The ecu pinout sheet can be found on the internet and/or library. I found mine in my local library. I have a 400 so my settings/tune will not help you. Fyi, settings are almost never exact for the same car due to some having mods, some not and the overall condition/power output of the engine. I would just have a shop tune it for you. My local dyno shop tuned and dyno'd it for $200...1.5 hrs later. Good luck

^^You are right. In fact bloomslang can make you a custom harness so you dont have to cut off any wires. Its around $300 or less I cant remember.

But anyhow somebody still has to chip-in for the settings for SAFC II. You are right Rock-a-Lex that the settings on every car is different. But down here in dubai nobody is ready to touch a lexus. If i can get the intial settings to get the car started and get it to the shop, they will be more than happy to fine tune it.

Anybody?

I know about the Boomslang, I have the Boomslang PnP harness on my var now for almost 5 years with my Apexi Neo.

Fyi, for the initial setup use 4cyl setting; this is to be used for the V8.

Yes, but you MUST do the initial setup before you turn the car on when everything is connected. Read the manual, the 4cyl piece is just one step from the initial setup. IIRC you turn your key to ACC and go from there with the setup instructions.
