive. It just took me a minute to get used to it.

I wouldn’t really be concerned about reliability, as OTT has been doing these things on Toyotas for years. Plus, if you get it installed through your Toyota dealership, I believe they will ensure that everything stays under warranty…

I went with the Cobb AccessPort and bought it through CamTuning to do a full on custom tune via revisions and I have not been happier. Cam is a very legit fella and super knowledgeable and very responsive. My TRD Pro 4R has never drove better or smoother. The throttle response n power delivery is right now. The shift behavior is smooth and the gains have been phenomenal. I am beyond happy with my Cobb AccessPort n CamTuning behind the screen making my truck what it is today.

They definitely are not installing the OTT tune. Hey @JustDSM can you help here?
HVLA, maybe they aren’t by you, so I’d be careful about the generalization nationwide. My dealership partners with a local person, they installed it and I paid the dealership. If you have any questions, happy to answer.

That isnt the same as a Toyota warranty. If the dealer is doing the install that is on them. Toyota will not be warranting an aftermarket tune.

Well, it seems you're the expert on it. You do you, and I'll take what I have in writing and the transaction I made. I don't remember seeing you there, but maybe I missed ya.

Maybe you dont understand that dealers are independent? Toyota will not be warranting your OTT tune. Your dealer might, but if the motor blows good luck getting them to go out of pocket and you will 100% be getting a used/rebuilt one.

For the record I dont believe your motor will blow. OTT is very reputable and knows what they are doing.
