New Product RR Racing ECU Tune

Lexus Champion
Rafi,
Are you able to extend the introductory discount price until after the RR Racing ECU Tune 2.0 is available? I'm interested in making the purchase now but from reading the 2IS ECU Tuning Question Thread, it sounds like the current tune only allows for the 7,000 RPM rev limit to be enabled only when in manual mode though you have plans to revise the tune for the rev limit increase to be enabled when in automatic mode:

As a FYI, the Lotus Evora S, which utilizes the Toyota Camry 2GR-FE motor along with a supercharger, is able to sustain a maximum transient engine speed of 7,200 RPM when in sport mode due to Lotus' ECU tuning. The stock internals of the 2GR motor are unaltered. Maybe that will help to add confidence with the 2GR motor.
If you're able to tune the transmission to better emulate the behavior of the 8-speed transmission of the IS-F, that would be great. Understandably, the shift response time may not be as fast as the IS-F but we are all hoping to have the transmission maintain the selected gear when in manual mode rather than having the transmission downshift or upshift on its own accord. To use the Lotus Evora again as an example, it utilizes a factory 6-speed automatic transmission from the Toyota Camry as an option and with Lotus' tuning, they were able to tune the auto transmission to allow the driver to shift gears manually. I only know all this because I'm currently in the market for an Evora S.

Hi all, yes later today we will add the 7200 rpm redline option.
thanks for the input!

Can you provide an IS350 ECU removal tutorial similar to the one found on the IS-F forum?
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...procedure.html
This would greatly help to prevent possible damage to the wire harness or the ECU itself.

What a time to be an 2IS owner, I am very excited about this news, the only thing I see left is getting the paddle shifters to work closer to how the ISF's do. I understand that the friction material and transmission itself might not be up to the task of offering us the same quick shift speeds as the ISF though if we could get functional paddle shifters that would be amazing ~15whp/15tq gain + paddles that work = one hell of a fun IS350...I am curious to know what the gains would be with PPE headers and the tune; I am sure we will know soon enough.

We are curious too. We will soon have some PPE headers in stock for the IS350, so if anyone local is interested, we can work a deal for headers, installation, and tune.

I spent this evening carefully removing the ECU from the engine bay and it has been packaged and shipped by FedEx. Now my IS350 is a giant paperweight until I receive the ECU back.
Hopefully, I'll have the tuned ECU installed by mid-next week and I'll provide my initial impressions of this long awaited upgrade.
