YOU GOT MAIL.....

 

mr Suxel.

Just go to the track (when ur done moding) and drop a 12.5, and no one will say anything

 

probably lower

 

Thanks bro. It's really hard to see though. Do you have a clearer list? Beggars can't be choosers, but this beggar is blind.

 

Thanks Doug and Chino, I guess people just forgot what it means to build a car nowadays

I bet you I can drop in the 12s

 

I really do hope you dib into 12s, but my prediction is 13.0-13.1 at best. The reason being, the IS-F has 100 more HP than the 350 and it's running mid-high 12s. We all know the LMS kit is no where near the 100 HP range...

 

But then again, he may be going NOS also

 

Your guess is incorrect, we have here on Club Lexus, one IS350 that ran 12s no FI or nitrous. So me breaking 12s would be on my driving not the car, I am certain the car can perform, but from how it is now, I spin tires on dry land So just getting traction and putting the power to the ground is going to be the hard part.

 

I have high hopes for our IS350s. High 11s!!!!!

 

thats impossible. I am guessing Max power a is350 can put is around the mid 300 whp. with all bolts on and boost. Not even 350 WHP. Most is probably around 330 WHP. Until mazzuri fix the headers then we would be seeing better numbers.

 

The fastest bolt on IS without the supercharger runs 12.7 I think so i'm not sure if that extra 40 or was it 60 to the wheel will make it run 11's?

 

I was being sarcastic!

 

fyi...that car was on race tires plus he took out the front passenger seat...again, SC IS350 will not be faster than an IS-F and IS-f runs mid to high 12's.

 

you'll definitely be in the 12's if you're on race tires and some weight reduction. I don't think there's anything to brag about when you start taking stuff off your car. I'm sure I'd be in the 11s if I take off my headlights, AC, air bags...etc.

but hey...this is the closest we ever got to see any numbers coming out of a SC IS350. props

 

The reason "he" took out the front seat was to compensate for the weight of the 1/2 tank of fuel. Run the car near empty and get creative with other means of weigh reduction (ie..lightweight battery) and front passenger seat wont' have to come out for the same result.

You guys have to keep in mind the biggest factors affecting performance in the 1/4 mile.
I
1. Weather (Cold, low humidity, high pressure is optimum)
2. Weight
3. Gearing (Run lower diameter sticky tires to keep the car in it's sweet spot without requiring an extra shift)

BTW...Any dyno numbers for the S/C kit tested on a dynojet? I haven't seen anything promising out the the S/C kit for the IS350 yet, but for the few kits running around out there it would be cool to see something positive. Right now I'd say N2O would be the way to go for the IS350.
