Novel recently dynoed one of their Fs. Novel headers,exhaust and tune they put down 488 whp..one of their staff members is coming to LA nov 10th so if your interested in picking his brain or whatever..let me know.
Ill keep u updated. I just talked to novel.im trying not to get too excited .the closer it gets to nov 10 ill let u know where and when we are meeting .
15k for 110whp is a lot of money....and you're still slower than other cars out there. Hennessy has packages that cost 20-25k, that make 700+whp for other cars...then again, some people like/don't like Hennessy stuff.

I was just ballparking a guess... but who knows, it may be that expensive, or even more. I've seen some of those Hennessy packages for Vipers and others that are insanely expensive, but also very productive.... but the Viper is a pure sports car. I'll admit that I'm biased, but I don't see why anyone would drop that kind of money on making an IS-F faster. The car is too heavy with all of the luxury bits, leather and soundproofing (things I like on my daily driver, btw) for me to worry about dropping serious coin for 100whp more. If I wanted all out speed/power, I'd much rather pick up a used Supra or something like that to tinker with and not daily drive.
Still, if someone decides to put out the first 500whp IS-F, I'll definitely follow the thread.
Im just brainstorming here but novel headers plus exhaust are on the car that was dynoed. Im pretty sure the same or higher numbers would be achieved with sikky/ppe, joez/iss with the tune. Looks like ill be the Guinea pig ill ask these andand many more questions on nov 10th. So if my F can be tuned....im guessing it will be around 3 grand cause i already have headers and exhaust.

Please let us know when you speak to him. Im waiting for the PRO EFI project in TX to finish as thats the direction im leaning, but it would be great to see an actual tuning solution using the stock ECM.
