Those of who are familiar with the Mazda RX-7 are almost certain to know the name of Peter Farrell. Well, thanks to his extensive 15+ year racing history, and exceptional tuning knowledge with cars, he is tackling the Lexus IS300. As a project car, PFS Supercars will add. . .

*Performance SS Sport Exhaust.
*Cool Charge Air Induction.
*Single Turbo upgrade with variable packages available.
*Many more modifications to follow soon.

Well, Sasha, thanks to the small size of the engine compartment in the IS300, in my estimation the kit should port directly over into the GS3, however there are many things to consider when doing an extensive 500+ hp turbo kit. I guess we'll have to wait and see what happens. I'll let everyone know if I find out anything else before anyone else does!!

All great ideas & hopes start with dreams! I'm sure given enough time, plenty of schooling, and perhaps R&D, you can do anything!!!

Well sounds like something promising, but given the projected 500HP, I imagine that the boost will be pretty high, putting some major strain on the engine right? Also, what's the estimated price for this turbo kit?

That means some big league tuners are beginning IS 300 projects.

This is a good time to own an IS and the coming months will reveal numerous forced induction systems by very reputable companies.
