How did you go about blacking out the window trim? Also your front grille outer area, did you get the paint matched outer portion from Sewell or did you Plasti Dip this? thanks!

Man, the best time I ever got with my G-Tech was 4.9 seconds, and that was with VSC off and brake torqueing at 1,100 rpm’s. Most my times are in the low 5’s. I feel like that device is pretty accurate if you calibrate it properly. 0-60 in 4.44 seconds just seems way too quick for a near stock IS350.

well, an 08is350 tested drive were fastest of all yr, 4.7 0to 60... and juice14 did it about 4.5 seconds.... so i was hoping to get like 4.4 lolz.. 1st 2 runs, got like 4.8 , 5.0 lolz and turn off traction control, brake torque about 2000 rpm, a bit quicker then just launch the car normally .....oh and my spare tire and any tool in my trunk were gone, i never put them there.. i just build a small plywood box and put it where the spare used to be..

When are you getting you're PPE headers? If you improve on that 4.4 then I'm for sure getting them!!

They did fix the check engine light issue. The welds aren't a big deal, and I don't think they're going to pursue fixing the CEL without the o2 sensor extensions farther then they already have.

If that's the issue, I have a muffler shop in socal that can do it in under 30 min for $20 bucks max. LMK, lets make this happen!!
