Thumbs up Wow!

This is great news, any ballpark idea on pricing?

Also, does SRT work with any Lexus dealers or authorized auto shops, meaning that I could order a mod and have a local dealer (who knows what they are doing) install it?

Thanks again!

exactly RX300TC, that would be an important thing if Lexus dealers were able to install the parts and support them as well.

Mo,

So do you need any other 'beta testers' for the RX parts?

OK Mohammad:

You got our attention, and now I/we need some details.

1. Price and dates
2. Ease of installation [Do you have simple connectors or cut/splice/solder is needed]
3. Post installation tweaking/adjustment. IN case check engine light comes on...

Also share any research done on the engine, tranny (FWD and AWD) and braking to match with the increased HP of an RX.

Your work on GS is legendary. (GS engine is supposedly bullet proof too).

The installation depends on your particular dealer, there are afew that are OK to do the install, however unfortunately most are still being cautious.

Salim:
1) HFI: $675 - 4-6 weeks
Stage 1 SC: ~$4,250 - 3 months.
Stage 2 SC: ~$5,750 - 3 months.

2) cut/splice/solder is needed

3) No check engine lights should come on.

You will be surprised as to how strong the RX engine is, and the tranny is bullet proof as it is designed to handle in the neighborhood of towing +4,000lbs.

I can't wait to get the our RX to the times of 0-60mph under the 5sec. range, makes me salivate every time I think of the 4WD doing a power launch

Darn :eek:
When making purchase, only if I knew what Muhammad will be offering, I would have bought AWD.

Maybe around Sept, I will go for the air intake mod.

HFI stands for High Flow Intake w/ECU.

The details for the S/C Stage 1 and 2 kits will become available as we get closer to release date.
