As far as I know there are know legit dyno tuners out there. Your best bet is just sending your ecu out to RR racing or TTFS. Or getting the handheld OBD tool to flash it if you don't feel comfortable with sending out the Ecu

So far RR Racing and TTFS have made tunes for the IS350. OVTuning is currently working on one that could supposedly add 50+hp although no clue as to when it will be released.

I'm honestly waiting on OV Tune to release said tune. They seem to be making some promising progress and I'm kind of glad I held off on tuning for a little longer . It just goes to show that our platform actually has a lot of potential. With time we should all see some very interesting stuff

Wait on OVtuning if you have a 2IS, they seem to be making the most promising results, they are very well regarded in the Mazda world.
They released their flash tune for 3IS on their website but I believe they are still working on it. Check their facebook page, they update it regularly and answer all of your questions.

They seem to be focused more on the rc350/3IS right now but you can order the 2IS reflash https://www.ovtuned.com/collections/...ng-kit-2005-v6

Completely agree. I'm not buying any tune for my car until these guys finish.

Did this happen?!?! I'm looking forward to a transmission tune, our 8 speed shifts slow and I'd like to spritz it up.
