Default It's A Miracle.....

After waiting like 6 months for all the parts i order from the 2nd week of Feb After all the back orders, or the 8-12 week build time or gotta wait for the tanker to make it to port & then for it to clear customs, then to be shipped to me, or the supposed right parts turn out to be the wrong parts & then have to reorder parts, you would think i ordered a supercharger or a turbo, & then the installation pains in the a$$ with the car being RWD or having rear wheel steering & i quote the AWD J5 is easier to work on & so on & friggin so on.......

My car is finally complete.... (for now... )

Mods. . .

Vossen Forged VPS-303 wheels

Lexon CF Front lip/ Side Splitters

Skipper CF Front Face plate

J5 Coilovers

Tanabe Exhaust

Tanabe Strut tower bar

AFE/Takedo Air intake

VR Tuned ECU uprade

As far as the exhaust I love it!!!!!!! It sounds great, it compliments the GS as the mature aggressive sport sedan it is....

From the VR specs 21 more HP & more responsive throttle, which i can contest to but as far as Dyno not just yet my friend.... But i can say ive taken off on a couple of fellow Lexus owners, a GS350 F-Sport & an IS350 F-Sport with ease... Def not an 335i ECU turbo upgrade but not a bad Mod to have @ all...
