Good grief!
No Charlie Brown, lol, basically what he's saying is that you won't encounter this lean condition seen on the dyno on the the streets. The Tundra's computer system is HIGHLY complicated and does not like dynos. Even by turning the VSC/LSD completely off, there are still nannies at work protecting the engine which freak out by adjusting timing and AFRs. It just gives you the ability to do some nice burnouts and swing the a$$ out. I went through the exact same process with my RX8. It was worse than the Tundra. It would freak out on the dyno and go into limp mode. You would have to disconnect the battery, clear the CEL and reset everything all over again. We tried tuning with an Emanage and the stock ECU would adjust in response to the Emanages settings. The AFRs would be completely screwed and the dyno would read about 20 whp lower that what it should have been. Hopefully, the Flux units will be shipping soon, and then we can do some datalogging while doing some real world driving.
