Default Fuel controller question

Can the HKS Super AFR Fuel Controller for the IS300 be added to the GS300? Power House Racing claims a gain of 10-15 rear wheel HP gain if tuned on properly on a dyno with this.

Unless you are familiar and know what you are doing I would be very careful about adjusting any settings on it as your engine can go kabooom if you are not careful. If you want 10-15HP, I would go with some type of a simple piggyback and/or filter (intake). JMHO.

I've tuned a few Lexus cars and have an AWD dyno with wideband Motec AF meter. It's tricky to tune the GS400 due to the very sensitive and very detonation prone motor. I've always been amazed at how perfect the stock ECU is but yet how bad it gets when you start adding mods. I have seen some cars start detonating with just an intake. Anyway, give me a ring and we can discuss if you like. WHat kind of mods do you have?

Hey Dan - didn't you do a SAFC on your GS? Can you provide some feedback from your tuning, and what mods you have?
