I have an 09 IS350 and I'm trying to get a better 0-60 time. Currently running high 5's to low 6's, I know you must turn off TRAC and VSC for better results. When I press and hold the TRAC button for 4 seconds the VSC OFF light won't come on. Just the TRAC OFF light. Does this mean VSC is still on? The best I've managed is a 5.6. But average is around 5.9. Thanks in advance

Car in NORMAL mode (not sport or snow), AC off, Traction off, Press brake and gas at same time revving engine to 2k - then GO!!

after u hold the brake and gas at same time at 2k and then let go off brake, then is it better to completely floor it or no???

DKnight350

Yes, you then floor it as you release the brake. Let us know how it goes.

Thanks guys, how do I know is VSC is off?

Note: I did a run with TRAC off, in D and normal mode and revved 1,500 rpms and got a 5.6, which was my best run. I also had a full tank off gas, two passengers, and it was hot outside. Could these factors affect my time by over a half second? Thanks

yes, ditch the spares (the ones in the seats and the trunk) and about 3/4 of your gas and you should improve that time

isn't it over 100F in AZ atm? that can't be helping

completely turn off traction control.

Yes it was around 100 when I did that run lol. It's hard to find cold weather here in AZ.

I had traction control completely off

You want the fastest 0-60 time?

Try it on a slight incline and you would get some very very good time

Yeah at 100 outside you'll see a decrease in hp for sure. Also with your passengers it's only making it worse. Try again on a cooler day and with no one in the car but yourself.

Lastly, does it matter that much?

Why normal mode and not Sport?
