Vlog 89 - Lexus GX470 Gets MBP Tuned! (Dobonsons HQ Meetup)

[@tannertrites3388]

Hey man love your videos. I was wondering how your Tesla screen was holding up. I’ve wanted to put one in mine for a while, but the amount of mix reviews online had me worried. Do you think I should make the switch? I have the Nav version of a 2003.

[@jasonmears4393]

Are you still happy with your tune? Does your gx perform better... how about mpg?

[@Awesomoto]

Absolutely still happy! It drives much smoother now and a 2mpg increase.

[@jasonmears4393]

@@Awesomoto sounds good. Might have to get one.

[@jasonmears4393]

Do you have a link to order this type of tune?

[@Awesomoto]

@@jasonmears4393 I got this tune in person in the video. I believe you send your ECU to him and then he ships it back tuned.

[@jasonmears4393]

@@Awesomoto ok, thanks.

[@MikeCook2000]

Which tune did you end up getting?

[@antoinemuller2903]

What was your process on deciding to do the premium fuel tune vs regular?

[@Awesomoto]

Premium fuel burns slower and in general cleaner. The main reason is that Phil recommended the premium tune as it is a more noticeable difference in performance.

[@theNiiicest]

how much does his tunes go for? Im debating on doing this too

[@theNiiicest]

nvm, didnt get to the part where you said the price lol

[@Awesomoto]

Great question! I paid $425 at the event for the tune.

[@grokfu]

Dyno numbers by chance?

[@3urbia391]

These tunes is not mainly a performance tune. It is more to better drivability when adding weight and bigger tires. Just because a company has a dyno sheet means anything. If I hit performance headers I def would run a dyno with the tune and that when it really matters

[@Awesomoto]

I wish I knew a shop local to have gotten before dyno numbers, but I could do an after…not sure how much value it has if we don’t have the before to compare. I guess if someone else has stock numbers we could roughly compare.
