New Here! Just saying hello!
I just got my IS about 3 weeks ago, and finally got around to pming moderators to get my registration fixed. I've been lurking for 3 weeks though 
.
So, like the title says I just got my first IS300 a few weeks ago. It's an '01 with lotsa' goodies on it, and has 98,000 miles. Which I know is a lot for an '01, but it's a toyota, right?
Anyways, I came from an S2k, and ended up wrapping it around a pole over memorial day weekend by being stupid and shifting hard in the middle of a sweeping left. But things have been settled and I'm very happy with my recent purchase:

After the crash:
Now the good stuff! My new IS:
Let me know what you guys think!

Yeah. I actually bought it from a member on my.is (well he was on the forums but I found it through CL). He was a true enthusiast, that's why I was more comfortable buying with all the stuff on it.

The guy who had it before me had it tuned right before he sold it. And running off the wastegate at like 10psi it was making around 250 to the wheels? When I get a turbo timer and boost controller, I'm going to get it retuned. But for 10psi that sounds a little low? Any input?
