    Stock; TBD in future when it's paid off
    2012 Tundra Crewmax. Pretty stock except for a custom air intake. Considering a plug-and-play chip or a Dyno tune. Looking for engine efficiency and longevity as opposed to Performance. Advice, information, anything I should consider? Bee good, Conor

    I would just leave it stock if you’re not looking for any specific gains.
    That said HPTuners is a reputable company and has software for the Toyota 5.7. They’re having a Live Training on IG at 5pm PST tonight if you’re interested.

    I installed a DAP tune in my stock 2007 @ 281,000 miles, the tune breathed new life into the old truck and increased it's drive-ability by enhancing it's throttle response and smoother operation of the transmission. I added a cat-back and less restrictive air filter after the tune, and it adjusted to these changes extracting the most from both mods.

    Not nearly enough room here!
    Yep, I agree. Mine's totally stock, except for 10" BA Exhaust, IPT Valve Body with Shift Kit and TRD CAI :D
