In about 4 months ill be getting a 2011 is250. Only downside to these cars are the low hp. I was looking to buy a chip for the car that doesn't interfere with the warranty, but i was wondering if there's anyone that has chipped their is250 and has any feedback? I heard performance chips dont work for is250's, but i need some feedback. Also if anyone that has a performance chip installed can tell me what kind they have, thanks!

 

yeah.. if you use the search function. they don't exist for our cars.

 

lol save te heartache and money chips like josh said don't work or exsist lol

 

^^^^^^^yeah what he said.


if power is what you want you are better off looking for a 350

 

if you love your car and love performance, then get headers, exhaust, intake, mid-pipe, and some handling mods such as strut bar, sway bar, sport coilovers, etc and enjoy the car for what it is.

if you are more interested in power which is nothing wrong, then look into upgrading to a 350 (or if thats not financially possible) other cars have more hp and are more mod friendly for the same price or less

 

Thanks for the fast responses guys. The car will be a gift from my parents, and the 350 is a lil expensive. Anyways thanks!

 

Yep, not much performance mods can be done to these cars. With the exception of Intake, Exhaust, Headers. Like RVCA said. ^^ Some members with 250's have worked super chargers into their cars but if you got that kinda money you could have rolled with a 350. Regardless of performance mods, they are nice rides put some wheels on it and some suspension

 

^^^^ true!

 

Lol... no good

 

There is a legit working chip for the 200d.

 

if I knew how NOT mod friendly the IS was, I wouldnt have bought mine. BUT i have grown to love the car that doesnt get destroyed by crazy modifications

 

I agree with this all the way up to the "BUT" part lol. Demodding and selling it soon

 

Im going to bump this thread because of everyone else who has made performance chip threads in the last 2 years.

Hey! Theres an ad at the bottom of the screen, lets see what it says!

"$69 car performance chips, 60 hp and 4-7 mpg fuel savings! Easy installation on ALL CARS!"

 

you would think these threads would die after being asked about 200,000x but they wont lol

 

They may have just finished watching fast and furious and had the itch haha
