A91 & Recent 2021 Impossible to Tune / ECU manufactured after 2020/6 is locked? [WARNING: NO POLITICS]

Has anyone seen this ?

Damn that's only like $100 USD but I'm holding out for Carbahn's offering with a warranty.

Still holding on to my ass here. Nothing new that I've heard. I got the same story with RKTunes. They can ODB flash, but not Ecutek

So our cars can be tuned but just not with ecutek?

Yeah, but it involves your ECU going to russia.

No lol. They can do it in shop or by email. It's a Canadian company.
I came across it when I was looking for other Supra parts

I'm new to this tuning world so don't know tons about it. I could tune mine but thought it might be good information for those who can't yet.

Sorry, @Mason was talking about the 2021s or any post-06/2020 ECU. They need to go to Russia at this point to get flashed. No one on this side of the pond can do it yet.

What is Park automotive doing then ? It says A90 and A91. Like I said I'm just learning

Then learn! Read through some of the earlier posts in this thread, it's all here and there's a lot of it.. ECUs with a ~June 2020 or newer manufacture date are locked using earlier methods.

A90/A91 is probably part of your confusion as well.

A91 is just a trim level, not 2021 cars. I have a 2021 A90, it cannot be tuned. Most 2021 Supras cannot be tuned, but a few of the early 2021s can.

I've read through all the posts. I know the deal with June 2020 and forward not being able to be tuned yet. What I'm asking is what is Park Automotive doing ? Is it only for June 2020 and previous? They don't mention that. Mine is from June 2019 so would be able to be tuned but was trying to help others

They are probably tuning supras that aren't locked (2020s and some 2021s). If they claim they are tuning locked 2021s they are 99.9% sending your ECU overseas. Trust that when 2021s are tunable w/o mailing your ecu off, there will be a lot of info from multiple reputable sources. Because of the money to be made, not only on the supra but other platforms as well, no one is going to remain quiet when they figure this out.

 

[zrk]

are 99.9% sending

you spelled 100% wrong.

I was leaving room for that ONE time when someone finally figures it out lol

Thanks for clarifying that !
