You guys are forgetting one thing. Perception!!!! I came into the IS from a 350z so I was used to this kind of power. But before the Z all I had ever driven were cheap old cars. Hell the fastest car I had ever driven was a 92 Pontiac Boneville. Then all of a sudden I jumped in a Z and the difference was overwhelming. The Z WAS a beast to me. It WAS ridiculous power. Now imagine jumping from the Pontiac to a IS witch at low end feels so much faster then a Z....
And your assumption on 40ish hp is on 5.5lbs that LMS did so that's already incorrect, granted I haven't dyno'd yet but I'm pretty sure it's more than that at 7.5lbs, might not be much but it's more.

I don't see myself adding FI to my IS, but 300whp sounds good enough for me to get these headers.
I actually see myself adding some
before I ever get a SC.
F-sport intake, PPE headers, Invidia Mid-Pipe, F-Sport exhaust should yield the same as
Stock 265
Intake +5
JoeZ exhaust +15ish
PPE headers +15ish
right?
With a setup like that + , is it possible to reach 350whp on our cars??

I know there's one video of his car vs a jb3 335i but there was something seriously wrong with the IS350 such that it ended up likely being even slower than a stock IS350.
Is there a video with his car pulling like a supercharged IS350 should pull?
I wasn't talking to you LOL and besides there's a bit more you guys don't know about
