c0wboy on here does regrinds, maybe he can chime in or you can pm him. I'm not sure if the specs Joker posted is even right for the Lexus, we are talking about two different cars/motors here. One with vvti and his is not. Just because it works on his motor doesn't mean it will work to our advantage. "a cam is not just a cam"
