Possibility of Hybrid Tacoma aftermarket tune?

[LuckyMonkey]

Is there any possibility of an aftermarket tune with a hybrid engine?
A bump in power, and gas mileage could be achieved.

I don't know how they work together in this sense and I don't remember seeing anything about tuning other vehicles that are hybrid.

JB4 Probably not for MPG.. 2023 Sequoia is listed and only comes in Hybrid.

I wouldn’t be surprised if it would void your warranty.

Plug and play, do take it out before service. But it f the engine blows I’m sure they would find something in the ECU! So yeah I’d plan on losing the warranty!

Autoblog had an article about how Dodge will write in a code that you can’t erase once it’s tuned. Voided the warranty after the engine failed.

It's some sort of EPROM. Very hard to change unless you know the inner workings of the code

It's a pay to play sort of situation. If you are going to tune it or even add a JB4 it will get recorded on the ECU, as the boost, fuel, etc. will be outside the factory parameters. More and more the manufacturers are taking it out of the hands of the dealers as whether they will warranty a "tuned" vehicle.

depending on what you are using you can always just return it to the stock parameters. If done right they’ll never know.
