Default Does an ECU chip for second gen even exist?

I'm just wondering if a performance ECU chip for the second gen IS250 exists. Want to do something about that lag between first and second gear while in manual mode.

really? does it do anything? I hate how our ECU can't do much on it. But then again there isn't as much aftermarket support compared to the ISF either soo... ya go figure.

its the same on the ISF as well. im sure had these cars had more performance demand somebody wouldve done a stand alone but there isnt sadly enough. you can take a look at any of the 50 threads the ISF guys keep hoping for engine management but it aint happening. it hasnt and im about 99% sure it wont.

there cars basically just are what they are
