From Wrecked M3 to Tuned TRD Pro — My OTT Experience (and why I'll never drive a stock Tacoma again)

[Quez]

Did the tune reduce the transmission “hang” during certain throttle inputs? Or is that just unavoidable with this high stall torque converter transmission?

I can't really speak on that with the hybrid as I haven't had it in too many different situations. I only drove it home from the dealer since I still have the rental for a month, which is a non hybrid.

I can't say I've noticed any "hang" when shifting. I do have a heavy foot though so its not uncommon for the truck to go through the entire gear before shifting when I drive.

Fair enough. Maybe a whiskey throttle solves the issue.

The tune does absolutely change the shift points though so that's a huge plus. Maybe that's why I haven't noticed it. I always recommend the tune. If you're unhappy with it you're always able to get refunded and put back to stock. No harm in trying it out.
