I can’t find anything for a is500? So you have any recommendations for a tune

@AllEyezOnRod 8 месяцев назад

3.0 engine v6 is much better than those upgrades. Wouldn’t it be better to just trade up?

@2slo4u 7 месяцев назад

I think if I started with the v6 motor it'd be a good platform but I like the boost option. I should be close to the power of the v6 with the mods and tune that I have wtih spending less than $1200. I do like the power of the v6 engine though.

@honorview8525 7 месяцев назад

theres no 3L v6 in the 3is only the 2is but the 3L was only available in asia, and also if it wasnt for ecu restriction on the is200t it would easily push 300whp as the engine itself is able to hold up to 484hp and the 6tranmission is the same as the isf so its more then sufficent for the running 300whp. only pros of going for the V6 in the is350 and and is300 awd is that they are proven reliable while making like 260whp

@michaelencarnacion3811 28 дней назад

Hey man, love the video and the mods you recommend. I got a question after the performance mods did you end up doing a dyno tune eventually?

@2slo4u 28 дней назад

Hey thank you! I never did do a dyno to get my real numbers. I know the Lexus will never be a real powerful or race car but the little performance mods that i do have allows the car to open up more and betters the driving experience. That, and I'd pay just to find out a Civic has more power than me 😄

@lamontjuice9327 10 месяцев назад

nice ride... your missing the hps charge pipe and tti motor sports valve spacer! I have the same ride but missing the race chip. Is the Race chip really worth it?

@2slo4u 10 месяцев назад

I've been thinking about the charge pipe but I figure the car won't be driven too fast anyway ..."2slo4u status 😄". The Race Chip makes a huge difference though. I drove with it off for like a week to troubleshoot a Check Engine Light and the car felt so slow. Whether Race Chip or another tune, it definitely wakes the car up.

@timmytfpv7316 10 месяцев назад

Careful with that throttle controller known problems with limp mode or worse gives throttle when you dont want it 😬

@MattyManRC300 9 месяцев назад

its not the throttle controller that gives limp mode, its the piggyback tuner (racechip). I have both and when the throttle controller and racechip are on highest setting, i get limp mode when going too hard. The boost pressure being produced is maxing out the turbo and alerts the ECU. BUT, when throttle controller is on highest setting but racechip is on lowest, there is still considerable power gains and NEVER limp mode in my experience. I've redlined multiple times on each setup just to try and tinker with the settings to find the most optimal one with the best power gains and no limp mode whatsoever.

@timmytfpv7316 9 месяцев назад

@@MattyManRC300?I've had a hell of a time with my racechip piggy back I finally yanked it out. I got tired of watching how I drove it just didn't make sense, i wasnt beating the hell out of it. After all my research I'm eyeing the D3 performance Tune.

@MattyManRC300 8 месяцев назад

@@ginam.165 because your setting is too high. I have tested every single setting on the RaceChip before and the only setting that works perfectly and does not give me "limp mode" or any other issues is between 1-3 or in "Eco" mode. But, ya D3 or JB4 allows way more customization, but I don't think the power gains are as good as the tune from RaceChip or VividRacing.

@eduardodacosta4670 4 месяца назад

Hey man, awesome video! I know you haven't dyno'd it at the time of the video, but have you dyno'd it since? Curious to see if the claimed numbers from RaceChip is close to reality.

@2slo4u 4 месяца назад

Hey thank you! Unfortunately I haven't dyno'd the car yet. I've been curious to dyno it and see the real numbers too so I may have to do that one day. Driving with the tune off and on is a huge difference though. I leave it in Race mode. The throttle controller and tune is the pair that's most important for the is200t for sure.

@AC-if4sz 2 месяца назад

hey man i had a quick question. did u wrap or spray paint the side mirrors? and which brand (wrap or paint) did you use? my current carbon winged style mirrors are getting old and i wanted to spray or wrap the carbon to match it with my white lexus body.

@2slo4u 2 месяца назад

Hey, I plastidippped the whole car and the mirrors got dipped too. Since the mirror caps are pretty small maybe you could spray can paint match it then clear it with some 2k clear.

@LightSport316 8 месяцев назад

My bro I want my turbo to be as loud as yours as far as the spoosh but I’ve heard through many mechanics that’s adding a cold air intake well mess up your turbo and engine, have you experienced any issues on your car ? Such as more wear and tear on filter or more oil changes ? Or any issues at all ? I appreciate your feed back in advance big fan of your car

@2slo4u 8 месяцев назад

Hey I have had no problems at all with me having the car with an intake for about 15k miles now. I do know of the concerns especially with the turbo using a bypass valve and having a MAF sensor, but I personally haven't had any issues at all. I do have the Racechip tune which makes the "blow off valve" noise louder. I don't think you'll run into any problems though.

@2slo4u 9 месяцев назад

I drilled a slit into the oem blank to feed the wires through then its just double sided taped on. It's a much cleaner look and fits perfectly in that area.

@MustafaGT-zn4hn 3 месяца назад

What blow off valve are you using?

@2slo4u 3 месяца назад

No blow off valve or bypass valve. The "bov" noise is coming from the intake

@doubleclutchin6860 Год назад

Do you have a boost controller?

@2slo4u Год назад

I've looked in to it but I believe it connects to the same harness that the Race Chip plugs in to so I'm not sure how that'll work. I think the Race Chip ups the boost a little too.

@doubleclutchin6860 Год назад

@@2slo4u by chance you know how many boost you're running?

@2slo4u Год назад

@@doubleclutchin6860 unfortunately I dont :( . I can't even add an aftermarket boost gauge to the car. It's electronic so the vacuum is different I guess. I tried tapping into different vacuum hoses to see if I could get a reading and nothing. It does to up to a little past 1.5 bar on the oem gauge cluster though. OEM is about 13-15 peak psi I believe.

Did you relocate the auxiliary coolant reservoir to fit the strut tower brace?

@2slo4u 7 месяцев назад

Not a real relocate but you'll have to take off one bolt (If I remember right) and take it off a hose holder for it to be free enough to move out the way of the strut bar

@tman5293 7 месяцев назад

@@2slo4u Do you have any issues with the bar contacting the hood or the engine cover?

@2slo4u 7 месяцев назад

@tman5293 It for sure has contact with the black under hood protection thing. It's not too bad but I can see little rub marks on the strut bar. I don't see anything on the engine cover that indicates rubbing though, although it is pretty tight and if it is rubbing, the strut bar covers it

@lillarry3000 4 месяца назад

Hey dude isn't your intake not getting cold air from the front vent?

@2slo4u 4 месяца назад

This intake actually goes to the turbo so I'm sure the air gets hotter there but then it passes through the intercooler where it'll be cooled down before going into the intake manifold.

@lillarry3000 4 месяца назад

@2slo4u that's true lol I see the intake that pulls air from the front of the car just curious lol

Damn nice ride! I got a Lexus RC 300 with a similar setup (racechip, hps CAI & charge pipe, TTI turbo muffler delete, Go Fast Bits DV+, catback, waiting on downpipe). I love how my car sounds, low boost - turbo flutter, high boost - "psh" sound lol with a spit of pressurized air in between shifts on high boost. I love how clean your caar is though. my dumbass never got ceraamic coating or ppf :( i got some rock chips on my front bumper and hood....

Simple things bring out the fun huh? Thank you though! I really appreciate it!! Did you notice a lot from your chargepipe or mainly noise?

@MattyManRC300 10 месяцев назад

@@2slo4u honestly no change in sound. The biggest changes in sound were from the apexi mid pipe with res delete. Im REALLY looking forward to seeing how the RR Racing downpipe with GESI cats sounds. I dont want to have to remove the downpipe every year for emissions and the smell lol. I have a question for you though. I always keep my racechip on eco mode because putting in on race or sport would cause limp mode. What has your experience been like on race mode all the time? Are you flooring it a lot when you drive? I saw another comment here saying that the throttle controller would do that, but i havent had any issues whatsoever with the throttle controller and racechip on the lowest settings. It definitely is still very fun to drive though lol

@MattyManRC300 10 месяцев назад

@@2slo4u to fully answer your question though, no change in sound or power with the charge pipe. I just want to have it just in case, since it can get pretty hot in the summer here in Colorado, and there are times when I like to go on long drives and go hard, so i don't want any issues with overheating the OEM pipe

@2slo4u 10 месяцев назад

@COMPETlTION I have my throttle controller on "red" mode which is the most sporty setting and I have my race chip on Race mode all the time.
