Drew...a word of advice think of G.I.G.O. (garbage in garbage out). Do not put cheap stuff like this in your lexus it will pose as a problem either right away or down the road. All of these little chip boxes on Ebay consist of just a resistor inside which alters the MAF signal and supposedly makes the car think colder air is coming in. It's a BS way of traying to gain 1-2HP and can be potentially harmful. Stay away from these products; do yourself and your car a favor.

It sounded like an infomercial, right? So, yeah I was just kidding 
However; sometimes a resistor can make a car gain some HP, and in most cases it is more than 2 or 3hp. So when you consider the cost of a resistor vs HP gains, sometimes it's worth to do. However; I don't think anyone has taken a chance and time to see if some of this methods will work on our cars. Personally, I would not risk it without having monitoring systems in the car to check how things are running. With that said, I would not buy any of those products.
If you have a 300 there are some piggy back tunning devices for your car, but if you have a 4xx, then the only piggy back system would be a safc.
