Ever heard a lexus sound like a big block muscle car? come in!

Took a quick video of the first actual firing up of my lexus. Open 5" dp for now until I get it over to SP so we can finish.

Sound Performance 3.2liter stroker
GT47-80
custom crane cams (BIG) as you can hear.

We obviously need to tune a bit for the 1600cc injectors

Enjoy

That turbo is ginormous.....its freaken huge!!!!....plus car sounds awesome. Does putting cams in a car make it idle lower, cause it doesnt sound like its idling at around 600-700, more like 400ish.....just a question, i dont know much about cams.

Thank you OLT, lot's of vids to come

I actually have to tune for these huge cams still, and raise the idle up to 1k or so, it's very low right now, so good observation.
