To answer your concern, Yes my car is Lexus maintained on its periodically maintance periods. Oil change every 2500miles 93octane all the time. And just performed last month its 90,000 mile maintenance, and spark plug change as well. I'm very strick when it come to maintanance, your car is only as good as long as you keep up with its maint.

In that case there is no reason why your car won't perform better than a stock model.

since my 2016 is300 is only 1 month old how does this work with my warranty? It is possible to quickly detune then retune for a visit to the dealer? maybe via a piggyback device?

Shoot us a PM. You have the option to come in person or send your ecu.

I can confirm but as far as I understand after we initially tune you, all future tunes/flashes can be done through the obd II port. So I do not see it being a issue to flash back to your stock file if you wish.

I have a feeling in the next month there will be huge progress and better understanding of what we can do. We are just getting started. Our goal is to tune directly through the obd II and not remove the ecu

2006 IS350 RWD Auto Trans 112k Bone Stock

We just completed this stock IS350 earlier today with 112k miles. We are pleased with the results on a stock vehicle with over 100k miles. We will continue to share our results as we continue tuning.

Not bad.. 12whp and 10lb-ft is definitely a decent gain for a 3.5 V6. About what I was expecting too. You guys should definitely try and tune the transmission as well as I'm sure it would draw a lot more customers to you.

Would this tune work with a car that's modded? I currently have an Axelback and soon a mid pipe and intake within the next month. Also if i ever disconnect my battery from my car, does the car still keep the tune? I'm still new to this lol just trying to make sure my car won't flash itself back to stock.

We can raise the rev limit and we are working on the transmission tune. We just need some time

We are working on it : Of course we will share all our advancements as we move forward.

A mooded IS350 should by all means do better as long as it has no issues.

Yes it will work on a car that is modded. All our tunes are custom. We do not do a one size fits all tune. Good question for those who are not familiar with tuning, no disconnecting your battery will not flash you back to stock. It does not work like that.

How much different would the tuning be on a 2IS 350 and a 3IS 350?

It wouldn't be an issue. We can tune both, we just haven't tuned a 3IS 350 yet.
