Well I did mention that the garage a had a problem with recording my runs, example below is a run I made but boost isn't recorded, and sadly the run you are referring to was not recorded
Still really good results! Thanks for getting it done. I get around 4-5 pulls for $60 which is a steal.
With that power to the wheels we can definitely give the 350’s a run. A lot of the V6 fans would beg to differ, but with a bigger turbo and tuning we can make more power than even the supercharged setups.
It’s a really smooth sounding engineIt also sounds like the driver is changing gears around 5k to stay in the highest power spotI noticed I accelerate a bit faster shifting at 4500-5000

I agree, with my Evo I was smoking Excotic cars but i was a little above 600WHP on a mustang dyno...I think I have one of my runs on youtube....
That wasn't my final result though as I had few more minor upgrades that pushed me over 600 a tad and I totally agree with you about Turbo engines, my Evo was 2.0 kinda similar engine specs as ours obviously had to be built with forged internals in order to handle that kind of power, but on stock internals I was able to push it to 400WHP on the same Dyno and I was driving it for a little over 2 years with zero problems so I hope we can achieve the same with our platform with some boltons
I wouldn’t test our platform like an evo. We have everything forged except the pistons. We have aluminum alloy, safe for around +350whp. The evos have forged pistons so I don’t think we will ever come near they’re big turbo 600-800whp numbers. My whole goal was to smoke the is350 with the same full tune/bolt-ons. The 200t at 289whp 350wtq would destroy a fbo is350 all day. If we simply’ swapped our pistons and turbo then we could probably approach 600

smooth.. i guess. 8AR-FTS from 200t-- still a 4 banger. The sound is just OK IMO. i don't know if tuning helps?
the only engines that will make nice music are V8s, V10s, and V12s. everything else is vacuum cleaner.
Lexus RCF and LFA are some of the best sounding engines. Also throw in there the S85 V10 from BMW.

I think our car sounds really good if not slightly throatier than most 4cyl. sounds nothing like a screaming Honda. My friends N/A Si screams super high pitched its annoying. 4cyl wars

Your right the 4banger part makes the noise a bit of a scream rather than a nice tone, I have tried to do may things and the only thing I managed successfully was to increase it, but the tone remained the same.
The only way I see this playing out well is that manufacturers do a proper flow calculation and redesign an exhaust system just for our cars rather than for the whole IS series, and I don't see that happening and if it does it will be costly
