IS250 Official Dyno thread
i know im still a noob to this site and being a IS250 owner... searched and didnt really see a thread like this.
I recently traded a Z4 BMW and aftermarket products for that car were outragous in price for VERY LITTLE HP/TQ gains.... i found aftermarket products for the Lexus is less than half of the $$$ than the mods for the BMW were.
if you have any mods on your car and did a before/after dyno please post up in here.... what mods it is and your dyno chart. im interested in seeing what this little 200hp lexus is capable of!

I did see that someone bolted on some Headers recently and gained almost 18hp... so any idea what the most you can get out of the car with all bolt-ons and a good tune?

Intake- between 0-5 hp.
Exhaust- 5-7 hp for the legal ones, 8-10 for the illegal ones.
Headers- 15-20 hp, 100% illegal in all 50 states.
And that's it.
So total of, maybe, 35 hp on the best day and failing emissions anywhere in the US... at a cost of around $2500-3000 depending if you do your own work or not.
Versus just spending $3500 or so to have bought a 350 instead with 102 more hp stock.
