Default Twin Turbo IS250

Man I was scrolling through youtube finding that blue twin turbo isf when I found this:


I think it was one of the clublexus memebers in cali that has this, either way this is how our cars SHOULD sound, awesome build....still say it should be 6 speed manual rather then a 4 speed auto in a 250. Sounds nastyyyyy though, Enjoy

He's in Florida, and i think he sold or is selling it. Understandable with all the time, work and money he put into the swap, but its a shame he didnt do any exterior mods to make it look as aggressive as it sounds.

I wish i could crank my boost from 7 to 17psi like he was running haha

EDIT: Just saw end of video that this was his video listing it for sale. haha my bad.

17 psi GTE = 475-500whp

Really depends on cams/tune/etc.... but a good base at 17psi is 475hp

I've seen this car in person and it's flawless. I remember them putting out a lot more power before. 500-700 I believe they said, but it was nowhere near 17 PSI. Not sure if they changed the setup or if I was drunk at the time....,

yeah that's the one working 2JZ swap I know of in the US... I think he was asking $45,000 for it... which given he said it'd be $30,000 just in labor to do another one seems reasonable.

(and that was on a base model where he didn't have to work around stuff like VDIM, PCS, park assist, nav, or getting the body-ECU stuff like the memory functions or rain sensors to work properly... he still has that CHECK VSC error on the dash but not much you can do for that)

HKS350 was pretty damn close. From the owners my.is post about the car:

"Car made 494rwhp 441rwtq @ 22psi on 93 Octane Pump Gas"
