Default My IS300's 1st feature...

www.tunerzine.com approached me to do a shoot and feature on my IS300 ...So I said what the hell. Pics and article came out superb I think. Hope you all enjoy the car as much as I enjoyed putting it together.

Nice writeup and great pics Matt, congrats!

The 'turbo' cover is pretty cool, haven't seen that before!

It dropped 556rwhp on 23lbs with a major boost leak from the manifold. I am looking to re dyno. The car will without a doubt dropm 600+rwhp on boost alone. I just installed the Methanol kit so I can run 22-23lbs on pump gas. Ill post p dyno sheets once done.
Thanks alot guys!
