Performance chip for 1993 ls400?

hey guys, just a question for you, are there any reliable performance chips available for my car? im looking for a chip and cai/or k and n filter to give the car some more power. i had some custom exhaust work done already and are lovin the way it sounds now and just want to help the car even more. i really done like the intake kits that have the filter sitting in the engine bay sucking in hot air lol would my best bet be to just get a k and n filter? thx

btw, i also have read about those electric supercharger kits that have the fan in the intake tube to force air in but look hokey. whatre your thoughts?

Yo, such a performance ECU does exist, and its made by a company called MINES. I am very sure that you will need to have it imported if you desire this product.

the after market intakes are not very impressive and certainly not as efficient as the stock intake.


for supercharger details visit lextreme.com, specifically the forums there are a great resource for performance mods to the 1UZ

go on clublexus and look up the intake mod.

no chips, only a MINEs ecu upgrade like brandicus said.

dont get those electric supercharger bullshits, as crappy as the cyclone crap they sell.

gotcha,

im pretty happy with it now, i did a custom exhaust from cats (hollowed) to an x pipe to (2) flowmaster super 40's and i love the sound and performance. i may just get an intake for it and call it done, maybe some wheels for it but idk.

Look into an SAFC and tune, that should unleash some hidden HP. Plus intake and exhaust and I would leave it at that. Headers also result in nice gains if you are willing to spend the money.

Why is that? I personally haven't seen dyno results from an safc on a UCF but I've seen results on GS400s and there definitely are power gains to be had.
