FYI

I don't know if you guy's know this that per Joe Z the Intake pipe that he sales for the IS 350 will also fit the GS 350 and he will be announcing it soon. I already orderd one in black....

 

I was actually the first to put the Joe Z intake on my GS350. I've had a Joe Z intake on my previous IS300 for years.

 

I'm second. I've been using it for almost a month.

 

Hey, did you use the one for the IS350 (http://www.l-tunedparts.com/product/?id=2804) ?

 

Timetoy:

Yes the intake pipe for our GS350 is the same as the IS350.

 

Nice intake but will it void the warranty for my engine? because that is my primary concern till it runs out. Then its all on with the modes.

 

I wouldnt be worried or concern about voiding your power train warranty.. You're just changing the pipe and using your stock air box. You are not messing with the MAP fuel sensors. It took me less than 10 minutes to install the pipe. Only tools needed was a 10mm rachet, easy and simple install. Anything wrong with the car, i'll just put the OEM pipe and take it back to the dealership.

 

Anyone w/a 3GS have a dyno sheet to show the gain from the JoeZ pipe ???

 

Yep there's only one. Joe did the install on my GS350. We came to the conclusion the stock piping is the same, the airbox is similar in shape but a little different to accomodate the size of the apron/baffle area of the car.

 

Id be willing to bet maybe .5 to 1.5 hp (pipe alone) . Very hard to make any real gains on modern na motors. THis kind of thing is really more for resonance

 

^ I dunno. Some of the 2IS guys claim 4-6 whp gains on a JoeZ over stock. That's why I'm curious to see if any 3GS owners did dyno runs before/after...

 

Very Correct..

We never did any runs, since just about the same exact engine components were used from the IS350..

Also, fits ALL 06+ GS350 and GS450h.

Quite a few GS members have been running it since December 2007..

Regards,

Joe Z

 

Joe what will it take for you to make one for the the GS460????? We get no love out here. I honestly dont care if it makes .0000000005 hp I just like the sound!

 

What about a GS300? I should have waited and got a GS350

 

How much is the intake?
