I'll wait till all of you guinea pigs jump on this deal before even thinking about a tune. Last thing I want to do is compromise my reliability for a HP increase.

I share your concern, but one thing really important to remember, Toyota is one of the most conservative companies in all their engineering. Their tune will very likely allow the engine to survive a partially clogged fuel filter on 87 octane at WOT. They're THAT conservative. They don't ever want to replace an engine because something minor did not perform up to par so they build at LOT of headroom into their tune to ensure this doesn't happen. They also have some of the most aggressive responses to knock detection in the automotive industry. So, there's a LOT of potential just by fixing fuel maps and timing to be more aggressive, and for the owner who is prudent, a tune like this will be fine.

David M Martone : sounds good. still looking for an end of may release? are you going to do a group buy? and thanks again for the information. 9 minutes ago

HG Motorsports David,

Yes that is correct, end of May/June. We had a little bit of a delay, but we are finalizing everything now, and are expecting to release soon.

And yes, we will have a group buy which will be posted on the forum.

Hello everybody. Looks like we are a little late to the Club Lexus party.

Once we become sponsors to this board, we will be happy to share some information, and are excited to get involved in the community.
