Default Center Console Secret Door

Has anyone opened up the secret door in the center console carpet yet? Is that where Lexus is stashing the extra 50 hp we all want?

If you look at the bottom of the center console you should see a square of carpet that can he removed. I'm assuming it leads to some electronics or sensors or something.
