GS300 whp after light mods?
I came across one yesterday that was able to accelerate a lot harder then I expected. What type of whp numbers are you guys getting with intake, headers, full exhaust, and fuel management?
Are you sure the GS300 wasn't boosted?

He could have had a ridiculously high stall torque converter 3400+ and could have had a more agressive rear 4.11 +. These 2 things AND all bolt-on mods (intake, exhaust, headers EMS) would make a GS300 move a little better than expected...especially off the line due to the high stall TC...

If that other GS was boosted then he can put train lengths on you. As is right now, I can distance myself from a Vette C5 Z06 nicely on the highway. The 2JZ is a potent engine with a turbo. Without turbos it's missing half the engines soul. The GS300 is a pig from the factory...just too freaking slow. Maybe 10 years ago when it first came out it was ok, but by todays standards it's not fast...if a Hyundai can pull on a Lexus then there's something wrong with that picture lol.
