I wonder how much closer the power levels between the RC200t and RC350 would be with this set up.

I bet it would put the 200t pretty darn close in the HP department and maybe higher TQ, but who knows :-D. Turbo cars from the factory normally have a good amount left in them from the factory. I guess it depends on the specs on the turbo, does anyone know the size and how much boost it is pushing? APR tunes on 2.0L audi make an extra 60ish HP and 70ish TQ. So the lexus 2.0L might be in the same ballpark... its all speculation until someone is able to tune one.

So someone with a higher trim/engine is jealous of someone with the base trim/engine that has less power, slower 0-60, less refined, and sounds worse...that's a first...maybe jealous of fuel economy, but that's it.

IMO, the RC is too heavy for the 2.0t engine. The RC200t even weighs more than the GS350 RWD.
