Default Mods for 2000 GS400 (425 rwhp) ????

Hello gang,

I need some direction. I am in the mood to go faster, the problem is I have no idea where to start.

What mods can I make to my Gs400? Its bone stock with 55k on it.

Thanks in advance

Forced induction is probably your only choice, unless you wanna get crazy and get a big block motor (which no one has even attempted......................yet)

At 425 rwhp, you're probably gonna need to beef up the tranny.

If you keep it around 375 - 400 and don't do a lot of hard core standing starts, the tranny should hold together well.

Standard disclaimer - Your actual results may differ.

Do an advanced search for turbo, SC and nitrous and you will find years of info. Enter screen names such as TTurbopimp, davegs4, morris, klynchygs, pearlpower and roenick7 and you'll have a wealth of information.


These are the names that come to mind at the blink of an eye, but others will chime in as well with additional names.
