    Hello

    I’m new to the forum. That said..
    Looking for experience with tuners, cold air intakes? Has anyone played around with trying to boost HP? Or not so much lag in shifting? Thoughts?

    Ty for any help☺️

    Not sure if the bullydog is out for the 2019 yet, but man it cleans up the shifts a ton

    DAP tune if available, follow that with a BAMuffler & drop-in AER filter

    Hit the Tow/Haul button- will feel like a tune for free$

    Really, it will give you a bit more giddyup.

    As far as air intakes, don't expect much from one on a 2019....more engine sound, but no more power than stock.

    I think your best option if your trying to boost hp is to go with a tune, cai’s dont seem to do much other than increase some air flow and give more sound.

    more than I can list here
    In this situation, unfortunately there is no tune available yet:(

    pedal commander works really well. Along with our bolt on exhaust you’ve got a different truck!!

    Either way give a call for more details.

    OP has a 2019, so OVTune recommendations are kind of pointless as of now.

    I was too so I sold my 2012, bought a 2019 from Sparks, and had them supercharge it. It has more than enough power and shifts like butter.

    Just installed a pedal commander on my 19 Pro and am really impressed with it. I leave it on Sport 2. It's like an always on Tow Haul but still shifts into all gears. Really woke up the 5.7 by simply adjusting throttle response. I already ordered another for my 15 4Runner.
