Got ya. We wouldn't get that smooth throttle response,but will get that instant torque. I am also hoping the knock value limitation gives us that boost in power.

I think this all comes back to that "30% throttle" issue that was mentioned a while back. Toyota must of added this feature to create their torque curve.
Matt at OV is claiming to have removed the 30% limitation with his tune. I wonder if it's true?

Oh wow! Do you have the data cable to adjust the settings? If so, perhaps try a lower setting like 2 psi. I have done several datalog runs for Terry with my BMS and down-pipe, and we found out that in some instances we got better results from +5 psi than +6 psi .

They did initially find that issue when tuning another member's (Mason) car. IS200TFOWL is the only member i know with the OV tune, but according to him, he expected more. I wish he could give us some actual dyno results.

in theory it can given that all limits are removed so that boost spike can mimic the same effects of an unrestricted throttle

For some reason the data cable is not listed under the Lexus category, but you can get it here.

The most promising results I've seen in this thread was Sheddy's tune he did on the dyno. When they leaned out the top end a bit. I still want to see the lower end richend up a bit.

Proper power/boost testing should be done in 3rd gear and/or 4th gear 2nd gear is not a good idea since your test wont be be long enough to produce realistic results

Off topic, but I installed my Circuit Werks axle back system. Sounds great at WOT and looks awesome.
