Default Tuned!

Well I'm hoping that got your attention. No I haven't found a way to tune the car but have all the companies out there given up or what? Any updates? Toyota locked it down that hard? There has to be someone that can do this.....what's the point of modding the car and we can't even tune??? Sucks!

Not at all likely to happen for a street driven car ever. It needs to interface with CAN and BEAN and the keyless security certificate system. Just not going to happen without someone bribing a Lexus engineer in Japan.

All jokes aside, iCode is Japan has already been doing something with the JDM ECU, I just don't know what....
