seems like hogwash in general, I would be amazed if it works on any car, nevermind a 3gen GS.

PS I just looked this thing up, it seems you are getting one or more of
a) a fancy night light for your feet... note the GS already has ambient light there.
b) OBD override that makes makes your perfectly good MAF sensor act like it is faulty
c) makes your car burn more gas without you pushing more on the accelerator

PS... AHAHAHAHA... http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/LEXUS-PER...item4186eea309
read the last bullet
"Will I feel the improvement right away?
Yes! If you don't feel any increase right away, don't worry. Sometimes, it takes about one week for the vehicle's computer and the P7 unit to align themselves. After that period, you will surely feel the increase in power."

It takes a week now, I guess if you don't drive much it might take a while for ECU to react to screwed up sensor data and adjust trim levels or a CIL light... either that or after a week of lying to yourself you might believe it. What a scam

i agree with blue00.There's no way of increasing power without using more fuel
