Has anyone made any progress with this? It's been several months since this was updated.

Maybe this thread. But, it's been several years since folks have been trying to modify the ECU with no success. And the OP is spending the rest of his life in prison in Pennsylvania.

standalone possibles :-

1. ProEFI still being delveloped with D3 Performance AFAIK

2. MoTeC M150 - to be released soon for GT86/FRZ and as you are aware this car uses same fueiing and ignition setup (less number of cylinders off course on frz/gt86) so should port across if developement is undertaken by motec (extra ouputs, stock Canbus / Lin comms) again, interest would need to be shown but Motec certainly want to be onboard the DI control strategy.

3. HyDra EMS - again running on GT86/FRZ after development by Element tuning. Wont port across until next upgrade of hydra becomes available with spare outputs that are required for additional injector drivers. Element Tuning wont devlelop the Canbus/Lins comms though so will be purely swap/racecar type install UNLESS there was sufficent interest for a development program.

People ask me all the time why the Toyota FT86 can be tuned, but the ISF cannot.

This is my response to them:
