Good to know! I filled up and the range is 509 kms from the dash. Will monitor and see how this tank goes.

I guess you are going from a IS250 to IS300. It should be pretty sweet with the extra ponies!

It only cost me a nominal amount that I was happy with and could justify with deferred upcoming expenses anyway.

I picked it up last night and headed to NF for a guys night out at the casino and the downer. What a difference in response and smoothness. It's not the HP bump but the TQ bump that makes all the difference.
