What happened to the Locked ECU?
Hey all
What happened to the locked ecu not anymore thread? I was really hoping that we would be able to get access to our ECUs if they had been locked out. Mostly I want to be able return the ecu to stock and work on adjusting it from there.

Well I'd want to know, because I'm planning on buying a Ralliart ECU for my JDM Evo IX, and that ECU is locked. I want to be able to tune what Mitsu's engineers already did, to tweak it a bit more, but it is locked.

Anyway what I was waiting on was figuring out a way to use the ECUFlash program to extract locked roms.. and I think I may have found a way.. I've been testing it for the past 2 weeks.. I need to test on a ralliart locked ECU to confirm that it works on that...

Its a difficult situation... I'm not going to buy the Ralliart ECU unless I can know for sure that I can mod it further myself. If it can't be unlocked and I cant tune it further, I'll get a different ECU or something that does let me.
I just wanted to start out with a good pre-tuned base, rather than start from absolute scratch with a stock ECU.
