I was interested in a charge pipe before, but the install looked difficult.

Anyone have a DIY for it?

Can't stress enough DON'T TRUST ORANGE VIRUS TUNE AKA VF Tuner.

Lexus 2.0L Turbo Charge Pipe and Muffler Delete - D3 Performance here it is! I already have a HPS charge pipe. I wonder if this plus the muffler delete will be significantly better...

Tempting! I already have a TTi Turbo Muffler Delete.

I need to find a DIY for the charge pipe to see if this is something I can do in my garage lol.

Did your TTi turbo muffler delete help performance?

I installed the HPS TMD and I think I noticed a difference in the higher RPMs. I installed the intake tube at the same time and then the charge pipe a week later.

The charge pipe took about 4 hours but not terribly difficult. I bought super long 10 and 12mm sockets to help with the hose clamp that connects to the intercooler, that took the most time of anything, not counting the nut I dropped onto the belly pan.

I'll be finishing up a water injection setup using the port on the new charge pipe. I can't say I noticed an incremental difference from the charge pipe but the main reason for that swap was to not have a two piece plastic pipe that can break under higher boost and to have the easy water/meth port.

Default Gfb vta

Does anyone tried the VTA from GFB on IS200T 2016??

I installed it on my car but I am not sure if it improves my car performance or not....


I feel that I get turbo lag again



Before I installed it


I was happy with my car but now I am not sure 😅


If anybody have any ideas or issues with the same product please share with us

I wouldn't have had any expectation that it would provide a tangible performance benefit on this setup. What's really helped for holding boost has been some combination of the HPS charge pipe, turbo muffler delete and intake tube. Not sure which one since I installed them nearly at the same time but the D3 Tune now nails 19psi and dosen't fade like it used to.

Hmmmm... something seems amiss though, your "after tuned" numbers look more like stock numbers Torque is in Nm, yeah?. Any parts installed? Taking a look at first few posts of this thread may shed more light on your numbers. How much did you pay for your tune?

It's doable, just annoying

I installed an FTP charge pipe and most of the struggle is literally getting into this area behind the engine and the firewall, very irritating layout for the charge pipe

Those who've installed a charge pipe, care to share any tools that will make life easier? Planning to do this alone in my apartment's parking lot, which is not very well-ventilated, so would appreciate it if anything can make things easier.. thanks.
