This. Also, if for whatever reason you could only pull together 7 or 8 IS-F's for a tune, you could see if any CL'ers with an IS250 or IS350 wanted to join in the fun.
Sounds interesting and all, but wouldn't you guys be just a little concerned that the only person who would be able to "fix" any problems with your tune is an ocean away? Having owned cars tuned with everything from reflashes to piggybacks to standalones, sometimes things need to be adjusted. Luckily in SoCal your weather is about the same year round, but if you live somewhere with seasons, what works for summer may not work well for winter. Just some food for thought.
I'll definitely be interested to see what some of you guys can accomplish with your cars though if you actually do this.

I dont think it would be all that risky. I would understand on a boosted car that was susceptible to weather variations but on an N/A car I think there is more room in the tunes for outside conditions.
I have zero experience in tuned N/A cars but am applying things I have learned from the world of boost.
Agreed!!!!
Also, You would also need at least 2 dyno sessions for each IS-F. Then a break- in period. And then weeks later, your car lights up like a Christmas tree and the person is an ocean away....
I think most owners of the F owners reside in TN. jk.... Yep, he should come to Tennessee.
Why don't you make a drive across the great state of Tennessee, through Virginia, and organize a tuning session for the mid-Atlantic IS-F crew? I am sure that all of the people running IS350 or GS rear diffs/rings could use a tune .
I'm going with Cali....and basing my evidence on the fact that they had 17 ISF's at a meet if I'm not mistaken. Do you know how hard it is to get ISF owners together?!
