BMW/Supra 2020+ ECU unlock with FEMTO
Our help and technical support articles.
Date :
As every tuner knows, 2020+ BMW and Toyota Supra ECUs are unfortunately locked and unsupported by virtually every flashing tool manufacturer. There is, however, a solution.
Introducing FEMTO EVO
Based in Finland, FEMTO has been providing software solutions for BMW, Mini and Rolls-Royce for some time now. With the 2020+ ECUs being locked, their R&D team has done a fantastic job of finding an unlocking solution.
That's right: you can get these ECUs unlocked through a very simple and safe process. Here is everything you need to know.
Important: FEMTO provides software-only solutions and does not supply any hardware. The OBD to Ethernet cable has to be purchased separately.
