Default VIDEO: 60-130 in my GS430

Not too bad in my opinion, once i'm able to get the 3.76 lsd and the tc in it im pretty sure i'll be able to feel the acceleration in my gut... But this is just with the SRT intake(with ecu tune) and my custom Magnaflow setup... i'm happy with it so far

The traction off is just a habit cuz the only time I switch on ECT is at the red light when I don't like the dumb domestic next to me and Traction control ruins my acceleration... I have the led tails and I haven't looked into fixing the problem yet...

Its a newly expanded freeway by my house and there is about 6 or 7 miles that are just in the middle of no where

I was on the way home from work at like 5am sunday morning (I work at a club) and there is never anyone on the road at that time... and I just happened to have the camera in my car so that's why I made the video... but i'll be sure not to post another video like this again cuz I want to hear about what people think of my car not about all the lights on my dash
