Where should I start with Lexus IS 200T tuning?
I’m just beginning my research into mods for my Lexus 200T. From what I can tell, it’s harder to improve the performance on this model than others. Where should I start with Lexus IS 200T tuning?

Boost controllers, cold air intake, exhaust—there are many
mod
options, depending on your goals. You’re right that it can be tricky to achieve major leaps in performance on this model. A tuning box may help your 200T reduce turbo lag and gain around 45 crank horsepower. It attaches to sensors and remaps your boost, timing, and fueling. Be aware that this is a piggyback unit. Messing with your vehicle’s ECU (on-board computer) can be very dangerous, so proceed with caution.
An intake and downpipe upgrade could create room for a few more horsepowers.
While researching, be aware that your
car insurance
coverage may need to change. Some companies won’t insure highly modified vehicles. Get the Jerry
app to make the car insurance shopping process fast and easy. You might even save hundreds of dollars by switching to a cheaper policy.MORE: Lexus paint codes
