Nope. Nothing is impossible...but some within the industry are saying that it'll never happen.

Nope, nothing official or that any of the tuning companies have been able to solve and probably wont be due to the security encryption. It was mentioned that Callaway may be the 1st to get into the ECM with help from GM, but nothing has officially been released on that topic yet. Tadge is still very adamant that the C8 ECM wont be cracked unless GM lets them into the ECM.

Right now nothing; however, Cicio Performance seems to have the best approach in my opinion. They are using a Moetc piggyback ecu to tune the car. They still cannot tune the cam but they are making 700, 900 and 1200 hp packages These are twin turbo builds. You might check out there website and social media as they seem to be leading the way.
