Im hearing that Lexus Japan plans to officially announced the 2010 planned release of a new IS-F Turbo. Reports are that it may be in the 500hp range. News is saying later today (early for them) around 8PM Eastern.

wow..big news. can you post the source?

Now that is a good news.

Thanks for the post, my dream has honestly become bigger. Now the IS-F owners will be upset (LOL). Hopefully you can post a link.

Hint: April 1st, 2008

Hahaha....

And to think I had my heart set on a Turbo IS-F with a price tag probably reaching 100k (LOL)!!!!

Just consider if there will be a turbo model, that also means there will be a turbo kit for the regular one; or maybe even bigger boost kit than the o/e.

If.. if... if...

im sure whether it comes in to production or not...manufacturers are already in process of fabricating a turbo...IF NOT completed with a concept version already.

I guarantee it wouldn't be $100k, heh. If the current ISF is $50-60k, a turbo one would maybe be $70-75k, depending on other changes.

And I'm just glad it's now officially 12:00am PDT, April 2nd.

Turbo and only around 500hp? lol.

No Turbo but Tom's Racing has a Compressor kit for IS, GS, LS and SC

Anyone have this yet?

I believe Josephdoc on our 2nd IS forum has it installed...he said he was the only one in the US to have one...another one is in the UK and several are in Japan...hehe
