Default Lexus Calibration Reader for Performance Tuner

We have built a program that will help us collect the many different calibrations from these models:

2019 and 2020 IS350 3.5L 2GR-FKS
2019 and 2020 GS350 3.5L 2GR-FKS
2020 RC350 3.5L 2GR-FKS
2018+ IS200t/IS300 2.0L Turbo 8AR-FTS
2018+ GS200t/GS300 2.0L Turbo 8AR-FTS
2018+ RC200t/IRC300 2.0L Turbo 8AR-FTS
2018+ NX200t/NX300 2.0L Turbo 8AR-FTS
2015+ RX200t/RX300 2.0L Turbo 8AR-FTS

Instead of having to send your engine control module off to have it read. We will send you a cable and the software to do it yourself. We are doing this in preparation of the release of our nGauge performance tuner and software for the 2GR-FKS and 8AR-FTS platforms. Anyone who participates will get 25% their nGauge purchase.

It reads the calibration from your engine computer. We need to collect all the different year model versions prior to releasing our performance tuner.

I understand you want to read people's ECUs so you can make files but the word 'calibration' really doesn't sound correct and is not inspiring enough confidence to want to plug anything into our cars. One calibrates a sensor's output against a known source - are you wishing to copy our factory 'tune' maps?
Nice looking control units BTW, very cool.

The program running on your factory ECU is referred to in the "tuning" community as a calibration. We can call is a "tune" if you want to. The entire program will be retrieved by the software.

Yep fair enough, called a map in my part of the world but that's my ignorance, not yours!

You will need a laptop and internet access. We will provide the software and interface cable.
