...well and for bigger power increases ...electronics is the way in Japan.....

these are usually moving up into the Us$1000 category modifications ......well it would be if you were in Japan...i guess if you get hold of it in the us maybe 50% more ???

As for the abflug box - there is a web site- and there is an english translated one tooo!!!!

but the product is not featurted there !!!

The most interesting aspect might be that abflug have agents in the US ....who might be able to get hold of the unit for the US.....as regards the Toms unit....i need to ask my friend for more info.....but I know that TOMs is big specialist for celsior.

...oops posted wrong pic with last comment....

....the last pic is the top of the range power increasing units the one from Toms increases output up to 320 ps at 52000 rpm this is 315 horses to you guys !!!! so nearly 25% POWER INCREASE FOR 1ST GENERATION LS400S !!!!!

the 48.0 Kg-m (470 Nm) at 4400rpm is the max torque generated which in my books reads as 347 feet lb !!!!


i think this is a supercharging unit.......

well hope all this is useful comment...and the price in japan is around $1800

regarding the blitz unit........i think that is available in US anyway ??


sorry about the mix up re pics.......and also for the "wonky" scan....from magazine.....

If anyone is interested in seeing all the latest wheels /rims for the celsior in Japan and exhausts with japanese prices....please let me know and I will post on a new thread....

or just interested in seeing what japanese celsior owners have in terms of aftermarket products

Yin

Oh one of the real nice touches in Japan in respect of air suspension is - additional aftermarket computer control unit to select ride height - this is really useful given some of the ground hugging kits / spoilers they run......

Hey Yin just some thoughts,how much can we expect to gain with one of these electronic boxes?

Since the price seems hefty,I hope it is worth it.
