- In today's video, I get my Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-Road tuned with the Overland Torque Tune (OTT)! It took me a while to finally decide to get a tune, but now that I have it on my truck, I'm super happy! Special thanks to Overland Tailor Tuning, Paul from PNW Tuning, and Quoc from TK-421 Tuning. Without them, I wouldn't have found this tune, and I probably wouldn't have made this video.

Seeing a lot of questions about gas mileage before/after the tune. The reason I did not talk about it in this video was because a few days prior to getting my truck flashed with OTT, I got brand new tires (which adversely affected my gas mileage by about 1-2 MPG in the days leading up to the tune). So because another variable was introduced recently, I didnât want to draw any conclusions. However if youâre curious, I average 17-18MPG currently. Thanks for watching as always! đ
Toyota engineers programmed the engine ECU/transmission to reduce emissions as much as possible and to get max MPGâs. Also lag is encountered when the engine and transmission are talking to each other trying to anticipate what your next move will be with the throttle. Itâs called âForce Valueâ. There is a soft component of AI in the ECU. So every time you drive your Tacoma you are essentially fighting the ECU for control. The tune puts you back in control and the truck will perform more naturally like we use to see before the eco/emission reducing programming from the factory took over.
OTT has made such a difference on my 2021 Off Road. It feels more capable when towing our 16 foot camper in S4 with ECT on. And just as a daily driver the truck has a lot more spirit. Can break it sideways pretty easily now, if I am trying. Best money you can spend on a 3rd gen tacoma for sure is that tune.
I got OTT on my 22 when it was still on paper plates, and about 800 miles, right after the lift went on. Still one of the best things Iâve done.
Iâve had the OTT done on my â19 Tacoma 3.5 Sport model for two months now. I was experiencing the heat hunting issues with the hills in Virginia and the lack of power and terrible throttle response. This OTT tune has awakened my truck thanks to the professional tuner here in Central Virginia who knows what he is doing. I immediately took a test drive with John (the tuner installer) and knew right away that this truck was like a new truck. I highly recommend this tune and with the automatic transmission you can really tell the difference. The manual trans Iâve been told also have great improvements done afterwards also. I know what I am talking about and for the few hundred dollars I spent, it was definitely worth it. And yes, I tried the Pedal Commander first. It just wasnât the right device for me. It only took care of the throttle lag and thatâs it.
How does this affect the longevity and reliability of the vehicle? As well as gas mileage
my only regret was not doing it sooner
I have had the OTT for a couple months now (2021 TRD OR, auto) with level 1 throttle, and it is such an improvement. Doesnât make it a racecar (I didnât expect it to), but the throttle response and smoother acceleration have made me feel much more confident when merging, passing, or pulling in to traffic, and it doesnât shift all the time anymore. If anyone with a Tacoma is on the fence about the tune just do it, you will be glad you did.
Nice video. Iâm planning to get one soon. If you get a bigger tire setup later is it another full charge for the change?
Whatâs the price
Nice video. đ Had our local guy (Paul - Pacific Northwest Tuning) tune our 2020 TRD 4x4 Off Road DC with the OTT performance tune last week. Noticed an immediate difference. No more sluggish starts, improved pedal sensitivity, gear hunting is gone and instant power curve improvement. Turn the ECT on and it rockets out of the gate as well as when I step on it. It's still in the "learning" phase so every day it's a little tighter and more responsive. Terrific investment. This is how the Tacoma should have come from the factory. Can't recommend it enough. đ
Hey girl! Thanks for all of your posts, but specifically this one. It answered some questions I had about my truck and I ended up getting tuned this weekend with Lonestar Yota Tuning. IT IS AWESOME!!
Thank you so much for making this. Been considering it for years, but the forums are just a mess of opinions and vitriol. I needed some straight information, so this is super helpful. Thank you!
Great video on the OTT. It really is a great tune and a great network to find out where the local tuner is.
Just got my OTT from Paul on Sunday. What a huge difference! Thanks for providing the informational video to help me make the final decision.
Got mine a few weeks ago with Q. Super happy with it. Makes me so much more excited every time I drive
Thanks, Chloe, for the informative video and giving the info for Q! He just did my tune, and like you said, very night and day. From the get-go, I felt the difference. No more searching for gears, and the throttle response is immediate! Like you, I too is in San Diego with many hills on my daily driving, and it's nice not to struggle up one.
Thank you for this video. I'm having this tune done next saturday. Never been thrilled with the shift points/hesitation with my tacoma.
Super great video Chloe! Iâm way up in Nor-Cal but I would definitely drive down to So-Cal just to have my 22â TRD off road tuned by that gentleman he seems extremely professional and knowledgeable.
OTT is mind blown! đŻ
