Default is the IS350 engine shared with any other vehicle in the Toyota lineup?

I detailed my buddy's Rav 4 for him and we were talking about it in general afterwards.

He told me we have the same engine and the hp difference is just b/c the IS350 is tuned differently. I believe he said his car had 268hp

This doesn't sound right to me. Can anyone confirm? thx

No direct injection in his 3.5L or I believe in any Toyota.

It's only shared with the GS350, but no "toyotas". The Camry, Highlander, Sienna, Avalon, ES350, RX350 all use the same basic port injected V6.

EDIT: from wikipedia:
2GR-FSE
2GR-FSE engine in the 2008 Crown

The 2GR-FSE engine used in the Lexus IS, and GS 350, incorporate Toyota's latest D4-S twin injection fuel system. This system combines direct injection with traditional port injection. Using direct injection and port injection simultaneously facilitates more precise mixing of air and fuel under low and medium load conditions for greater efficiency, while high load conditions dictate the use of direct injection alone for maximum power. The 2GR-FSE engine is rated at 309 PS (227 kW; 305 hp) at 6,400 RPM and 38.4 kg·m (377 N·m; 278 ft·lbf) at 4,800 RPM. The engine's service weight is 174 kg.

The 2GR-FSE was on the Ward's 10 Best Engines list for 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009.[1][2][3][4]

Applications:

2006 Toyota Crown Athlete (GRS184)
2006 Lexus GS 350 (GRS191/196)
2006 Lexus GS 450h (GWS191)
2006 Lexus IS 350 & IS 350 C (GSE21)
2008 Toyota Crown Athlete (GRS204)
2008 Toyota Crown Hybrid (GWS204)
2009 Toyota Mark X (GRX133)

Supercharged

In North America:

The IS350 uses the 2GR-FSE, which is shared with the GS350.
The RX350, ES350, Highlander, Venza, Camry, RAV4, Avalon, Sienna, etc. use the 2GR-FE.

It's a similar block design, same bore and stroke, however the big difference is the head design and direct-port injection in the FSE engine. The piston design is very different as well.

So there are quite a few mechanical differences that make up that extra 38hp, but the basic engine proper while not quite the same, is very similar.
