If this turns out to be legit I might just have to start modding again. I was already planning to lighten the car further this year (job travel schedule dependent)...if not completely gut it. I can only imagine what it would feel like with another 25+ whp and minus a few hundred more pounds.

Here's another shop offering tunes for the isf. That isf had a baseline of 371whp with exhaust and headers (which I find a bit on the low side). After their tune it made close to 400whp. This is all according to the shop and the owner. I'm still waiting for the RR Racing tune since it appears they're throughly testing theirs.

Hes a member on here not sure of the user name though.
Kinda strange that RR Racing has been working on a tune for 4 months and still making it 100%. Then Tuning Tech FS and Vivid throw a F on the dyno for a hour or two and have perfect results. Drivability can't be 100% with no research or knowledge of our vehicles. These guys don't specialize in the ISF.
To me RR Racing is the leader in the ISF and without Rafi, the RR Team, their research, and testing where would the platform be? They are on month 5 of tuning and I'm sure they took the same amount of time to roll out the rest of their products.
Also a dyno dynamics dyno, very easy to manipulate it if you are so inclined. I can't see Lexus detuning the car that much from the factory. Not a chance he gained close to 30whp.

His words sound like mine 3 years ago. I was there during the tuning process. Saw the changes, heard the changes but after weeks of driving and over 1000 miles..I knew something was off and I verified it. Lost power,timing was pulled and almost gave me a heart attack.
