Thanks for the link. I like how the direct translation of the Japanese version of English of "Tuning Computer" turns into "CHUNINGUKONPYUTA"

Yea... I know it doesn't work with the US ECU but I just wanted any kinda sign that developers haven't given up on our ECU and Engine.

AFAIK it reflashes the Lexus computer, so it's neither.

But it's been available for a while now, with no indication they're working on one for the US spec ECU.

I dunno if it's fear of a DMCA violation or they just have much harder encryption or what.
