working on getting a running video of it sent to me by andy. here are some more pics (not fully finished but everything mounted up). Also as my luck would have it i love my job so much they decided to sent me to an island for another two weeks to teach martial arts and jungle warfare (i have been home in miami for 24hrs and already had to book my flight out of here) so im looking at picking it up on the 19-21 in march and not next weekend now.

God that's one ugly *** engine bay. At least it's got the goods though. Hopefully it'll output some decent numbers so you can show everyone the dyno sheet and your rear bumper instead of the engine compartment...
Thanks for the pics BTW

No prob on some pics, but man you guys are cruel its not finished the belt isnt even on thats just everything bolted up. wanted you guys to see. the final result will be very tidy (go look at the twin turbo setup they fixed and you will see).

It's not necessarily an insult to elite, but more so of Lexus. I could take off my covers and say the same thing about the engine bay. Another way of saying what I'm trying to say is, it's not elites fault Lexus couldn't/didn't do a wire tuck on our engines.

Hmmmm. Not much room in there for headers. No wonder they're not even close to equal length. Very unfortunate.
Make sure they get the front subframe aligned nicely since it's completely removed right now. Subframe alignment seems to be problematic for the 2IS cars.

And in case anyone is wondering, yes that is a true cold air intake, and they will be releasing one soon for the isf that will go to the regular intake manifold.
