Tom's S/c For Is250 Euro Spec

[pepos]

I had a talk with Dave from PROLEXUK asking him if TOM'S may do something and produce an S/C kit for IS250's EURO Spec.

To my pleasant surprize Dave replied back to me that TOM'S is willing to give a try and produce it, but needs to have 10 orders to go ahead.

Let's see if there is any interest.

9 more people from around Europe willing to make their rides a little bit faster might be something that can be achived.

9 more to go!!

What happened to the S/C IS350 though ???

[Dimitris Papamichail]

Oh man you are a Greek crazy man. Sell your IS250 and buy an ISF! By the way you need more power than a supercharger for your 19" rims ;)

[Dimitris Papamichail]

By the way have you tried Euro LOC? There are a banch of crazy German and Austria IS250 owners who want a SC!!

[pepos]

Oh man you are a Greek crazy man. Sell your IS250 and buy an ISF! By the way you need more power than a supercharger for your 19" rims ;)

I'm a crazy greek guy who can't afford to keep an ISF because of stupid Greek laws about "pothen eshes"

About 19" rims i also have a full JUNTW exhaust and an F-Sport intake with a TOM'S air filter installed.

The car is dyno'd at 239 BHP and 29 Kgrs of TQ.Have posted the chatrs on MY.IS

Now with the 19" rims i go along side with a stock IS250 until 220 Km/h.

So i believe that i lost exactly the 30 BHP that i gained with the mods i made.

The TOM'S S/C kit will give 40 BHP according to prolexuk.

At least i won't be overtaken by VW's TSI and MINI's.

Since i have no other option cause i don't wanna go to BMW or anything else, i think that an S/C kit from a reliable supplier is a pretty good deal.

BTW Dimi where can i find the Austrian guys i don't speak German and don't know if i can write in English there.

It won't fit to our cars.

I know that. It wasn't what I meant at all. I wanted to know if Dave's imported IS350 is still running OK with the Tom's S/C or has it expired?

Sorry

As far as i know it's running like a charm.

TOM'S is a very reliable tuner shop.

Until June this year there are going to be two other S/C kits available for the IS250 one from US and another one from SA but the tuners don't have TOM'S reputation.

[Dimitris Papamichail]

What about this Elias?

Bolt on SC, and top speed 271km

[pepos]

Yea this is the one from SA

The other from US will be made by Jashaanmotorsport but the data provided by both through email so far are inadequate.

The SA kit though runs on the car for 13 months now.

I can confirm the S/C IS350 is running as sweet as a nut :D

hasn't got any problems nor has it had any

as far as I know Dave is interested in selling it to pursue other projects

[Patrick Donker]

How much would the SC set me back?

I'm from Holland, btw. Do I have to bolt it on myself? I'm a total car-n00b ;)

[Ginndo]

I would be very interested in buying a s/c put me down for one

Ginndo, what kind of rims did you fit? They look extremely nice :P

I'm looking for new rims for my summer tyres.

Thanks!

[Dimitris Papamichail]

From what I have heard Peppos is planning to fit soon a SC on his IS250

where is he getting a is250 sc from then? afaik there still isnt one avail

[Dimitris Papamichail]

This is a good question. I got the news from one of the Lexus mechanics in Athens. I think he is getting it from Prolex but i am not 100% sure. The only thing i now for sure is that he will fit it soon and it will be have an aftermarket ECU and will be programmed in Athens.

[Patrick Donker]

Nothing on the Prolex site though, but if it were true, then this would be great news!

Hopefully it'll be available in Holland as well!
