What is EcuFlash?
EcuFlash is a widely used calibration and reflashing tool for supported factory engine control units, allowing you to read, edit, and write ECU data when performing ECU reflashing and tuning work via an OpenPort interface tool or similar. Having access to the current release ensures compatibility with modern operating systems, updated drivers, and the most recent bug fixes.
It is most commonly associated with Mitsubishi, Subaru, and other vehicles that use ECUs supported by open-source flashing definitions and the awesome community sacrifices much of their free time to do this for us all. ECUFlash allows you to extract the original ROM file from the ECU, edit calibration tables such as fuel, ignition timing, boost control, and limiters, then reflash the modified file back to the ECU.
The software itself does not perform tuning automatically. Instead, it provides direct access to the ECU’s calibration data, making it a tool intended for tuners who understand engine management principles and ECU logic, or someone who wants to learn. ECUFlash is typically used alongside:
-
A compatible flashing interface such as a Tactrix OpenPort cable/interface device
-
XML-based definition files that describe the ECU memory structure and tables
-
A tuning or analysis tool such as EvoScan or RomRaider for live data logging

Available downloads:
-
Windows PC installer download | Windows XP/Vista/7/8/10 - Version 1.44.4870
-
macOS installer download | OSX 10.4+ - Version 1.38
NOTE: EcuFlash version 1.38 for Mac OSX is provided for legacy OpenPort 1.3 cable support only. There is currently no EcuFlash support for the OpenPort 2.0 pending necessary OSX driver development. Alternately, EcuFlash 1.44 will work by running parallels on OSX.
Pro Tip: Ensure you are running the latest version of EcuFlash to avoid connection issues, driver conflicts, or unsupported features, expecially if you're using any sort of cloned interface device as older versions of EcuFlash are more prone to bricking your ECU with anything less than a genunine OpenPort interface tool.
