But it throws a 'soft' code man, and don't want that. Plus you'd have to put electrical tape or something on both connectors to prevent water and grime to get inside. And zip-tie the loose connector somewhere as well. This way looks cleaner IMO
. I'll have to wait until I take the car on a trip to see if I leave it that way, or put it back to stock.

Re apexi controller - I tend to Sri ve in yellow. Sometimes purple on the highway. If someone pulls next to me at a light, I switch to red and dust them. You'll enjoy it and your frequent trips to the gas station lol

Well it's been raining on & off the last couple of days, but yesterday the roads were Dry for awhile & thought i would drive the RCF up to the Shop (1st drive since i got the Apexi installed) & i was on the phone talking & wasn't really paying attention & when the lite turned green i just TOUCHED the gas pedal & the car jumped & spun the tires & it surprised me at first cause i didn't know if my gas pedal was stuck or what but WOW Guys, i'm telling you the Apexi Controller makes a Difference!

Robert, i was JUST reading on that & was wondering IF there was any difference between the Boost Mode 2 (Purple) compared to the Hi-Throttle (Red). Seems like someone else on here said he keeps his on the Purple Mode all the time. So WHICH one does What the Best in your opinion? I Didn't get it for Eco, i can tell you that Thanks
Thanks
I've had it Fish Tail on me before, but NUTHIN' like it did when i put it in RED like you suggested Now, if you would tell me Which one would you keep your's on if you wanted the Best Performance out of it RED or PURPLE? Thanks

I'm glad it worked out for you!!
It really does do wonders for the RCF. Many RCF owners complained about the car being sluggish and unresponsive at times; however, with this unit, it wakes the car up a bit by affecting the throttle response and improving the acceleration. THe RCF is a heavy car to begin with so anything that can improve responsiveness is a plus!
The unit is small, relatively inexpensive, and fairly simple to install. For around a couple hundred bucks, you get a vast improvement over the factory settings.

Speaking of, I'm trying to find a solid/cheapest source for the Apexi controller. Link to purchase?
EDIT: I couldn't for the life of me find the actual controller on the Apexi site. After finding it on another reseller and cross referencing it, I found it on their site and for a better price than any reseller. Here are the exact parts you need:
SMART Accel Controller 410-A001 1 $166.50
SMART Accel Controller Harness, 2015+ Lexus RC-F 417-A021_11 1 $58.50
