Default 2nd Round dyno: This time with GS400

SRT said they are game by donating a complete intake system with ECU and CAB for a GS400 to ClubLexus.

Weapon-R said they are game; unforunately, I told Leo it was for a GS430. However, we are gonna change it to a GS400!

Tentative date: Sometime between May 27th and May 31st.

We will independently dyno the GS430 again with SRT, WR and Injen products the following week!

Ethan

Hey Ethan,

Can something be worked out to save the settings on the Apexi, assuming you are still going to use it with the Injen? Even if Apexi just saves them and maybe we could get SAFC with the correct map to use with the Injen in the future it would be worthwhile. Looking forward to round two.

I thought Injen did not make a GS400 intake, or is the new one out?

I have a 98 gs400 and am running a weapon-r intake w/CAB and apex ws exhaust. I would volunteer to dyno it with the weapon-r and the SRT and Injen. Might be interesting to see what the dyno numbers are on these intakes with an exhaust. Let me know if you could use me. I have monday and tuesday May 27th and 28th off and live in Orange County.

PearlPower,

Injen doesn't have the intake out yet for the GS400. However, I will go ahead and settle the debate between Weapon-R vs Swift Racing Technologies Intake for GS400.

As for GS430, I'll do it sometime else during summer time, NOT the following week. Too much stuff going on now.

MrGS400nSoCal, you have PM.

Yea, the Apexi settings would be great...I was told last weekend by a guy who owns a premier tunning shop up here that you wouldn't even take my money to dyno tune the Safc because he said the stock ECU can figure out everything anyways short of forced induction....plus they want $350 to dyno and tune....craziness...I'd like to see what results will come from Apexi...this is going to be done on a GS300 right?

Ok, Weapon-R is in.

They will give ClubLexus CAB, intake and filter. They will lend ClubLexus the ECU.
