Tuners for 2019+ model year

I've known forever that we haven't been able to tune 2019+ model years, but I did some researching and saw this from VR.

vr tuned ecu flash tune toyota tundra 5.7l v8 381hp 2018-2021

Does anyone have experience with this tuner?

HP Tuner has been available for 2019s+ about 2 years.

 

<scratching my head>

what variables get tuned in a n/a situation?

does it make it leaner at the top?

knowing you only gain a smidge of hp, where is this hp hiding?

knowing these 5.7’s pull timing all over the place, how is that mitigated?

i gots to know

 

Not much power gained when I had my ‘18 5.7 tuned on a dyno. A whopping 7 hp and 17 lb ft of torque. But, my peak torque is now at 2,900 rpm instead of closer to 3,800. That just means that the power is considerably more useable now. Night and day difference when towing!

Otherwise, there are huge gains to be had in the transmission control. These are more significant than the power gains…

 

I did a quick peek on HP’s site. Up to ‘18 specifically says “including transmission”. ‘19 and up doesn’t mention transmission at all.

Can someone confirm if the HP software supports transmission tuning on ‘19-‘21?

 

Ott did my tune and specifically worked on shifts using hpt ,I have a 19

 

Peitz Performance did my Trans via HPT. '20 1794 4wd

 

Good to hear. It’s not clear on HP’s site.
