  1. I will be buying a Lexus IS 250 SE-L early next year.

    I have test driven the Auto just recently and am going to test drive the manual.

    But I really want an Auto, however I want to add performance to the car i.e air filter, remap, exhaust the usual.

    Are there any restrictions on tuning up an Auto?

    Cheers.

    Pick the auto, it's better all round. Mines an auto with intake & exhaust mods. Same auto box as the IS350 so no problem even if you do succeed to raise the power with an S/C. Good luck on a remap, as far as I know the 250 ECU is hack proof.

    Cheers mate yes I have been told this, no chipping or remapping is possible!

    What upgrades can be made to increase the BHP, does anyone know?

  2. Sorry mate...not my taste, but if you like'em that's fine. Car needs lowering though :shutit:...you're going to need a BBK to dress those wheels though, those little discs and calipers are really visible.

    Am only leasing the car for 12 months to see if I like it!

    So I cant lower it!!!

    However I think the Is250 will be next for me the Is220d isnt perfect... gears arent set up right and the engine rumbles a little too much in 4th and 5th gear at low revs......
