Default VR Tune??

Vivid Racing says there is a flash unit for ALL Lexus? Is any of this true? I see on their site they have the IS250 and IS350 on the dyno with results of 20HP and 40TQ. I've posted on their blog inquiring about our GS's. I will wait and see the outcome. If anyone else has info it's welcome.

Interesting but I'm very skeptical especially because they say the same unit works on both is250 and 350

If someone buys and confirms I would buy this tune in a heartbeat. Intake, headers, exhaust too lol.

I'm with you on that. ECU crack has been unsuccessful thus far. I ain't to thrilled with nebulous details. Waiting to see if anyone surfaces with measurable results.

Sounds like zero explanation.

I'm skeptical as well. However I know Vivid Racing is an established and very respected tuner so I have to give them the benefit of doubt on this one.* I did a quick search of their site and it looks like they have a version for the GS. Not sure if it's the same thing...
