Default IS300 TwinTurbo (56K GO AWAY!!!)

Okay so I just realized that I've had a screen name on this forum for the longest and I hardly post on it. Probably becuase my first Lexus was an IS300 so I stuck to my.is (IS300.net). Well now that I've got 3 Lexus(95 SC400, 01 IS300, and 02 GS300) , I figure its time to branch out. So I guess my first official serious topic on this forum will be on my current project which is wrapping up. So without further delay here are some pics.... (I will be more than willing to answer questions, so ask away)

Before:



After:



I have many many more pics if you all care to see more...she's about 90% done....Questions?

not to much for right now at least....i didn't want to go all out cuz i want to be able to enjoy the car for years to come. I want to always have something to do on it to make it better.....an upgraded tranny would probably be the next thing on the list, yes automatic. Then perhaps USDM turbos. But now that i have a GTE, i guess the sky is the limit

I am using stock IS300 ECU with Emanage Ultimate for now, but in about 1 month once the car is back on the road, ill be swapping the Emanage out for a Haltec F10X.
