APEXi Smart Accel Controller for 2014 Lexus IS 250
Today I installed an APEXi Smart Accel Throttle Controller by APEXi USA. This helps gives quicker response time to the throttle. Factory throttle response time is delayed, but this is improved from the plug and play harness offered by APEXi. Install was a little bite difficult due to the small working space by the gas pedal. Below are the links to all products that I used. Hope you guys are enjoying the content I'm putting out and I look forward to sharing my car mod journey with you guys!

How to prevent carbon build up on a 2014 Lexus IS 250 F-Sport
มุมมอง 1.4K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Today I installed an Air/Oil Separator by RR-Racing. This helps with reducing carbon build up in the engine. The IS250 does not have port injectors and gets a lot of oil in its PCV (Positive Crankcase Ventilation) line. The RR-Racing Air/Oil Separator is fully sealed and zero maintenance. The level indicator allows you to know when to periodically empty the canister. Install was very simple and...
Painting engine covers in a 2014 Lexus IS 250 F Sport
มุมมอง 5K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Hey Guys. I did a DIY project and painted my engine covers. It was a 4 day process, because I allowed for one full day of drying. The red paint defeated me because it got all over things it was not supposed to, lol, so be careful with that. This was not a bad DIY project to do at all and I really enjoyed doing it myself. The red paint just gave my engine a 'POP"! I have listed all the products ...

    when you finished installing the intake there was a shaking sound, is that normal for the first time, or did you have to do something.

    The red is fresh as life on that Lexus. About to add that same red intake on my red I S250 convertible. I ended up doing a muffler delete left the cats and resonator and just straight piped it to the back with new tips and it sounds awesome

    • @dicedixon2922
      @dicedixon2922 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have not had this happen to me 🙏. Maybe you can call the manufacturer or the company you purchased the Smart Accel from.

    • @dicedixon2922
      @dicedixon2922 ปีที่แล้ว

      I had the same problem so I called APEXI to make sure I ordered the correct harness. The rep was very helpful. Just call whatever company you decide to order from and they can point you in the right direction.

    If anyone does to do this themselves, do not spray like she did in the video. Instead, use several thin coats. If you spray one thick coat instead of several thin ones, it will have orange peel and it will not look good. There’s videos on TH-cam that show how to spray properly. Otherwise, good video!

    • @rudygeorgiamulesandcountry1594
      @rudygeorgiamulesandcountry1594 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      First, clean and decrease your components before wet sanding or spraying or decreasing. Next, remove all the dust and grit by air pressure ot tack rag on all Coats. Next, its not best practice too stand over parts laidd horizontally on the ground. Raise them up on a table or bench in a manner thee you will hold the spray can from 45° to near vertical. Them definitely spray multiple thin coats compared to one heavy one! (The directions are on the back of the can )

    Nice job 👍. Next time put the paint cans in warm water to thin out the paint it apply alot better. Nothing is better than doing it yourself 👍😁.

    So does this work inline with the sport/eco mode button switch or a separate toggle? Should it be used with it? I want to install one just wondering how it works with the sport/eco button. Cool videos keep posting!
