Thumbs up

Hey Mike:

Now we got to meet. I want to hear those L-Tuned Exhaust!!! Why didn't you go for the SRT w/ECU intake instead??

Just received my KNN drop-in filter yesterday. Hopefully with this and the TorqueMaster plugs I get some more additional HP and TQ.

GS400 - I wish i could. I think there is only one place on Guam that can Dyno. I'm gonna check wioth my buddy cause he knows the guy. I'll let you know. I am really curious myself.

Neo - Yea, the instructions were included.

Chu, Opted for this for now. It really is just a new filter in a CAB. I wanted to try this first.

I'll post pics 2night after we are complete with the install.

Cool

Hey Mike:

In regards to the dyno. Ask them how much do they charge. Maybe your friend can get a discount rate. I am considering doing a dyno when I install the TorqueMaster plugs and KNN filter. Someone told me they were charging $150 for the dyno. I was going to drop by their shop sometime in the future to check them out also.

Its all done! (for now that is) A couple of buddies and I finished installing everything today. Everything went smooth and easy. We installed the L-tuned exhaust, the L-tuned ECU, the RMM intake, The RMM strut tower bar and the RMM carbon fiber engine cover. I couldn't be happier. Everything came together very well. I can't say more for these products. Now all I need is a Dyno. Here are the pics. This 1 is of my "certified Lexus mechanic" friends. notice the cherry on the cigarrette on the left? We planned that LOL. That damn thing almost fell into the engine bay. I woulda killed him. Everything goes very smooth when using these particular tools...hehe
