  • I know A LOT of people have been wondering if the #rrracing #tune is worth buying. To be honest it most definitely is! but it is not a necessity; I still think it is something you should get eventually once you get an instake pipe, exhaust and headers if you want to take to the next level. It does everything it is designed to do and I personally think rr-racing killed it with this tune. It made my 250 feel a lot more fun to drive and I could honestly say that I am happy with my purchase I hope this video answer some of you guy's questions! thanks for watching..and don't forget to like comment and subscribe!

    Thank you for sharing this video. Many of want to order RR racing tune, but had doubts. But this video is your honest opinion. As a car enthusiasts many of us appreciate that. Not pushing to go get the product. Currently own a 2014 IS350 RWD.

    Thanks for the follow up vid! I have a '16 350 and seriously thought about getting the tune, especially after Lexus revealed no new engine for 2021. This video pushed me to the 'no' side, because it seemed like the car held on to the RPMs in regular driving. I have rev matching, so when I'm busting ass, he'll stay in the power band. For my normal commute, I want Lexus Serenity. :-) Thanks again for the vids, you were a GREAT help! Keep making them.

    • @ChrisKheluram
      @ChrisKheluram  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It does hold on to the rpms which isn’t necessary a bad thing, ISF do the same where you have to change gear it won’t change for you anymore or as much. Now I do think you should get a throttle controller to give you some more throttle response. I personally feel the stock throttle is super laggy

    If anyone is wondering, I tuned my RC350 Fsport (2015). I'm hitting 353HP. Also, in manual mode, stock it did take some time to downshift from 7th to like 3rd or 4th. Now, it downshifts almost instantly. Paid $489 for the tune and it's incredible. (Private party tuner). I don't suggest a chip. You're goanna be paying upwards of 280-800 for a chip tune. Realistically, maybe hit 20-30 HP. I had one and yeah it helped a little bit, but not worth the money since I can spend an extra $150-200 for a Stage 1 and increase my HP to almost 50+.

Fsport intake and filter or k and n intake , rr tune , ppe headers , axleback exhaust,mid pipe , and lsd swap with a 2014-2016 brz (these mods beat a 350z and neck to neck to a is350) or a supercharger by rr racing stage 1 you can run up to 360 whp and last stage for the supercharger is 500+whp.

      If your gonna get a supercharger it’s reliable but if you do I recommend you to get a lower mileage transmission bc ik the engine can handle it but the transmission is not gonna handle it as well. It would be perfect to supercharge a is250 make it a sleeper .

    • @ChrisKheluram
      @ChrisKheluram  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Lol nah man no fuel pump needed, this isn’t like a stand-alone ecu tune for a 240sx.. this tune is more like a flash to your stock ecu. So it does change your fuel mapping amongst other parameters but it’s not going past it’s limit on the injectors. Lexus ecus has what’s called knock correction learning valve, which essentially means the ecu learns itself based on the knock detection but will not go past that point. You do not need a fuel pump but what I do recommend is a bottle of royal purple or STP 5-1 fuel injector cleaner, RR RACING intake tube (do not remove your stock air box), and an free flowing exhaust. As for headers you can get that later on if you wanted

Love it 💯 but today I was driving and a check engine light popped on also I was driving with trac off and after CEL cannot turn trac back on. I used my buddies ecu scanner and the code is PO172 system too rich bamk1 . I let the car sit for a bit but still the light is on with trac off . The car seems to be driving just like it was after tune and no issues idling or anything. I sent RR an email and will call them when they open.

O2 sensor etc. I would start with the easiest thing and work my way down. If your engine is still running fine and not hesitating/ misfiring I doubt it would be a faulty injector or spark plug

    I have 16 IS300 and I have been contemplating on getting the tune. I know the IS300 gets the most HP with the tune but the thing is, I don’t really drive in manual too much. Do you think it’s still worth getting the tune?

    • @ChrisKheluram
      @ChrisKheluram  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Personally yes because you do get the HP gain regardless of manual mode but you don’t get to hit the 7200 rpm. you do get the throttle response as well. So that hp gain is more then enough to feel a difference in your car

    • @ChrisKheluram

      Yes and no, I mean I would only get it if I had the extra cash laying around but you do have a 300 which will give you a noticeable increase in HP according to RR RACING dyno sheets. As for headers that will free up exhaust restrictions which in theory give you the most out of the tune but it’s not needed for the tune itself

    • @ChrisKheluram

      Mine does the same, it’s loud now but mostly because of the bad gasket on the headers.. and yeah the throttle controller does work with the tune.. you really do feel it on launch or 1-3rd gear after 4-6 it’s pretty much non existent or for your sake 5-8 gear you’ll probably lose the extra push the throttle controller gives

  • @JC-zg2id

    How bad is the tune for your car in the long run? I’m not talking like how bad is it always driving at 7.2k rpm all the time, I know that the car doesn’t like that and it wouldn’t last long. I’m talking more in general, daily driving with the occasional 0-60: how does the tune effect the car’s reliability and durability. I bought Lexus because I want something that’s fun and will last. I’m really loving the ida of this RR Racing tune, but I need to know how bad it will be on my engine first. Thanks!

    • @ChrisKheluram
      @ChrisKheluram  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      The tune isn’t bad at all RRRACING does all their testing in house on their own dyno so I’m sure a lot of R&D went into the tune before they put it out there and I’m not hyping them up but reason why I went with RRRACING was for reliability. As for driving at 7200 rpm all the time... yeah don’t do that lol but you do get more out of your powerband if you were to go full throttle. I haven’t had an issue yet.
