Depends on the driver and what curve

JK, but of course.

It's not worth the $20K upgrade. Car is made for comfort, it is nice to have the HP and brakes but who is would buy this car to drive it like it's at the track days.

Great job! I bet the power feels amazing. I never really felt that the LX570 was underpowered, but more power is always better right?

Well done I have considered both of those upgrades for my LX570.

How intrusive is the supercharger noise at cruising speed and a WOT?

Can you please post more exterior pics with the spacers fitted? I am trying to gauge how far out the wheels/tires sit with the 25mm spacers.


Thanks!

very cool!

Can you post up before and after fuel consumption. Have you seen a big difference one way or another?

Any confirmation on the Unichip working well for our cars? On their website they had a stock vs stock+ unichip dyno sheet. I wish there was a bit more aftermarket support for the LX570, atleast an intake system and exhaust.

I would love a vid of it running with some throttle action and a drive by to hear it--maybe even a in-car vid of you getting on it )
