if you want to see dyno numbers with just the tune and stock car I can make it work.
couple questions, first being the link to the catless headers, I haven’t found any for a 21. Second, the enhanced throttle tune, is it included in the package or is it an extra option. And do they provide a factory tune to reset if needed as well as multiple tunes for different octane? Lastly, how easy and quick was the setup for the tune. Thanks

Those are for awd but they should have rwd if you email them.

So I bought the pro tuner and it comes with 3 different tunes all together at no extra cost, they do have a button that will revert the car back to stock, as for octane I'm pretty sure they only have premium 93 octane at the moment. It was really easy to tune and setup, they provided the obdii cable plug it into your car and fire up the progam and the tune you want and it will take about 2-3 minutes and then it done.
1. True manual mode which seems useless to me
2. enhanced throttle tune
3. hp increase tune

How is it so far? I feel like I can't find anything on tuning the 2021+ IS350. I will be getting the 22 IS350 AWD and I know the infamous lexus sluggish shifting but I love the look so much that I'm very okay with it. I'm hoping to do a tune to hopefully get a more responsive throttle and maybe squeeze a little more power out of engine.

I saw on another thread you mentioned ECU reflash. Were you able to reflash to stock settings?

Car feels more enjoyable to ride whenever I want to mash the pedal.
I would recommend getting the enhanced throttle tune because I switch over to it and it makes the car and shifting feel more responsive.
I was able to reflash to stock setting, but I had bricked my ecu when retuning it so I shipped it out to D3 and they happily fixed it and shipped it back.

Okay cool - Do you know what caused the brick when reflashing? Was it the tuner issue or potential user error?

Also do you know if reflashing back to stock will maintain the warranty?

I think it was user error while flashing probably could have the cable not fully connected.
I'm not 100% sure but it should maintain the warranty.
I've been doing my own oil change and other stuff at home ever since I got the tune.

Thanks Tamtino. One last question. What made you pick the Pro tuner vs the performance tuner?

It was cheaper and instock instead of having to wait for preorders but the performance tuner is more convenient imo

here you go, no nut sack needed (works on the 300, I confirmed with them)

Did you ever get a tune for your 22’ 350?

Does anyone have any experience and feedback using this on a 2018-2020 IS 300 AWD?, I have been waiting for a solution for my 2018.

i have the d3 on my 2021 and its awesome, i really needed it to get rid of my o2 sensors issues after installing PPE catless headers. No sensor i bought for the midpipes would work at all to fix this.

d3 sent me a tune to delete the catless header issue and they are awesome to work with!
