Your parents bought you an 11k SC300 NA right?? yeahh.... Read about NA's and backpressure.

Once your parents buy you a turbo kit, you want a free flowing exhaust with no restrictions.

i have to buy my own turbo. they said right out when i turned 16.."Get a job. Anything you want to do your car now is with YOUR money." They won't pay for anything! So contrary to belief ( i've been dealing with this all day, once people hear that i drive a Lexus..they don't care that its 12 years old, its a lexus they say you have to have money!) they are not gonna buy anything i do to my car. oh, and i had to pay 3k for my car too. hard earned money
