Five Axis Project ISF Revving - 5.8L V8
Here's video taken of the Five Axis Project ISF @ SF Wek'fest a couple weeks back. Lexus Corp. Video was taken by JavyLSU. I am in the driver's seat revving the car and rolling it out back to the Toyota Transporter outside.

Project IS F by Five Axis
Description:
Following its stunning debut in 2007, the Five Axis Project IS F went back to the shop for another makeover, this time in the engine compartment. With 416 hp on tap right out of the box, the standard IS F is no slouch. But the Project IS F concept brief included exploring the performance potential of its direct-injected 5.0-liter V8, so it now sports 5.8 liters while receiving ported and flowed cylinder heads, a new exhaust system and changes to the electronic controls. The upshot is enough power and torque to put an evil grin on even the most jaded enthusiast’s face.
Highlights:
Engine
Exhaust
Custom fabricated low restriction system with dual finishers
Exterior
Five Axis Design 6” wide body conversion
Five Axis custom satin black pearl paint with satin bronze accents
Interior
• Upholstery by Turinmodel, Inc.
• Uniquely Appointed Five Axis Design Interior
Trim and Color Enhancements
• Chilewich floor mats
Wheels
• FIVE:AD S5:F Wheels with Satin Bronze Finish
Tires
• Yokohama Advan Sport
Suspension
• TEIN Adjustable Coil-over Suspension
Brakes
• Brembo GT Brake System

Wow!!! That thing sounds like pure death...awesome.
On a side note, I was looking into the 5 axis wheels. I know you have them JoeZ. You have one of the forged rim styles in 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 right? What are the weight of your wheels if you don't mind me asking? TIA.

416 horsepower acording to these specs. I thought I read somewhere it was over 500.

C'mon 5 axis, run us some numbers. I'm guessing that it's on the better side of 550hp.

I don't think the Engine has received any more work from just before SEMA 2008.
From my in depth conversations with Troy, the enigine has been nicley upgraded... BUT there is/was NO TUNNING option that he was happy with yet...
Below are some older post of mine with some more videos you will all LOVE!!!
SEMA 2008 is over, but we brought home a little something to share with Club Lexus & my.IS members.
An in-depth Interview with Troy Sumitomo of Five Axis Design..
The main article was released this weekend on the my.IS homepage.
Also, now on the Club Lexus Homepage.
Given YouTube's time limitations, the interview appears in two parts.
Click on the Video Thumbnails below to view Part One and Part Two of our 17½-minute interview with Troy Sumitomo.
So make a bag of popcorn, sit back and enjoy these videos..
Part 1
Part 2
Those of you in SoCal, might be able to meet Troy in person & see some of the Five Axis Project cars at the up coming December 7th, 2008 meet @ Lexus of Westminster.
Thank You & Enjoy!!!
