I might be wrong on this, and I'm not suggesting that it's certain that they'll make it tunable.. but I wouldn't count out the possibility.
You really haven't been dealing with Toyota cars for long have you?

Soon we'll need a proper ECU tuning forum...

Have any aftermarket companies boldy stepped up to claim they want to make a harness for the FT-86? Haven't heard anything, but I'm sure they're out there.
Yo. Wolf, Haltech & Greddy/Trust

Also have experience with engine swaps, suspension work & brakes. I just ok at welding, but I plan to take some courses and get certified as well as learning composites. Going to take the course at ECU university to see if it helps me improve my tuning at some point next year.

I'm actually working on an aftermarket ECU solution of my own, but it's taking a lot longer than I had anticipated. Was going to present it as my Thesis, but ended up doing something else. Whenever it's ready, be sure there will be a harness and plug and play box for the 86.

My brother and I are working towards opening a Garage for performance and race cars, but that is a little further down the line (6 years or so) and we do plan to produce all manner of parts for Toyota/Nissan/BMWs.

Can't promise that I'd have anything ready for the 86 soon, because I have a lot going on right now in my main area of work/business, but in the future... who knows...
