How much HP you put to your wheels?!

Hello all C32 owners,

I like to do a little survay to see how much hp you all put to your wheels. If you could post a reply with your RW HP and if you had done anything significant to your engin (i.e. for example pully kit...etc). I really appreciate it.

Am am going for a second car and am not sure to upgrade my 03 C230 Komp to C32 and get a cheaper second car (i.e. like a Golf or something) OR keep my C230 and a get 2002 IS 300 and put a Turbo on it...with the Turbo IS can put between 400 to 450 to the wheels...only problem TURBO = Dirty + I have to Tune the thing every week...

Thanks for your time in advance

P.S. If you have your 1/4 mile time 0-60 etc and you want to share that that be great thnax

keyser, all u had to do was take 5 seconds and look, u could have found out info no problem.

Where scared of your 420hp??? No, were scared of all the ricers that will follow u around because your car is just like the one they want. Have fun with the 16 year olds.

p.s. A c32 with ecu and pulley kit will do the 1/4 mile in high 12's.

Good luck with your 2002 Lexus IS 300 with a Turbo Kit on it that makes 420 hp to the wheels and having to tune it every week.

Sorry guys about my post and being un-civilized!!! I justed to throw a little spark and get some responses!

I know how to STFF! I just thought it be cool if I started this thread and if you own the car and dynoed it it would take each one of you 2 seconds (probably less time for everyone than reading these 6 useless replys) to type in the information. And it would be usefull not only to me but for everyone here . I am usually pretty hard on people on our forum (i.e. W 203) and ask some questions thats been beeten to death and they didn't bother to STFF. Anyways...my apologies for souding arrogant, but i thought it be the only way to get a response.

As far as IS 300 being a rice rocket i have to disagree.

I am not a fan of rice rockets thats why i own a benz. but the IS is a nice car for its price and POTENTIAL.
