There was a guy on the MR2 forums who has a boosted 4gr motor on 6psi that put out about 290. I am trying to find the thread since it was a few years ago. Its definitely possible to get close but not with the IS computer though. GR motor swaps are more common with the MR2 cars since they are a direct mate with their RR transmissions
The 2GR is a better swap but i know the 4gr was just a cheaper engine

Once lexus comes out with the 2.0t engine, Im sure everyone would put this V6 turbo, bolt on, wanting to go fast stuff on theback burner and be wanting to go for that instead

They're most likely using a standalone like AEM or one of the other standalone ECUs available on the market.
I'm a former Dyno tuner and have tuned lots of Supras, most of which we're running AEM standalone ECUs. My main expertise was Honda and Mitsubishi. I use to work for Hondata and helped develop the K-Pro ECU from Hondata. I was also one of the first people in the world to turbo-charge the Acura RSX Type-S.

On another note on SAFC-2 - the same engine code 2GR-FSE is also in the old MR2's. Again, gains with bolt-on's yield 20+ hp with the SAFC. Im willing to bet with some dyno pulls that the right tuner, gain can me made with the 3g IS.
Lastly, I have emailed SRT - the have a lot of knowledge with the is300. Im wondering if anyone would be willing to experiment there.
