I agree with most your points in regards to reverse engineering and I did not know that about the PS3. Working with PCBA's and SW, accessing test points is no big deal and is done everyday in engineering and contract manufacturers given then don't short anything. If they were to make a permanent fixture, a mechanical assembly with pogo pins and an interface board could have been done, which is something I recommend if they will be doing this process a few hundred times. Writing custom in-house software for RRRacing only to use is actually much cheaper than releasing something for the consumer, hence no DIY at this time, no interface cable and no SW for the consumer i.e. Ecutek and Cobb solutions.
From what I've seen in the community, there was a lot of people interested in a tune. IMO, this was a large engineering task and a lot of risks involved especially if the consequence was a bricked ECU during R&D. I also agree that they are using off-the-shelf SW to disassemble and analyze the binary and review and edit All the air/fuel maps/matrices. Exciting stuff for the community isn't it?

Haha I'd sign an nda just to get my curiosity answered!

For the IS-F owners (particularly the 08-10 MY) that had upgraded their Steering ECU to the revised 11-12 or 13-14 Steering ECU, there was a required calibration process using Techstream to get the new Steering ECU to work correctly.
Would a reflash to the ECU have any impact to the updated calibration of the Steering ECU (lose of revised settings)?

Raising the rev limiter isn't ideal unless you add the oil cooler. At the track I find myself short shifting more often than not to keep operating temperatures down. Running higher limits will only cause the motor to get hotter faster. I'd prefer the tune actually make full power earlier in the power band to save me an extra $700 worth of oil cooler!

I definitely want that higher RPM ..

If an upgraded tune (w/bored TB & raised rev limit) is only 2 - 3 weeks away, & there's only a $100 charge to bore the TB, I'll wait for these upgrades to be offered. Looking forward to viewing dyno plots when posted.
Thanks again Rafi & RR for your continued development. You da man!
