None of them ever caused any long-term issues for me.

Just curious why this is not applicable to Lexus. I understand what was mentioned above, and feel that perhaps Lexus themselves are cautious.
M5 with the twin turbo V-8? C63 with the twin turbo V-8? Those are boosted engines so a tune will increase boost noticeably which results in a 10-20% boost in power. Add downpipes and they really wake up. The GS-F has a naturally aspirated engine - much harder to increase the volumetric efficiency and HP without adding boost (RR-Racing supercharger).

I'm sorry for not being more specific.
