Just got an 03...any cheap mods with high output?
I just got a black 03 IS300. I was wondering if there are any cheap modifications I can make to the car to increase its performace in terms of horsepower. Please list the upgrade and the estimated increase in horsepower.

What about that intake from Swift Racing? Also this is really random but I have noticed that when I shift from 1st to 2nd without having it in nutral for a second it sounds like the gear drops in the rear of the car. It doesnt sound nasty but it makes a really deep clunk sound.

You aren't going to see any large horsepower gains if you go the "cheap" route. Turbo East has a nice sport turbo kit that is relatively inexpensive (as far as turbos for the IS go). That's what I would recommend.

It's the S1 kit.
