How much $$$? I considered an IS350, but modding those things seemed really, really expensive.

Did the passenger side with the intake have that cowling thats now sitting on the wooden chair??

im guessing so....sweet car...i like them, i would rather have standard.....and i hate that the is250 is standard, but computer controlled.......it doesnt allow you to dump the clutch type standard......the ecu takes over...

thanks for the positive comments guys. im really happy from this expensive, yet well worth it mod.

oh i forgot to mention its an IS250. the reason i didnt get an IS350 is because you cant buy one in a 6 speed manual.......

oh and on the supercharger comments, LOL if you can even get your hands on for a 2nd gen IS, be prepared to pay around $6k for the kit.

i had to bend over backwards for this intake... it actually never made it into production and what i have is a prototype. there were only 5 made and the rest are on show cars. (2 in US and other 2 in Japan). fortunately, someone from LA (with crazy connections) got his hands on 1 and just recently put it for sale because he is selling is IS. i was the first person to jump on this intake =]

Looks like you're going with the right parts for your car so far. In dedication to this thread and the new IS, I have to post a few pics of my friend/client Troy's IS-F. Still the best IS I've seen built up to date.
