Has anyone successfully done a partial unlock and passed smog in California?

all jokes aside, as far as im aware you can use bm3, not ecutek. can you use full features of bm3? can i do map switches and full control of ethanel, etc etc?
Bm3's "CustomROM" isn't available yet for the Supra (on the fly map switching, live flex adjustment, rolling anti-lag). They're currently working out bugs/testing it, and they plan to release before the end of the year according to people who have asked them and reported back here.

It's not a joke. It says exactly what you can and can't do right now with clone vs. unlock.

ECU to Femto, no cloning, partial unlock -> Calibration tunes only

—OR—

ECU to Femto, cloned to spare 2020, full unlock -> FCT
You cannot current write to SWFA with an unlock (well, technically you can, but you need custom firmware which there isn't... yet).

Partial Unlock - Calibration Tunes Only ⬆:

In the context of tuning a car's Electronic Control Unit (DME/ECU), the term "calibration tunes only" refers to the process of modifying or adjusting specific calibration parameters within the ECU to improve the vehicle's performance, fuel efficiency, or drivability. This means that the tuning service being offered focuses on making changes to the ECU's settings, rather than offering a complete custom tune or modifying the car's hardware.

Calibration tunes generally involve adjusting parameters such as air-fuel ratio, ignition timing, and boost levels to optimize the engine's performance. This may be done by a professional tuner or through the use of an aftermarket software that can access and modify the DME/ECU's settings.

Thank you for posting an explanation for the peeps above. It's nice when someone takes the time to help/explain to others instead of posting cryptic, vague "you should know all this by now" replies. 😂

You should all know this by now.
Agreed that any of that have been serious enough to look into it do... but the new guys are just learning and need a basic understanding of terminology at the very least.
With the platform only being a few years old....... 'gonna continue to have lots of newbs for what will feel like a really long time. Get that keyboard warmed up :D
Surely there is a sticky for all of that stuff.....?

thank you sir,

so, on the fly map switching, does that mean through a sequence on the steering wheel? can you still switch maps but with the car turned off?

also with a partial unlock can you do e85/e30/meth? would it flex fuel or youd have to switch maps

You can always flash your tune when ever you want. You will not get flex, but you can get E tunes, you'd flash a different tune based on E content.

👍 You can switch maps with your phone e.g. MHD has a wireless OBD plugin module via wifi, yes sir, car needs to be on.
