Default Can you tune...

Hey there I have a 200t and I was wondering if you can tune it to beat a 350? Before anyone says why didn’t I get the 350 let’s just say people make mistakes all the time 😅
but anyways what would I need ?

If you search the forum there's a lot of threads about this. But from what I've seen the short answer is no. I've seen posts saying that you can tune the IS300 to get UP TO the power of a 350, so I doubt a 200T can get up there with just a tune.

I’m sure you can with a lot of money. Though I can not confirm for the 200t, standard upgrades for a turbo car would be bigger turbo, injectors, Intercooler, less restrictive exhausts, intake.

Might be able to if you want to lose all reliability...but trying to wring out over 300hp from a small turbo-4 will be difficult.

Contact TTI for a tune. Below are the specs on my 2016 IS200T F-Sport and Dyno numbers. There was a stock 2016 IS350 that had ran on the dyno the day before I went and mine outperformed his.

S-Power down pipe with resonator, charge pipe, turbo muffler delete, Ark Full exhaust, Injen intake, TTI stage 2 tune. 246.74hp and 286.41wtq

is the tti tune really that good? I was kinda on the fence about it I still can’t decide if I should get that or the OV tune. The tti team seem to be working hard on the 200t tune though so I might just go with them
